About This Device
These instructions show how to install an extended runtime
module (ERM). The ERM consists of two battery packs in a
3U chassis. The ERM can be connected directly to an R6000
model or to another ERM. Up to two ERM units can be connected.
Depending on the load, one ERM can extend the available UPS
runtime by up to 15 minutes.
Important Safety Information
Before installing this product, read the Important Safety
Information document provided.
WARNING:
• The installation of this product must be performed by
individuals who are knowledgeable about the procedures,
precautions, and hazards associated with AC and DC power
products.
• There are no user-serviceable components inside.
Regulatory Compliance Identification
Numbers
For regulatory compliance certifications and identification
purposes, the units are assigned a series number, also identified on
the Regulatory Compliance label located on the side of the ERM.
For certification information, always refer to the series number
EO3001B.
NOTE: The rating label on the device provides the class (A or B) of the
equipment. Class B devices have a Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) logo or FCC ID on the label. Class A devices do not have an FCC logo
or FCC ID on the label. After you determine the class of the device, refer to
the UPS user guide for complete regulatory compliance notices.
Weight
69 kg
150 lb
WARNING: The ERM weighs 69 kg (150 lb) when fully
assembled. To prevent personal injury or damage to
the equipment:
• Observe local occupational health and safety
requirements and guidelines for manual material
handling.
• Obtain adequate assistance to lift and stabilize the
product during installation or removal. The ERM is
unstable when not fastened to the rails.
Position
WARNING: To prevent personal injury or damage to the
equipment, take the following precautions when installing the
ERM:
• The ERM must be installed at the bottom of the rack, with the
UPS on top of the ERM. If placed in the rack with existing
equipment, the rack must be reconfigured to allow
installation of the UPS and ERM at the bottom of the rack.
• The ERM must be mounted on the fixed rails included in the
ERM kit. Use the rack template tool shipped with the ERM kit
to align the rails.
Checking the Battery
Recharge Date
Before unpacking the ERM, check the battery recharge date
specified on the battery recharge date label that is affixed to the
shipping carton.
IMPORTANT: Do not use the battery if the recharge date has passed. If the
date on the battery recharge date label has passed without the battery being
recharged, contact an HP authorized service representative for directions.
NOTE: The following label is only an example date. The date on your carton
may be different.
