SAFETY WARNINGS   

(SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS)

 

This manual contains important safety instructions. Please read and follow all instructions carefully 
during installation and operation of the unit. Read this manual thoroughly before attempting to 
unpack, install, or operate your UPS. 
 
This equipment can be operated by any individuals with no previous training. 
 
The AC power outlet must be installed near the UPS and must be easily accessible. 
 
During the installation of the UPS, it should be assured that the sum of the leakage currents of the 
UPS and the connected loads does not exceed 3.5mA. 
 
Attention, hazardous through electric shock. Also with disconnection of this unit from the mains, 
hazardous voltage still may be accessible through supply from battery. The battery supply should be 
therefore disconnected in the plus and minus pole at the quick connectors of the battery when 
maintenance or service work inside the UPS is necessary. 
 
Do not dispose of batteries or battery pack in a fire, the battery may explode. 

 

Do not open or mutilate the batteries. Electrolyte is harmful to the skin and eyes.   
 
To reduce the risk of fire, connect only to a circuit provided with 30 amperes maximum branch circuit 
overcurrent protection in accordance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI / NFPA 70.

HOW TO DETERMINE THE POWER REQUIREMENTS OF YOUR 

EQUIPMENT 

 

1.  Insure that the equipment plugged into the battery power-supplied outlets does not exceed the 

UPS unit’s rated capacity (3000VA/2200W for PR3000E). If rated unit capacities are exceeded, an 
overload condition may occur and cause the UPS unit to shut down or the circuit breaker to trip. 

2.  If the power requirements of your equipment are listed in units other than Volt-Amps (VA), convert 

Watts (W) or Amps (A) into VA by doing the calculations below. Note: The below equation only 
calculates the maximum amount of VA that the equipment can use, not what is typically used by 
the equipment at any one time. Users should expect usage requirements to be approximately 60% 
of below value. 

 
TO ESTIMATE POWER REQUIREMENTS 

 
1.              Watts (W) x 2.0 =                    VA or               Amps (A) x 230 =       VA 
2. Add the totals up for all pieces of equipment and multiply this total by 0.6 to calculate actual 
requirements. There are many factors that can affect the amount of power that your computer 
system will require. The total load that you will be placing on the battery-powered outlets should not 
exceed 80% of the unit’s capacity. 
 

DIRECTIONS TO MOUNT THE UPS IN THE RACK 

 
1. Assemble the handlebars to the rack mount brackets (ears) as 

shown in the figures, using the flat head screws (M4.0*8mm) 
provided. 

2. Assemble the two ears to the both sides of the UPS enclosure 

as shown in the figures, using the flat head screws (M5.0*8mm) 
provided. 

3

 

. Install the UPS at or near the bottom of the rack. 

CAUTION!    At least two people are required when mounting 
the UPS in the rack due to its weight. 

The battery pack may be 

removed while mounting it in the rack. 
 

HARDWARE INSTALLATION GUIDE 

 
1. To connect auxiliary battery pack : 

a. Remove the protection cover on the UPS rear panel. 
b. Connect the black wire and the red wire of the Battery Pack to the negative (-) / black terminal 

and the positive (+) / red terminal of the PR3000E respectively. (See below figure) 

 

Note:

 

Due to the large current, make sure to connect the positive to positive and the 

negative to negative. Otherwise, it may cause a short circuit and the unit may be 
irreversibly damaged.

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

2. 

Recharging the battery for at least four hours

 is recommended to insure that the battery’s 

maximum charge capacity is achieved. Charge loss may occur during shipping and storage. To 

recharge the battery, simply leave the unit plugged into an AC outlet. 

3. Connect the equipment to your UPS outlets. The IEC-IEC and the IEC 

to Schuko power cords coming with the unit are used to connect your 
computer and monitor to the UPS. Items such as copiers, laser 
printers, vacuums, space heaters, or other large electrical devices 
should not be connected to the UPS. Please make sure that the total 
loads of your equipments are less than the maximum total power load 
of your UPS. 

4. Plug UPS power cord to a wall outlet. Please avoid using extension 

cords and adapter plugs. (To maintain optimal battery charge, leave 
the UPS plugged in at all times.) 

5. Press the UPS power button to turn it on. The “Power On” indicator 

will be illuminated in “Green”. 

6. Install your software and accessories. To use the software, simply 

connect the enclosed serial interface cable to the serial port on the UPS and an open serial port 
on the computer.

Power Switch 

 

Press the power button to turn the UPS ON or OFF. 
 
 

 

Test Switch 

 

 

Press this button to perform a self test of your UPS. This UPS also performs a self 
test automatically when powered on. After the UPS passes the test, it returns to 
on-line operation. If the UPS fails the self-test, please recharge the battery for at least 
4 hours and perform another self-test. If it fails after recharging the battery, please 
replace the battery. In battery mode, you can press this button to silence an audible 
alarm. 

 

Power On Indicator 

 

This LED is illuminated when the utility condition is normal and the UPS outlets are   
providing “clean power”, free of surges and spikes. 

 

 

AVR Indicator

 

 

 
This LED indicates that the UPS is operating in automatic voltage regulation mode. 
When the led is illuminated continuously, it indicates input over-voltage and the UPS 
unit bucks the voltage. When the led is flashed in rotation, it indicates that the UPS 
unit boosts input voltage. 

 

 

 

Using Battery Indicator 

 
This LED illuminates during utility failure, indicating that the battery is supplying 
power to the battery-power supplied outlets. 

 

 

Battery Level Indicator 

  

This indicator shows a visual indication of the battery charge. When battery capacity 
is under 20%, no indicator LED will illuminate. If the battery capacity is under 20% 
even after 8-hour charge, the batteries may be worn out. 

 

 

 

Load Leve  Indicators 

l

 

 
This indicator shows a visual indication of the UPS load. The load indicator LED will 
turn orange if the load is between 80% and 100%. If the load is under 20%, no 
indicator LED will illuminate. 
 
 

 

Circuit Breaker Reset for Overload Protection 

 
Resettable circuit breakers provide optimal overload protection. 
 

 

 

Battery Backup and Surge Protection Outlets 

 

The UPS provides 4 battery powered and surge protected outlets for 
connected equipment to insure temporary uninterrupted operation 
during a power failure and against surges and spikes. 

 

 

 

 

 

Individual Backup Power for Critical Load 

The UPS provides one battery powered and surge protected outlet for 
the most critical connected equipment and insures temporary 

ninterrupted operation of connected equipment during a power failure. 

u

  
NOTE: When the UPS is overloaded, the UPS will interrupt power 
supply to the 4 battery outlets and leave the one outlet for critical
