REV 1.3 INTRODUCTION The new and improved HUGO-X1R is a 350W interruptible power supply (UPS) that is designed to support gas tankless water heaters, direct vent space heaters, vent free space heaters, boilers, furnaces, or any other gas-powered appliances. The UPS can also be used to charge mobile devices such as mobile phones, tablets, laptops, modems, and routers.
HUGO USER MANUAL REV 1.3 WORKING PRINCIPLE When the utility power is normal, the UPS will transfer the utility power to downstream application. During a power outage or when the utility power is below 92v or above 138v, the UPS will transfer to inverter mode.
HUGO USER MANUAL REV 1.3 • LED DISPLAY • INSTALLATION Ensure that the ON/OFF switch is in the “OFF” position during installation. The UPS can store a significant amount of power for an extended period. AC/DC voltage may be present at the output terminals even when the input terminals are 1.

7. Double check wiring to ensure the connection is correct, close and lock the side panel as shown below. 8. Finally, connect HUGO’s power cord with the main power outlet. NOTE: HUGO’s rated input and output is 115 volts, can be fitted to any circuit breaker rated 15A. Ensure all connects are correct and that the input and output power cord is properly grounded.
HUGO USER MANUAL REV 1.3 At any time, the UPS detects overload or under/over voltage as indicated by the LED display or chirping alarm, it will attempt delay restarts. Once such issue is resolved, i.e., battery charge is normal or load is under 350w, the UPS will automatically restart and remove any fault indicators.
MUST unplug the “Temp.Flow” port as shown below in order for HUGO to function properly. With this setup, HUGO will provide AC output automatically and continuously whenever there is a power loss and operate in battery mode; when power restores, city power will automatically recharge HUGO and pass-thru city power to downstream appliances.
Place wire cap or insulation tape over the removed wires to ensure no conductors are exposed if • touched accidentally. h) Feed your appliance’s power cord from the outside of HUGO’s wiring box to get inside the HUGO unit, as shown below: P A G E | 13 SAFEGUARD POWER SOLUTIONS 855.484.6797...
At this time, the “INV” LED light will be steady green. Once a power outage is detected, HUGO will first chirp once to alert user HUGO is in inverter mode. The chirp will continue once every 30 seconds and will auto shutoff after 5 minutes.
HUGO will auto reset. Refer to “Protection – Overload or Short Circuit Protection” in section 13 below. When city power is restored after a power outage, HUGO will start charging itself and reset to utility power mode after 10 minutes. This time delay will allow power grid to become steady to •...
Though no necessary, but it is strongly recommended to install any 3 party surge protection on the wall outlet where HUGO is plugged in. This added protection will also • prevent any HUGO board burnouts when city power is unstable.
