Installation
2.1 General
Your International Power Machines BalancedPower II–S (BPII–S) UPS is UL–listed
and designed for installation on the computer room floor. Its attractive computer-like
appearance and quiet operation eliminate any necessity of creating special facilities to house
the UPS. Since all modern computer rooms utilize environmentally controlled conditions,
installation in such a locale will normally suffice to meet the needs of the UPS.
In the event that computer room installation is not practical, the selection of a
location for the UPS is critical to the performance of the system and to the life expectancy of
its components. Failure to select a site which meets all requirements specified in this section
can result in excessive maintenance problems.
Operating temperature range for batteries is 0
C to 40
C (32
F to 104
F). Battery
warranty is conditional upon application at or below 25
C (75
F). Continuous operation
above 25
C may reduce or void battery warranty.
2.2 Mechanical Preparation of UPS
The UPS can be fully accessed from the front, top and left side for operation and
maintenance. Rear access is required for installation.
The following steps should be taken, in the order indicated:
1. Insure that all packing is removed from
the UPS.
2. The UPS can be rolled off the shipping
pallet by removing the support block at
the rear of the unit and using the plywood
backing as a ramp.
