Transport/Storage
NOTE
Check for sufficient floor and elevator loading capacity. Move the UPS and the battery pack in
its original package to the final destination room. Do not stack other package on top.
WARNING!
Pay attention to the HEAVY WEIGHT of the UPS when removing the UPS from the pallet! Never
try to lift the unit by yourself!
No liability can be accepted for any transport damage when the equipment is not shipped in original packaging.
Store the UPS in a dry location with the batteries in a fully charged state. Storage temperature must be within -20
+45°C (-4°F and 113°F). If the unit is stored for a period exceeding 3 months, optimal battery lifetime is obtained if
the storage temperature does not exceed 30°C (86°F).
If the unit is stored for an extended period of time, the batteries must be recharged periodically. Connect the unit
to a wall outlet and recharge the batteries for 24 hours:
• if the storage temperature is within -20 and +30°C (-4°F and 86°F): every 3 months
• if the storage temperature is within -20 and +45°C (-4°F and 113°F): every 1 month
CAUTION
In case of storage, pay attention to:
Maintenance And Servicing
• All maintenance and servicing, except replacement of the batteries and plug-in cards, is to be carried out
by qualified skilled personnel only
• A battery can present a risk of electrical shock and high short circuit current
• Never dispose of batteries in a fire: they may explode
• Do not open or mutilate batteries: their contents may be extremely toxic. If exposed to electrolyte, wash
immediately with plenty of water
• The batteries must be disconnected during maintenance or service work
• When replacing the batteries, use only the same type and size battery
• The following precautions should be observed when working on batteries:
ᴏ Remove watches, rings or other metal objects
ᴏ Use tools with insulated handles
ᴏ Wear rubber gloves and boots
ᴏ Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries
ᴏ Disconnect charging source prior to connecting or disconnect battery terminals
ᴏ Determine if the battery is inadvertently grounded. If inadvertently grounded, remove source of
ground. Contact with any part of a grounded battery can result in electrical shock. The likelihood
of such shock will be reduced if such grounds are removed during installation and maintenance.
• Avoid charging in a sealed container
