Installation Preparation
2.3.1
Location
To extend the UPS life, the chosen place must offer:
Convenient wiring
Adequate operator access area
Good ventilation to meet the heat dissipation requirements
No corrosive gas, such as sulfur dioxide and so on
No excessive moisture or heat source
No excessive dust
Compliance with fire-fighting requirements
Operating temperature compliant with the specifications, see Table 1-2 for details
2.3.2
Environmental Requirement
UPS room
The UPS is designed for indoor installation, which should be installed in a clean and
well-ventilated environment, to keep the ambient temperature within the specifications.
The internal fans provide forced air cooling for the UPS. Cooling air enters the UPS through
the ventilation holes on the front panel, and exhausts the hot air through the back ventilation
holes. Therefore, do not obstruct the ventilation holes. Maintain at least 200mm clearances
between the front, rear of the UPS and the wall or adjacent equipment (see Figure 2-3), to
avoid obstructing the UPS ventilation and heat dissipation. Otherwise, the UPS internal
temperature will rise, which will shorten the UPS life.
If necessary, an indoor exhaust fan should be installed to keep the indoor temperature from
rising. An air filter should be used in a dusty environment where the UPS is to be operated.
