VENTILATION AND COOLING
The heat produced by the UPS is transferred to the environment by its internal fan(s).
Fig. 4.5-1 Airflow through the LP33 Series 20 & 30
Airflow through the UPS
It is important that the cooling air can freely flow
through the air inlets and outlets of the UPS.
NOTE !
Insufficient distances on both sides of the
UPS could increase the temperature inside
the UPS.
Do not put any object on the top of the
cabinet: it might obstruct the air flow.
Heat evacuation from UPS
room
The heat must be evacuated
from the environment with a
proper cooling / ventilation
system provided by the user.
