    Chapter 1 Chloride Introduction Thank you for selecting this uninterruptible power supply (UPS). Chloride’s Active UPS offers the most reliable protection from the harmful effects of electrical line disturbances for your computing and communications equipment. 1.1 Registering your Chloride Active UPS To ensure that your Active model and serial number are registered, complete and mail the enclosed postage- paid warranty card.
  • Page 6 CAUTION: Removing mains power may not remove power from the device (UPS) output. See instructions above to properly remove power from output. • In case of interruption of the mains voltage, the integrated battery maintains the power supply to the connected equipment.
  • Page 7: Chapter 2 Display And Operation Elements (Active)

    Chapter 2 Display and Operation Elements (Active) The Uninterruptible Power System (UPS) is connected between AC power and the load. It protects the load against mains disturbances, especially power failures. Its operation is based on the on-line principle. The connected load is supplied power through the UPS’s inverter.

    3.1 Safety 3.1.1 Intended use This system, called “unit” in the following text, serves as an uninterruptible power supply of connected loads in a 19-inch rack. In certain configurations battery packs are part of the unit. These battery packs may only be connected electrically with the corresponding base unit.
  • Page 12 3.2.2 Mechanical Attachment The units must be attached in the rack on both sides. When using the attached mounting rails, the single unit can easily be inserted into a 2 U mounting space or removed from it. In order to attach the unit in the horizontal position, the front-plate has to be attached to the 19-inch rack at the indicated points on both sides of the unit.
