Preparation

1. Visually inspect the UPS for freight damage. Report damage to
the carrier and your local dealer or Liebert representative.
CAUTION
!
The UPS is heavy (see 12.0 - Specifications section). Take
proper precautions when lifting or moving it.
2. Decide where to place the GXT 2U. Install the UPS indoors in a
controlled environment, where it cannot be accidentally turned off.
Place it in an area of unrestricted airflow around the unit, away
from water, flammable liquids, gases, corrosives, and conductive
contaminants. Maintain a minimum clearance of 100mm (4 in.) in
the front and rear of the UPS. Maintain an ambient temperature
range of 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F).
NOTE
UPS operation in temperatures above 25°C (77°F) reduces
battery life.
3. The GXT 2U may be installed in either a tower configuration or in
a rack, depending on available space and use considerations.
Determine the type of installation and follow the appropriate
instructions in either 5.2 - Tower UPS Installation or
5.3 - Rack-Mount UPS Conversion and Installation.
