About Batteries - INFOSEC HERO PRO DUAL PLUG 700 User Manual

Do not disconnect the mains cable on the UPS system or the building wiring outlet
o
(earthed shockproof socket outlet) during operations since this would cancel the
protective earthing of the UPS system and of all connected loads.
The UPS has its own internal power supply (battery). There is a risk that output
o
sockets may still be live after the UPS has been disconnected from the mains power
supply.
In an emergency situation, switch the UPS to the "Off" position and disconnect the
o
unit from the AC power supply.
When the UPS is out of order, please refer to section: "trouble shooting" and call the
o
hot line.
Equipotential earth bonding must be checked with external battery bank if any.
o
 Connected products:
Combined UPS and connected equipment leakage current should not exceed 3,5 mA.
o
Make sure that the connected load does not exceed UPS capabilities. To ensure
o
improved backup time and longer battery life, we recommend a load equivalent to 1/3
of nominal power.
Do not connect appliances or devices which would overload the UPS (e.g. big motor-
o
type equipment)) to the UPS output sockets or terminal.
Do not plug the UPS input into its own output socket.
o
Do not plug the UPS into a power strip or surge suppressor.
o
The UPS has been designed for personal computers. It should not be used with
o
electrical or electronic equipment with inductive loads such as motors or fluorescent
lights.
Do not connect any household appliances such as microwaves, vacuum cleaners,
o
hair dryers or life-support systems to the UPS.
Due to excessive consumption, laser printers should not be connected to the UPS.
o
Please replace the fuse only with the same type and amperage in order to avoid fire
o
hazards.
 About batteries:
It is recommended that a qualified technician change the battery.
o
Before carrying out any kind of service or maintenance, disconnect the batteries and
o
verify that no current is present and no hazardous voltage exists in the terminals of
high capability capacitor such as BUS-capacitors.
Do not dispose of the battery in a fire as it may explode.
o
Do not open or damage the battery! The electrolyte, fundamentally sulphuric acid,
o
can be toxic and harmful to the skin and eyes. If you come into contact with it, wash
thoroughly with water and clean dirtied clothes.
Do not throw the battery into a fire. It may explode. It has to be disposed of separately
o
at the end of its useful life. Refer to local legislation and regulations.
The UPS contains one or two large-capacity batteries. To avoid any danger of electric
o
shock do not open it/them. If a battery needs servicing or has to be replaced, please
contact the distributor.
Servicing should be performed or supervised by competent personnel who take the
o
necessary precautions. Keep unauthorised personnel away from batteries.
A battery may present a risk of electric shock and cause short circuits. The following
o
precautions should be taken by the qualified technician:

Remove watches, rings or other metal objects from hands.
