    1. INTRODUCTION Thank you for buying the Mesta Electronics UPS! You are now an owner of a TRULY UNINTERRUPTIBLE POWER SUPPLY. No other system on the market can match your UPS. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS—This manual contains important instructions that should be followed during installation and maintenance of the UPS and its batteries.
  • Page 6: General Description

    The Mesta UPS system provides this kind of comprehensive protection by maintaining a clean, well- regulated flow of power to critical loads, regardless of the quality of incoming AC line power. It remains in a constant state of readiness, so there is no time delay in compensating for AC line failures.
  • Page 7 The output neutral is internally connected to chassis ground in these units. This option results in a UPS that is slightly larger and slightly less efficient than standard models. YOUR INVESTMENT IN MESTA'S TRULY UNINTERRUPTIBLE POWER SUPPLY INSURES THE VALUABLE POWER PROTECTION YOU NEED.

    Again, in case of any damage, report it directly to the dealer or the carrier. Environment: The MESTA UPS is designed to be used in a temperature controlled, indoor area free of conductive contaminants, having a temperature range of 0–40°C and relative humidity of 0–95%, without condensation.
  • Page 9 Installation Complete: Assuming an overload doesn't occur prior to attaching and turning on all loads, you have completed the installation procedure of your UPS. From here on there is no special powering up or powering down sequence that needs to be followed for either your load equipment or the UPS.
