Safety of persons
 RISK OF VOLTAGE BACKFEED. The system has its own power source (the battery).
Isolate the UPS and check for hazardous voltage upstream and downstream during
lockout-tagout operation. Terminal blocks may be energized even if the system is
disconnected from the AC power source.
 Dangerous voltage levels are present within the system. It should be opened exclusively by
qualified service personnel.
 The system must be properly grounded.
 The battery supplied with the system contains small amounts of toxic materials. To avoid
accidents, the directives listed below must be observed:
- Servicing of batteries should be performed or supervised by personnel knowledgeable
about batteries and the required precautions.
- When replacing batteries, replace with the same type and number of batteries or battery
packs.
- Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. The batteries may explode.
- Batteries constitute a danger (electrical shock, burns). The short-circuit current may be
very high.
 Precautions must be taken for all handling:
- Wear rubber gloves and boots.
- Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries.
- Disconnect charging source prior to connecting or disconnecting battery terminals.
- 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 (applicable to equipment and remote battery supplies not
having a grounded supply circuit).
Product safety
 The UPS connection instructions and operation described in the manual must be followed
in the indicated order.
 CAUTION - To reduce the risk of fire, the unit connects only to a circuit provided with
branch circuit overcurrent protection for :
63A rating, for 6kVA models,
100A rating, for 10kVA models
 The upstream circuit breaker for Normal AC/Bypass AC must be easily accessible. The unit
can be disconnected from AC power source by opening this circuit breaker.
 An additional AC contactor is used for backfeed protection and must comply with IEC/EN
62040-1 (the creep age and clearance distances shall meet the basic insulation
requirements for pollution degree 2).

 Disconnection and overcurrent protection devices shall be provided by others for
permanently connected AC input (Normal AC/Bypass AC) and AC output circuits.
 Check that the indications on the rating plate correspond to your AC powered system and
to the actual electrical consumption of all the equipment to be connected to the system.
 For PLUGGABLE EQUIPMENT, the socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment
and shall be easily accessible
 Never install the system near liquids or in an excessively damp environment.
 Never let a foreign body penetrate inside the system.
 Never block the ventilation grates of the system.
 Never expose the system to direct sunlight or source of heat.
 If the system must be stored prior to installation, storage must be in a dry place.
 The admissible storage temperature range is -25°C to +60°C with battery(-15°C to +40°C
without battery).
Special precautions
 The unit is heavy: wear safety shoes and use vacuum lifter preferentially for handling
operations.
 All handling operations will require at least two people (unpacking, lifting, installation in rack
system).
 Straps are provided only for unpacking manually the unit from the carton; don’t use the
straps to carry the unit around. The unit can slip from the straps during handling (risk of
injury and product damage):
- keep 12in / 30cm minimum distance between the straps
- lift the unit carefully and keep it at low height
- keep the unit horizontal during unpacking.
 Before and after the installation, if the UPS remains de-energized for a long period, the
UPS must be energized for a period of 24 hours, at least once every 6 months (for a normal
storage temperature less than 25°C). This charges the battery, thus avoiding possible
irreversible damage.
 During the replacement of the Battery Module, it is imperative to use the same type and
number of element as the original Battery Module provided with the UPS to maintain an
identical level of performance and safety.

1.2 Electronic equipment protection
The uninterruptible power system (UPS) protects your sensitive electronic
equipment from the most common power problems, including power failures,
power sags, power surges, brownouts, line noise, high voltage spikes, frequency
variations, switching transients, and harmonic distortion.
Power outages may occur unexpected, and the power quality will be erratic.
These power problems have the potential to corrupt critical data, destroy
unsaved work sessions, and damage hardware - causing hours of lost
productivity and expensive repairs.
With the UPS, you can safely eliminate the effects of power disturbances and
guard the integrity of your equipment. Providing outstanding performance and
reliability, UPS’s unique benefits include:
 True online double-conversion technology with high power density, utility
frequency independence, and generator compatibility.
 Selectable High Efficiency mode of operation.
 Standard communication options: one RS232 communication port, one USB
communication port, one dry in port and dry out port.
 Optional connectivity cards with enhanced communication capabilities.
 Firmware that is easily upgradable without a service call.
