The UPS does not require maintenance by the user, however, battery maintenance in recommended in
accordance with IEEE Recommended Practice for Maintenance, Testing and Replacement of
Valve-Regulated Lead-Acid (VRLA) Batteries for Stationary Applications (IEEE Std 1188-1996). When
the batteries expire, trained battery service personnel must replace them. A certified disposal/recycling
company should carry out disposal/recycling of the UPS and/or batteries. Exhausted rechargeable
batteries are classified as “harmful toxic waste” and as such the law demands that they be disposed of/

The typical battery life cycle is 3 to 5 years, at an ambient temperature of 77°F (25°C), however battery
life is also dependent on the frequency and duration of mains failures or battery discharge cycles.
The BATTERY TEST (see section titled “Battery Test”) should be carried out periodically (6 to 12
months) in order to ascertain the general condition of the batteries.
