3 Safety
3.1 General safety instructions
Read and observe the user manual and safety instructions in this chapter before
taking any further action (transportation, storage, connection, startup, etc.).
Since the UPS equipment uses mains voltage and incorporates an appropriate
energy accumulator (high-capacity batteries) either on the inside or outside of
the device, the instructions in this chapter are very important for all users and
personnel. For this reason, safety information on batteries and battery packs is
also provided here. When using external battery packs, you must also follow the
safety instructions in the accompanying manual.
Work on the UPS equipment may only be performed by authorized technical
personnel.
3.2 Transportation and storage
The UPS may only be transported to its destination in the original packaging.
The same applies for removals or returns.
The equipment may not be transported or stored upside down.
Position the equipment securely during transportation taking the centre of
gravity into account. Due to their weight, UPS equipment with built-in batteries
may drop suddenly if their position shifts slightly.
During storage, secure positioning of the equipment must also be ensured.
3.3 Setup
The UPS is intended for use in ventilated rooms.
During setup or installation, the installation location prescribed by the
manufacturer must be observed.
If the UPS is exposed to extreme and rapid temperature changes, there is a
risk of condensation. Before taking any further steps, the equipment should be
allowed to acclimatise for at least 2 hours.
Never set up or operate the equipment in a damp environment.
Keep fluids away from the equipment.
