equipment damage, load power derating, power failure, and personal injury may occur.
If the valid mains voltage exceeds 320 VAC, the UPS may be damaged.
A UPS can be used to serve resistive-capacitive loads, resistive loads, and micro-inductive
loads. It is recommended that a UPS not be used for pure capacitive loads, pure inductive
loads, and half-wave rectification loads. A UPS does not apply to regeneration loads.
Any operation on any electrical device in an environment that has inflammable air can cause
extreme danger. Strictly obey the operating environmental requirements specified in related
user manuals when using or storing the device.
