5.4.1 UPS location

WARNING !
UPS installation and connection must be performed by QUALIFIED SERVICE
PERSONNEL only.
If optional cabinets and accessories are included with the UPS, please refer to those
accompanying manuals for installation and operating instructions.
Preferably to install the UPS on concrete or other "non combustible" surface.
Check for sufficient floor load capacity before installing the UPS and the battery. Refer to Section 5.1.1.
It is important to have a clean, dust-free place provided with proper ventilation or air-conditioning to
keep the ambient within the specified operating range.
The recommended air inlet temperature is from 20°C (68°F) to 25°C (77°F) (max. 35°C / 95°F).
Refer to Section 5.5.
For battery installation follow the local codes and the recommendation of the battery supplier.
NOTE !
Temperature is very important for valve-regulated batteries (maintenance free).
Operation at temperatures higher than 77°F (25°C) will reduce battery life.
A single-phase power socket should be provided for connection of power tools, test equipment or
connectivity devices.

Min. The UPS cabinet can be positioned against the
wall but, in order to improve the ventilation and
to make easier the maintenance operations for
UPS and battery, we recommend a minimum
distance of 200 mm (8") from the wall.
The right side of the UPS cabinet must be
accessible for maintenance operation.
Clearance around the front should be
sufficient to enable free passage of personnel
with the door fully opened.
Recommended minimum clearance between
ceiling and top of the UPS should be 400 mm
(16") for proper cooling air exhaust.
In case of optional cabinets (THD filters,
transformers, battery), the additional cabinets
must be placed beside the left end of the UPS
cabinet face.
See Section 10. – OPTIONS.
