10. PreVenTIVe MaInTenance
all operations on the equipment must be carried out solely by SocoMec personnel or by authorised
service personnel.
Maintenance requires accurate functionality checks of the various electronic and mechanical parts and, if nec-
essary, the replacement of parts subject to wear and tear (batteries, fans and condensers). It is recommended
to carry out periodic specialised maintenance (annually), in order to keep the equipment at the maximum level
of efficiency and to avoid the installation being out of service with possible damage/risks. Moreover, attention
should be paid to any requests for preventive maintenance that the equipment may automatically display with
alarm/warning message.
10. 1. b
atterIes
The state of the battery is fundamental to UPS operation.
Thanks to the Expert Battery System, the information relating to the state and the conditions of use of the bat-
tery are processed in real time and the recharging and discharging procedures are selected automatically in
order to optimise battery life expectancy and offer maximum performance.
Furthermore, during the operating life of the battery, Green Power 2.0™ stores statistics on the conditions of
use of the battery for analysis.
Since the expected life of the batteries is very much dependent on operating conditions (number of charging
and discharging cycles, load rate, temperature), a periodic check by authorised personnel is recommended.
When replacing the batteries, use the same type and configuration by placing them in the appropriate
containers so as to avoid the risk of acid leakage.
the replaced batteries must be disposed of at authorised recycling and disposal centres.
do not open the plastic cover of the batteries as they contain harmful substances.
10. 2. f
ans
The life of the fans used to cool the power parts is dependent on the using and environmental conditions (tem-
perature, dust).
Preventive replacement by an authorised technician is recommended within 4 years (in normal operating conditions).
When needed, fans must be replaced as per specifications by SocoMec.
10. 3. c
apacItors
.
The equipment houses electrolytic capacitors (used in the rectifier and inverter section) and filtering capacitors
(used in the output section), whose life is dependent on using and environmental conditions.
The average expected life of these components is shown below:
•
Electrolytic capacitors: 5 years;
•
Filtering capacitors: 5 years.
In any case the effective state of the components is verified during preventive maintenance.
