12. The following precautions should be taken when working with Supercapacitors:
a. Remove watches, rings and other jewelry or metal objects.
b. Use only tools with insulated handles.
c. Wear rubber gloves and boots.
d. Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of unit.
e. Disconnect charging source prior to connecting or disconnecting Supercap terminals.
13. To reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect the UPS from the AC input power supply before
installing a communication interface cable. Reconnect the power cord only after
communication interconnections have been made.
14.
DANGER:
To reduce risk of fire, use only No. 26 AWG or larger telecom line cord.
15.
DANGER: (For 700-3000VA 230V Models Only)
: To reduce risk of fire, connect only to a
circuit provided with 20 amperes maximum branch circuit over-current protection in
accordance with the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA 70”.
16.
DANGER: (For 3000VA 120V Models with I/P Terminal Block Only)
: To reduce risk of fire,
connect only to a circuit provided with 30 amperes maximum branch circuit over-current
protection in accordance with the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA 70”.
17.
DANGER: (For 700-2000VA 120V Models with I/P Terminal Block Only)
: To reduce risk of
fire, connect only to a circuit provided with 20 amperes maximum branch circuit overcurrent
protection in accordance with the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA 70”.
The instructions contained within this safety manual are extremely important and should be
closely followed at all times during installation and follow-up maintenance of the UPS and
batteries or Energy Storage Unit.
The unit contains dangerous voltage levels. If the UPS is on, but not connected to an AC power
supply, the unit’s outlets may still be energized with voltage due to the presence of an internal
power source, i.e. the battery or Supercapacitor Energy Storage Unit.
The unit should be installed indoors in an area free of electrically-conductive contaminants. The
unit should be installed in a temperature and humidity controlled environment in order to reduce
the risk of electric shock.
Only the power cord that is supplied with the unit should be used to connect it to the AC power
supply. The equipment should also be located as close as possible to the AC supply.
Servicing and maintenance should only be carried out by qualified service personnel.
Before carrying out fuse replacement or shipping the unit, first ensure that the unit is turned off
completely and all cables are disconnected.
CAUTION!
