CAUTION! Do not open or damage the battery, released electrolyte is harmful to the skin and eyes. CAUTION! A battery can present a risk of electric shock and high short circuit current. The following precaution should be observed when working on batteries: remove watches, rings, or other metal objects, use tools with insulated handles.
Page 13
• 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. These UPS units are extremely heavy.
3. UPS installation precautions If the UPS you purchased is a standard model with internal batteries in it, due to the battery leakage current, the built-in batteries of the standard machine is disconnected from the UPS when it was shipped out of the factory. For built in batteries, you will need to charge the batteries before you activate the system.
Figure 2 Remove fixing screws 3. Push the battery terminal fixing plate upward together with the battery terminal until so it is just buckled with the upper battery terminal. NOTE! After the connection, the external battery terminal of the rear panel will also be charged.
4. Main features 4.1. Summary This series UPS is a kind of 3-phase input/ 3-phase output-out high frequency online UPS. The UPS can solve most of the power supply problems, such as blackout, over-voltage, under-voltage, voltage sudden drop, oscillating of decreasing extent, high voltage pulse, voltage fluctuation, surge, inrush current, harmonic distortion (THD), noise interference, frequency fluctuation, etc.
LCD display With LCD plus LED display, the user can easily understand the UPS status and its operational parameters, such as input/output voltage, frequency & load %, battery % and ambient temperature, etc. Intelligent monitoring function Using the optional SNMP Card (optional for extra charge), you may remotely control and monitor the UPS.
5. Installation NOTE! Observe recommended clearance around the cabinet for operation and ventilation – see Figure 6. 5.1. Installation notes NOTE! Consider for the convenience of operation and maintenance, the space in front and back of the cabinet should be left at least 100cm (39.37”) and 80cm (31.50”) respectively when installing the cabinet.
In case the equipment is not installed immediately it must be stored in a room to protect • it against excessive humidity and or heat sources. CAUTION! An unused battery must be recharged every 6 months. Temporarily connecting the UPS to a suitable AC supply main and activating it for the time required for recharging the batteries.
