Although some RFI filtering is inherent to the UPS there is no guarantee that the UPS will not influence sensitive
devices such as cameras and monitors that are positioned close by.
If interference is expected, the UPS should be moved away from the sensitive equipment.
Positioning of the UPS TLE Series 160 to 500
Fig. 4.4.1-1 TLE Series 160 to 500 - Positioning of the UPS
The rear panel of the UPS may be mounted
flush to a wall or other structure.
Clearance around the front of the unit
should be sufficient to enable free passage
of personnel with the doors
fully open, and
to allow sufficient airflow to the door vents.
Check Section 110-
26(A) of the NEC code
for specific requirements.
To guarantee proper cooling air exhaust, the
mandatory minimum clearance
between
ceiling and top of the UPS is 20” (500 mm).
A single-
phase power outlet (120Vac)
should be provided near the UPS for
connection of power tools, test equipment
or connectivity devices.
This outlet must be grounded.

In case of RPA Parallel System
, try to place the UPS modules in sequence of their numbers
(marked on the packing).
If the units are positioned “side by side”, the side panels must be mounted on all units.
Remove the
side air inlet grids on the intermediate units to run the control bus cable
connections.
4.4.2 Battery location
Battery require a well-ventilated room with controlled temperature to obtain reliable operation.
The Battery can be installed immediately adjacent to the UPS (left or right side) or remotely from the UPS.
If the Battery is installed remotely from the UPS, a wall mounted DC disconnect device must be installed within
line-of-site to both the UPS and the Battery.
The optimal room temperature for Battery location is 68°F (20°C) to 77°F (25°C) and shall never exceed the range -
4°F (-20°C) to 104°F (40°C).
The life of valve-regulated Battery will be reduced by 50% for each additional 18°F (10°C) that the Battery ambient
temperature is above 77°F (25°C).
The Battery system associated with larger UPS is usually either rack mounted or installed in multiple Battery
cabinets.
Installation and assembly must be made according to the local standards and Battery system manufacturer‘s
recommendations.
The Battery circuit breaker or Battery fuse box must be mounted as near as possible to the Battery.
Warning!
Battery installation and connection must be performed by Qualified Personnel only.
Read all safety instructions before proceeding with the installation (see Chapter 1).
Battery discharging and/or charging activities may cause the emission of hydrogen gas; therefore,
the room requires proper ventilation and fresh air.
Comply with the UL1778-
CSAC22.2no170.3 UPS safety standard, ANSI/IEEE P1184 Guide for
Batteries for Uninte
rruptible Power Supply Systems and applicable codes and governmental
regulations.
