Service Instructions

If the UPS requires service, do not return it to the distributor. Follow these steps:
1. Servicing of batteries should be performed or supervised by personnel
knowledgeable of batteries and the required precautions. Keep
unauthorized personnel away from batteries.
2. When replacing batteries, replace with the same number of the 1609
battery packs supplied by Rockwell Automation.
WARNING: Do not dispose of battery in a fire. The battery may explode. Do not
open or mutilate the battery or batteries. Released electrolytes are harmful to
the skin and eyes. It may be toxic. A battery can present a risk of electrical shock
and high short circuit current.
3. Review the problems discussed in the Troubleshooting section of this
manual to eliminate common problems.
4. If the problem persists, contact Rockwell Automation Customer Support
at 440-646-5800.
5. Pack the UPS in its original packaging.
– Pack the UPS properly to avoid damage in transit. Never use Styrofoam
beads for packaging.
– Damage sustained in transit is not covered under warranty.
ATTENTION: Always disconnect the battery(s) before shipping, in compliance
with U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) and IATA regulations. The
battery(s) may remain in the UPS.
The following precautions should be observed when working on batteries:
• Remove watches, rings, or other metal objects.
• Use tools with insulated handles.
• Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries.
• Determine if battery is inadvertently grounded. If inadvertently grounded, remove
source from ground. Contact with any part of a grounded battery can result in
electrical shock. The likelihood of such shock can be reduced if such grounds are
removed during installation and maintenance.
