ADIRA T / RT 6-10 kVA | Introduction
15 / 119
1.7 Transport and storage
The UPS may only be transported to the intended location in the
original packaging. The same applies to moves or returns.
The packaging functions as excellent device-specific protection.
Conversely, all devices damaged in transport, prior to the initial
operation, must be inspected by EFFEKTA Regeltechnik GmbH. The
same generally applies to any damages to the device.
If the storage period exceeds 4 months, the battery bank for the
UPS system must be immediately charged. See: Storage of the
UPS.
Due to the possibility of existing energy storage (accumulators)
within a UPS, devices must generally be inspected by EFFEKTA
Regeltechnik GmbH or a qualified service center after damages
incurred during transport. Every transportation damage carries the
high risk that the energy storage units and/or their electrical
connections have been affected. As a result, short circuits and/or
the leaking of electrolytes cannot be ruled out. For this reason, it is
necessary to isolate the unit until an inspection has been
performed.
Furthermore, the device must not be transported or stored upside-
down.

ADIRA T / RT 6-10 kVA | Introduction
16 / 119
1.8 Positioning
Do not install the device in an area in which flammable vapors
occur, such as, for example, fuel depots, engine rooms, etc.
The UPS is designed for operation in ventilated rooms with an
ambient temperature of 0° to 40 °C. At higher ambient
temperatures (greater than 25°C), the life span of the battery will
decrease considerably; as a result, the battery’s warranty will be
terminated.
If the UPS is subjected to high and rapid temperature fluctuations,
the risk of condensation occurs. Before further measures are
taken, an acclimatization period of at least 2 hours must be
observed.
Never place or operate the device in a damp environment. Liquids
must be kept at a distance from the device.
The UPS should not be placed in the vicinity of heat sources.
The device must be positioned horizontally.
For ventilation purposes, maintain a minimum distance of 10 cm
between the back and front of the device and other objects to
prevent an accumulation of air/a blockage of air and, with that, a
temperature increase that is too high. Mind that the air vents
cannot be not obstructed, e.g. by papers that have been sucked in,
fabric or similar objects.
Never operate the UPS in an explosive and/or unventilated setting.

2.5 Connection
The UPS must only be connected to a grounded socket or to the PE
(protective earth conductor) through a terminal connection. Under
no circumstances should the device be operated without a PE
conductor.
The outlet for the house wiring must be easily accessible and be
located near the UPS. In the case of a fixed connection, maintain
the shortest possible cable lengths.
In the case of generator operation, a connection to the UPS with
the correct polarity must be ensured.
Only use network cables inspected by the VDE (German
Electrotechnology Federation) and marked with CE certification
when connecting the UPS to the house outlet. An appropriate cable
must be used for a fixed connection.
Only use a VDE inspected and CE certified power cable when
connecting loads to the UPS. An appropriate cable must be used
for a fixed connection to the loads.
The safeguarding of any load must always be performed
immediately in front of a load and must never be performed
centrally in front of the UPS.
Never operate any household devices or tools such as, e.g. fan

ADIRA T / RT 6-10 kVA | Safety instructions
20 / 119
heaters, vacuum cleaners, electric drills, hairdryers, toasters, etc. by
means of the UPS.
Do not connect any loads to the UPS that could overload the device
(e.g. laser printer).
The total of the earth fault currents of all loads connected to the
UPS must not exceed 3.5 mA.
Keep the connection cables as short as possible and always lay
them properly. Hazards such as tripping, pinching, cutting, etc. of
the cables must be avoided.
Only use VDE inspected and CE certified power cables with the
appropriate wire cross-section when connecting loads to the UPS.
The safeguarding of the loads must always be performed
immediately in front of a load and never centrally in front of the
UPS. Do not connect any loads to the UPS that could overload the
device (observe the high starting currents).
2.6 EPO, Emergency power off of the loads
Should an emergency power-off circuit, “EPO” or “REPO” (REMOTE
EMERGENCY POWER OFF), be installed, this control circuit must
unconditionally be separated from all other electrical circuits by
reinforced insulation.
The purpose of an EPO connection is for emergency power off
and the release of the loads.
