Storage of battery

The battery life depends very much on the ambient temperature. It is therefore important to follow the storage
instructions/recommendation of the battery manufacturer. For long-term storage make sure that the battery is fully
recharged every 6 months. Before and after storing, charge the battery.
Always store the batteries in a dry, clean, cool environment in their original packaging. If the packing container is
removed protect the batteries from dust and humidity.
WARNING!
1.4.5.2

Storage of UPS

If you plan to store the UPS prior to use, keep the UPS unpacked in a dry, clean and cool storage room with an
ambient temperature between (-25 °C to +70°C) and humidity of less than 95% non-condensing.
If the packing container is removed protect the UPS from dust.
!
NOTE!

SITE PLANNING AND POSITIONING

1.5

1.5.1 PLANNING BEFORE THE INSTALLATION

The equipment must be installed and transported in a upright position. The equipment requires space to
bottom/front and back to enable cooling airflow. It is required to arrange ventilation of the UPS room.
All parts of the UPS for service and user access are accessible from the front and rear, making it a service-friendly
and maintenance-friendly UPS. Reserve enough space from the front (min. 600 mm)
The UPS should be located where:

Humidity (< 95 % non-condensing) and temperature (+20° and +25°C ) are within prescribed limits

Fire protection standards are respected

Cabling can be performed easily

Available front accessibility for service or periodic maintenance

Requested air cooling flow should be granted

The air conditioning system should have sufficient amount of air cooling needed to keep the max. room
temperature rise at desired level:

Dust or corrosive/explosive gases must be absent

The place is vibration free

Only front access is necessary for service and maintenance.

If the UPS will be installed in bayed enclosures, partition walls have to be installed as well.
An ambient temperature of +20°C to +25°C is recommended to achieve a long life of the UPS and batteries. The
cooling air entering the UPS must not exceed +40 °C. Avoid high ambient temperature, moisture and humidity. The
floor material should be non-flammable and strong enough to support the heavy load.
SEALED BATTERIES MUST NEVER BE STORED IN A DISCHARGED OR
PARTIALLY DISCHARGED STATE.
EXTREME TEMPERATURE, UNDER- AND OVERCHARGE AND
OVERDISCHARGE WILL DESTROY BATTERIES!
THE UPS SYSTEM, THE BATTERY CABINET AND THE BATTERIES ARE HEAVY
AND MAY TIP DURING TRANSPORTATION CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY IF
UNPACKING INSTRUCTIONS ARE NOT CLOSELY FOLLOWED.
