INSPECTION/STORAGE/DISPOSAL

Inspection
Upon receipt of the UPS, an inspection for shipping damage should be performed. Use
caution when removing the unit from the pallet. Refer to labels or documentation attached
to packing material.
Unpacking
Check the unit for loose, broken, bent or otherwise damaged parts. If damage has
occurred during shipping, keep all original crating and packing materials for return to the
shipping agent. The warranty does not apply to damage incurred during shipping.
Ensure that the rated capacity and the model number specified on the nameplate conform
to the order specifications.
Storage
During periods of non-use, the following guidelines are recommended for storage.
Storage Preparation
1. Power up the UPS and allow it to operate with no load for at least 8 hours to fully charge
the batteries.
2. Stop the unit.
3. Disable the COLD START function prior to storing the unit by following the instructions
in section 13.6
4. Ensure all switches are in the Off position.
Storing Conditions
• For best results, store the UPS in the original shipping container and place on a wood or
metal pallet.
• Storage temperature: 5 – 122 °F (-15 to 50 °C).
• The recommended storage temperature is 59 to 77 °F (15 to 25 °C). A higher ambient
temperature will require recharging the batteries more frequently during storage.
Avoid the following storage locations:
• Locations that are subject to extreme temperature changes or high humidity.
• Locations that are subject to high levels of dust or metal particles.
• Locations that are subject to excessive vibration.
• Inclined floor surfaces.
Storage Maintenance
• If stored at an ambient temperature less than 68 °F (20 °C), recharge the batteries every
9 months.
• If stored at an ambient temperature of 68 – 86 °F (20 – 30 °C), recharge the batteries
every 6 months.
• If stored at an ambient temperature of 86 – 104 °F (30 – 40 °C), recharge the batteries
every 3 months.
