Page 3 Safety Instructions Read these instructions carefully and be familiar with the equipment before trying to install, operate, move, maintain or repair it. Owing to the possibility of potential hazards, always use extreme caution when working with batteries. The following safety information should be observed before any works are performed on the system.
Page 4 • Inspect whether there is any mistakenly connected polarity between batteries before powering on the system. • To avoid short circuits or suffering from electrical shock, do not touch or replace any cables connected to the battery before having disconnected the system from the batteries.
Page 5 Introduction Overview The CyberPower Battery Management System (BMS) provides a proactive approach to manage and monitor a battery system attached to a network, eliminating the risk of downtime by ensuring the batteries are optimally charged and ready for use (e.g. UPS system).
