4. Installation
Before installing the UPS, please read below to select a proper location to install the UPS.
⚫
UPS should be placed on the flat and clean surface. Place it in an area away from vibration,
dust, humidity, high temperature, flammable liquids and gases, corrosive and conductive
contaminants. Install the UPS indoors in a clean environment, where it is away from
window and door.
⚫
It’s required to maintain the maximum altitude of 1000m to keep UPS normal operation at
full load UPS. If it’s used in high alt
itude area, please reduce the connected load. Altitude
derating power with connected loads for UPS normal operation is listed as below:

Since fans lose efficiency with altitude, force
air-cooled equipment will have a smaller derating.
⚫
Place UPS: This UPS is equipped with the fan for cooling. Therefore, place the UPS in a
well-
ventilated area. It’s required to maintain the minimum clearance of 100mm in the front
of the UPS and 300mm in the back and two sides of the UPS for heat dissipation and
easy-maintenance.
