Initial start-up
Never energise the equipment before a check has been carried out by trained personnel.
Subsequent start-ups
Initiate the start-up procedure with all machine disconnect switches in open condition.
Handling 1
Power supply units are very heavy machines. Always make sure that handling operations are carried
out by expert personnel and check the load-bearing capacity of raised floors.
Handling 2
Do not store the UPS in a tilted position or on one side.
Installation environment 1
Appliance not suitable for bathrooms or similar damp environments (see: “Environmental
consideration”) and only suitable for use in closed environments.
Installation environment 2
The UPS is not suitable for installation in locations exposed to shocks and vibrations, e.g.: road
vehicles, railway vehicles, cableway vehicles, airplanes, ships or similar (such as cranes, overhead
travelling cranes, moving or vibrating parts of machine tools…)
Installation environment 3
Never install the UPS in locations with explosive, aggressive, corrosive or saline atmosphere.
Positioning
Always install the UPS well away from any sources of heat.
Position the UPS in rooms with sufficient ventilation.
Always install the UPS in closed areas: Never install the units outdoors.
Install the UPS in a dust-free environment: any dust entering the system may prevent it from cooling
properly.
Place the UPS on the solid and even surface extending further than the machine base in all directions.
Please respect the values in figure 10 of this manual and the warnings in chapter “Installation”.
Tidiness of the installation location
The area where the UPS is installed must be kept clean and dry to prevent any solid or liquid material
from being drawn into the UPS. Otherwise, malfunctioning and fire hazard can occur.
Repair work
Never try to repair the machine on your own: refer to the manufacturer or to an authorized service
centre. Any repair work made to the equipment not explicitly authorized or carried out by Siel, beside
involving actual danger, implies the immediate cancellation of warranty. Siel shall not be liable for
any consequent malfunctioning and for any arising loss or damages.
