Important Safety Instructions
continued
• Do not use this equipment within oxygen-enriched atmospheres, or within 0.3 m (1 ft.) of a point
at which an oxygen-enriched atmosphere is intentionally vented.
• Use caution when lifting UPS. Because of the considerable weight of all UPS systems, at least
two people should assist in lifting and installing them.
• Install your UPS indoors, away from excess moisture or heat, dust or direct sunlight.
• For best performance, the UPS should be used in a location that meets the following conditions:
Temperature: 0 to 40° C (32 to 104° F); Humidity: 0 to 95% (non-condensing);
Elevation: <6,562 ft. (2,000 m) above sea level; Pressure: >95kPa
• Leave adequate space around all sides of the UPS for proper ventilation. Do not obstruct its vents
or fan openings.
• Do not mount unit with its front or rear panel facing down (at any angle). Mounting in this manner
will seriously inhibit the unit’s internal cooling, eventually causing product damage not covered
under warranty.
• UPS is not intended for patient contact. Avoid installation that will cause accidental contact of
patients.
UPS Connection Warnings
• The UPS contains its own energy source (battery). The output terminals may be live even when
the UPS is not connected to an AC supply.
• Connect your UPS to a properly grounded AC power outlet. Do not modify the UPS’s plug in a
way that would eliminate the UPS’s connection to ground. Do not use adapters that eliminate the
UPS’s connection to ground.
• Do not plug your UPS into itself; this will damage the UPS and void your warranty.
• If you are connecting your UPS to a motor-powered AC generator, the generator must provide
filtered, frequency-regulated output.
• To remove the UPS from the supply mains, the plug serves as a disconnect device.
• Once connected, do not limit access to the input plug. The plug must be accessible to be used as
a means of disconnection.
• When connecting your UPS to the power outlet, ensure that the power outlet is provided with
suitable overcurrent protection in accordance with your national and local electrical codes. Ensure
that the overcurrent protection has a minimum of 1500A breaking capacity.
CAUTION: Do not remove cover for 5 minutes after disconnecting all sources of
supply. Risk of electric shock—hazardous live parts inside. Do not remove cover.
No user serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.
This UPS receives power from more DC sources; disconnection of the AC and DC
source is required to de-energize the unit before servicing.
CAUTION: To ensure proper grounding with supply mains power, the input cord must
be connected with an approved country-specific plug with a protective earth ground
connection.
CAUTION: If this product is operated on battery (not connected to mains power),
adequate safeguards should be employed to protect against accidental contact
with AC power conductors.
CAUTION: Do not exceed total rated output.
WARNING: No modification of this equipment is allowed.
