For safety concerns, we suggest that you shall:
1. Surroundings of the installation area with CO2 or dry powder fire extinguishers.
2. Install the UPS in an area where the walls, floors and ceilings were constructed by fireproof
materials.
It is recommended that you parallel the external battery cabinets to the UPS. The following
clearances are suggested:
1. Keep a clearance of 100cm from the top of the UPS for maintenance, wiring and ventilation.
2. Keep a clearance of 100cm from the back of the UPS and the external battery cabinets for
ventilation.
3. Keep a clearance of a 150cm from the front of the UPS and the external battery cabinets for
maintenance and ventilation.
3.4.3 Transportation
Warning
The UPS is fixed on the pallet with four balance supports. When removing them,
pay attention to the movement of the casters to avoid accidents.
The cabinet can be pushed forward or backward only. Pushing it sideward is not
allowed. When pushing the cabinet, take care
not to overturn it as the gravity center is high.
If you need to move the UPS over a long distance, please use appropriate equipment like a
forklift. Do not use the UPS casters to move the over a long distance.
After the UPS has been removed from the pallet to ground, we suggest that at least three
people move the UPS to the installation area. One person use hands to hold a lateral side of
the UPS, one person hold the other lateral side of the UPS with hands, and one person use
hands to push the UPS either from the front side or from the backside to move the unit to the
installation area and avoid tipping the UPS.
The casters are designed to move on level ground. Do not move the UPS on an uneven
surface. This might cause damage to the casters or tip the UPS which could damage the unit.
Ensure that the UPS weight is within the designated surface weight loading of any handling
equipment.
At the bottom of the UPS, there are four casters to help you to move the UPS to a designated
area. Before you move the UPS, please turn the four leveling feet counterclockwise to raise
them off the ground. This protects the leveling feet from damage when moving the UPS.
Please use sufficient manpower(at least six people) and equipment (e.g. forklift) to carefully
move the UPS from its pallet to ground. Please pay attention to the movement of the casters to
avoid accidents.
