BATTERY REPLACEMENT
DO NOT
Allow unauthorised personnel near the batteries. Servicing should be performed by qualified, knowledgeable personnel only
DO NOT
Dispose of batteries in a fire. Batteries may explode when exposed to flame
DO NOT
Open or modify the battery or batteries in any way. Released electrolyte is harmful to the skin and eyes and maybe extremely toxic
DO NOT
Attempt to alter any battery wiring or connectors. Attempting to alter wiring can cause injury
DO
Ensure personnel servicing the batteries are all knowledgeable on the required precautions for battery servicing
DO
Replace the batteries with the same type and number of batteries or battery packs
DO
Dispose of the batteries responsibly. Please refer to local regulations and disposal requirements
DO
Determine if the battery is inadvertently grounded. If inadvertently grounded, remove source to ground. Contact with any part of a grounded
battery can result in electrical shock. The likelihood of shock can be reduced if grounds are removed during installation and maintenance
(applicable to equipment and remote battery supplies not having a grounded supply circuit).
DO
Disconnect charging source prior to connecting or disconnecting battery terminals
Batteries can present a risk of electrical shock or burn from high short circuit current. Observe the following precautions:
Remove watches, rings, or other metal objects
Use tools with insulated handles
Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries
Wear rubber gloves and boots
REPLACING THE EBM
For the C300RR rotation module: If a Power distribution unit (PDU) is connected to the UPS, turn the Mains Bypass Switch
(MBS) to bypass and switch off the input, it is then safe to replace the EBM(s). If a PDU is not connected to the UPS,
turn off the UPS and disconnect from the mains supply before then replacing the EBM.
To replace the EBM(s):
1.
Unplug the EBM power cable and battery detection cable from the UPS. If additional EBM(s) are installed,
unplug the EBM power cable from each EBM
2.
Replace the EBM(s)
•
Plug the EBM cable(s) into the battery connector(s)
•
Verify that the EBM connections are secure and that adequate bend radius and strain relief exist for each
cable
•
Connect the EBM cable to the UPS
To test new batteries:
1.
Charge the batteries for 48 hours.
2.
Press and hold the
button for 10 seconds to start the battery test.
3.
Select Single battery test
ALWAYS ENSURE ANY NEW EBMS ARE OF THE SAME VOLTAGE AS THESE BEING REPLACED.
DO NOT DISCONNECT THE BATTERIES WHILE THE UPS IS IN BATTERY MODE
CONSIDER ALL WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, AND NOTES BEFORE REPLACING BATTERIES
ELECTRIC ENERGY HAZARD. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ALTER ANY BATTERY WIRING OR CONNECTORS.
THE EBM IS HEAVY AND REQUIRES A MINIMUM OF 2 PEOPLE TO LIFT INTO RACKING.
A SMALL AMOUNT OF ARCING MAY OCCUR WHEN CONNECTING AN EBM TO THE UPS.
THIS IS NORMAL AND WILL NOT CAUSE SHOCK. INSERT THE EBM CABLE INTO THE UPS BATTERY CONNECTOR
QUICKLY AND FIRMLY
