1-4. Operation
Do not disconnect the mains cable on the UPS system or the building wiring outlet
(shockproof socket outlet) during operations since this would cancel the protective
earthing of the UPS system and of all connected loads.
The UPS system features its own, internal current source (batteries). The UPS output
sockets or output terminals block may be electrically live even if the UPS system is not
connected to the building wiring outlet.
In order to fully disconnect the UPS system, first press the OFF/Enter button to
disconnect the mains.
Prevent no fluids or other foreign objects from inside of the UPS system.
1-5. Maintenance, service and faults
The UPS system operates with hazardous voltages. Repairs may be carried out only by
qualified maintenance personnel.
Caution -
risk of electric shock. Even after the unit is disconnected from the mains
(building wiring outlet), components inside the UPS system are still connected to the
battery and electrically live and dangerous.
Before carrying out any kind of service and/or maintenance, disconnect the batteries
and verify that no current is present and no hazardous voltage exists in the terminals of
high capability capacitor such as BUS-capacitors.
Only persons are adequately familiar with batteries and with the required precautionary
measures may replace batteries and supervise operations. Unauthorized persons must
be kept well away from the batteries.
Caution -
risk of electric shock. The battery circuit is not isolated from the input
voltage. Hazardous voltages may occur between the battery terminals and the ground.
Before touching, please verify that no voltage is present!
Batteries may cause electric shock and have a high short-circuit current. Please take the
precautionary measures specified below and any other measures necessary when
working with batteries:
－
remove wristwatches, rings and other metal objects
－
use only tools with insulated grips and handles.
When changing batteries, install the same number and same type of batteries.
Do not attempt to dispose of batteries by burning them. This could cause battery
explosion.
Do not open or destroy batteries. Escaping electrolyte can cause injury to the skin and
eyes. It is toxic.
Please replace the fuse only with the same type and amperage in order to avoid fire
hazards.
Do not dismantle the UPS system.
