Chapter 1 Introduction
The Powerware®5125 uninterruptible power system (UPS) protects
your sensitive electronic equipment from basic power problems such as
power failures, power sags, power surges, brownouts, and line noise.
Power outages can occur when you least expect it and power
quality can 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 Powerware 5125, you can safely eliminate the effects of power
disturbances and guard the integrity of your equipment. The Powerware
5125 was designed for critical applications such as PCs, servers,
workstations, and telecommunications equipment. Figure 1 shows the
Powerware 5125 UPS with an optional Extended Battery Module (EBM).
Figure 1. The Powerware 5125 UPS with Optional EBM
Providing outstanding performance and reliability, the Powerware 5125’s
unique benefits include the following:
SBuck and Double Boost regulation that ensures consistent voltage to
your load by correcting voltage fluctuations without using battery
power.
S2U rack height that conserves valuable rack space.
STwo-in-one form factor for using the UPS in a rack-mount
configuration or as a standalone cabinet.
SABM®technology that uses advanced battery management to
increase battery service life, optimize recharge time, and provide a
warning before the end of useful battery life.

Chapter 2 Safety Warnings
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This manual contains important instructions that you should follow during installation and
maintenance of the UPS and batteries. Please read all instructions before operating the
equipment and save this manual for future reference.
DANGER
This UPS contains LETHAL VOLTAGES. All repairs and service should be performed by
AUTHORIZED SERVICE PERSONNEL ONLY. There are NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS
inside the UPS.
WARNING
SThis UPS contains its own energy source (batteries). The output receptacles may carry
live voltage even when the UPS is not connected to an AC supply.
SFor 230V models, the output receptacles may remain electrically live. If the input power
source in your application is wired line-to-neutral (as in most European applications), the
voltage to the output receptacles is 0V. With line-to-line input wiring, the voltage to the
output receptacles is 115V (measured from line-to-ground or line-to-neutral, depending
on the UPS wiring).
SDo not remove or unplug the input cord when the UPS is turned on. This removes the
safety ground from the UPS and the equipment connected to the UPS.
STo reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, install this UPS in a temperature and humidity
controlled, indoor environment, free of conductive contaminants. Ambient temperature
must not exceed 40°C (104°F). Do not operate near water or excessive humidity (95%
maximum).
STo comply with international standards and wiring regulations, the total equipment
connected to the output of this UPS must not have an earth leakage current greater than
1.5 milliamperes.

Denne UPS indeholder LIVSFARLIG HØJSPÆNDING. Alle reparationer og vedligeholdelse bør
kun udføres af en AUTORISERET SERVICETEKNIKER. Ingen af UPS’ens indvendige dele kan
repareres af brugeren.
ADVARSEL!
SDenne UPS indeholder egen energiforsyning (batterier). Udgangsnetstikkene kan lede
strøm, selv når UPS’en ikke er tilsat en AC-energikilde.
SNetledningen må ikke fjernes og stikket må ikke trækkes ud, mens UPS’en er tændt.
Dette fjerner sikkerhedsjorden fra UPS’en og fra det udstyr, der er sat til.
SInstallér denne UPS i et temperatur- og fugtighedskontrolleret indendørsmiljø, frit for
ledende forureningsstoffer for at formindske risikoen for brand og elektrisk stød.
Rumtemperaturen må ikke overstige 40°C. UPS’en bør ikke betjenes nær vand eller høj
fugtighed (maksimalt 95%).
SI overensstemmelse med internationale normer og bestemmelser for el-installation må
det udstyr, der er forbundet til udgangen af denne UPS, tilsammen ikke overskride en
jordafdelingsspænding på mere end 1,5 milliampere.
