IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This manual contains important safety instructions that should be followed during the installation
and maintenance of the Liebert PEX. Read this manual thoroughly before attempting to install or
operate this unit.
Only qualified personnel should move, install or service this equipment.
Adhere to all warnings, cautions and installation, operating and safety instructions on the unit and in
this manual. Follow all operating and user instructions.
!
WARNING
Risk of electric shock. Can cause injury or death.
Disconnect local and remote power supplies before working within.
Before proceeding with installation, read all instructions, verify that all the parts are included
and check the nameplate to be sure the voltage matches available utility power.
The iCOM microprocessor does not isolate power from the unit, even in the “unit off” mode.
Some internal components require and receive power even during the “unit off” mode of iCOM
control.
The PEX unit isolation switch is inside the unit. The line side of this switch contains live high
voltage.
The only way to ensure that there is NO voltage inside the unit is to install and open a remote
isolation switch. Refer to unit electrical schematic.
Follow all local codes.
!
WARNING
Risk of explosive discharge from high-pressure refrigerant. Can cause injury or death.
This unit contains fluids and gases under high pressure. Relieve pressure before working with
piping.
!
WARNING
Risk of refrigerant system rupture or explosion from overpressurization. Can cause
equipment damage, injury or death.
NOTE
The Liebert PEX indoor cooling unit has a factory-installed high pressure safety switch in the
high side refrigerant circuit.
!
WARNING
Risk of high-speed moving parts. Can cause injury or death.
Disconnect all local and remote electric power supplies before working in the unit.
!
CAUTION
Risk of contact with hot surfaces. Can cause injury.
The compressors, refrigerant discharge lines, humidifiers and reheats are extremely hot
during unit operation. Allow sufficient time for them to cool before working within the unit
cabinet. Use extreme caution and wear protective gloves and arm protection when working on
or near hot compressors, discharge lines, humidifiers and reheats.

!
CAUTION
Risk of leaking water. Can cause equipment and building damage.
This unit requires a water drain connection. It also requires an external water supply to
operate.
Improper installation, application and service practice can result in water leakage from the
unit. Water leakage can result in severe property damage and loss of critical data center
equipment.
Do not locate unit directly above any equipment that could sustain water damage.
Emerson recommends installing leak detection equipment for unit and supply lines.
