For the UPS system to operate at peak efficiency, the installation site should meet the environmental
parameters outlined in this manual. The operating environment must meet the weight, clearance, and
environmental requirements specified.

The UPS system installation must meet the following guidelines:
• The system must be installed on a level floor suitable for computer or electronic equipment.
• The system must be operated at an altitude no higher than 1500m (5000 ft) without derating. For additional
assistance with high altitude operation, contact an Eaton service representative (see paragraph
1.5 Getting
• The system must be installed in a temperature and humidity controlled indoor area free of conductive
contaminants.
Do not expose the UPS to overly aggressive environments, like salt mist or corrosive gases. High relative
humidity accelerates the effects of contaminants. The UPS should be installed in a G1 environment (based on
ANSI/ISA S-71.04 classifications). If the UPS is used in a more aggressive environment, it can cause reduced
product life and possibly early failure. If the installation location does not meet the recommended environment,
contact Eaton service representative for further information (see paragraph
• The environmental requirements specified below are for the air at the intake ports of the 9155 UPS, and
are the maximum, not to exceed, ratings.

There shall be at least a 1.8°F (1.0°C) difference between the dry bulb temperature and the wet bulb
temperature, at all times, to maintain a non-condensing environment.
The maximum rate of temperature change shall be limited to 3°F over 5 minutes (36°F/hour), based on
the ASHRAE Standard 90.1-2013.
