1.2.3. Safety instructions
• Check the data of the nameplate are the required by the instal-
lation.
• Never forget that the UPS is a generator of electrical en-
ergy, therefore the user has to take precautions about
against direct and indirect contacts.
Its energy source, a part from the AC mains, lies on the batteries,
usually included in the same case or cabinet that the equipment
electronics. However, some models and/or extended back up
times, batteries can be supplied in a separate case or cabinet.
If the batteries are connected to the equipment and their pro-
tections are switched “On”, whenever they are, it is irrelevant if
the UPS is or not connected to mains, as well as the status of the
mains protection. The outlets or output power blocks will supply
voltage meanwhile the battery set has energy.
• Compliance as regards to “Safety instructions“ is manda-
tory, being the user the legal responsible regarding to its
observance and application. Read them carefully and follow the
stated steps in the established order, keep them for future con-
sults that may arise.
• If the instructions are not in total or partial and in special referred
to the safety, do not carry on with the installation or commis-
sioning tasks, because there could be a risk on your safety or on the
other/s persons, being able to make serious injuries even death, also it

4
can cause damages to the equipment and/or to the loads and installa-
tion.
• The local electrical regulations and the different restric-
tions of the client's site, they can invalidate some recom-
mendations included in the manuals. When discrepancies exist,
the user has to comply the local regulations.
• The equipments provided with power cord with plug and
outlets, can be connected and used by personnel without
any kind of experience.
The equipments with power blocks have to be installed by quali-
fied personnel and can be used by personnel with no specific
training, just with only help of this manual.
A person is defined as qualified, if it has experience of assem-
bling, commissioning and perfect control operating of the equip-
ment, if he has the requirements to do the job and if has read and
understand all the things described in this manual, in particular
the safety indications. Such preparation is considered only valid if
it is certified by our KESS Support-Team.
• Place the equipment the closest to the power supply and loads
to be supplied, leaving an easy access if it were needed an urgent
disconnection.
In the hardwired equipments and due to the impossibility of fast
disconnection, a disconnection device (switch) with easy access
and close to the equipment will be installed.
• Warning labels should be placed on all primary power switches
installed in places away from the equipment to alert the electrical
maintenance personnel of the presence of a UPS in the circuit
The label will bear the following text or an equivalent one:
Before working in this circuit.
• Isolate the Uninterruptible Power System (UPS).
• Check the voltage between all terminals including the
protective earth.
Risk of voltage feedback from UPS.
1.2.3.1. General safety warnings
• All connections and disconnections of the cables from the equip-
ment, including the control ones, will be done with no power
supply and the switches on rest, position «On» or «Off».
• Shutdown the equipment completely by switching «Off» the
button of the control panel first. Next disconnect the cable from
the wall outlet for standard equipments up to 3 kVA or by switching
«Off» the input circuit breaker and disconnect the power supply ca-
bles in models with higher power rate.
The indiscriminate manoeuvring of the switches may in-
volve production losses and/or equipment damages.
Consult the documentation before doing any action
• Pay special attention to the labelling of the equipment
that warns about the «Electrical shock hazard». Inside the
equipment there are dangerous voltages, never open the enclo-
sure, the access has to be done by qualified staff. In case of main-
tenance or fault, contact the KESS Support-Team.
• Cross cable sections used to supply the equipment and loads, will
be according to the nominal current stated in the nameplate label
of the equipment, and respecting the Low Voltage Electrotechnical
Regulations or standards of the country.
Use approved cables only.
• Protection Earth cable of the UPS drives the leakage current of
the load devices. An isolated earth cable has to be installed as
part of the circuit that supplies the equipment. Cross cable section
and its features will be same as the power supply cables and have
to have an protection earth cable.
All outlets of the UPS has an earth bonding, duly connected and
those equipments with power blocks there is an exclusive ter-
minal for the load earth connection. When an outgoing distribu-
tion is done, i.e power strips, it is essential that they have an earth
terminal connected to each one of them.
It is essential that the cables that supplies the loads have the
earth connection cable.
The protection earth must be connected to the frame or
metallic chassis of any electrical equipment (in our case to
the UPS, battery cabinet or case and loads), assuring that it is done
before connecting the input voltage.
Check the quality and availability of the earth, it has to be be-
tween the defined parameters by the local or national regula-
tions.
• In small equipments (the ones connected with the foreseen
power cord with plug), the user has to check the wall outlet cor-
responds with the type of supplied plug, with earth duly installed
and connected to the local protection earth.
• During the normal UPS operation, in equipments up to
3kVA the power cord cable can't be disconnected from
wall outlet, because the protection earth of the own UPS would
be disconnected and also the earth from the loads connected to
the output.
For this reason, the general protection earth cable of the
building or switchgear panel that supplies the UPS will not be
disconnected.
• In small UPS (the ones connected with the foreseen power cord
with plug), check that the sum of the leakage currents of the UPS
and connected load/s do not exceed over 3,5mA.
• The installation will have input protections sized to the currents
of the equipment and stated in the nameplate label (RCD de-
vices type B and circuit breakers with C characteristic or any other
equivalent one).
Overload conditions are considered as a nonpermanent an ex-
ceptional operating mode, so these currents will not be kept in
mind when sizing the protections.
• Do not overload the UPS by connecting loads with inrush con-
sumptions at its output, like laser printers.
• Output protection will be done with a circuit breaker of C charac-
teristic or an equivalent one.
It is recommended to distribute the output power, into four lines
as minimum. Each one of them will have a protection circuit
breaker sized to the quarter of the nominal power. This kind of
outgoing distributions will allow that any fault in any device con-
nected to the equipment, that makes a short-circuit, will affect
to the line with the faulty device only. An uninterruptible power
supply will be guaranteed to the rest of connected loads, due to
the protection tripping of the affected line by the short-circuit
only.
• When replacing a fuse, do it for another of the same type, character-
istics format and size.
• Under any concept the input power cord will be connected to the
output of the equipment, either directly or through other ways.

• Models with separate bypass line, a galvanic isolation
transformer has to be installed in any of the two lines that
supply the UPS (rectifier input or static bypass), to avoid the direct
union of the neutral of both lines through the internal wiring of
the equipment.
This is applicable when the two lines are supplied from different
mains, i.e.:
Two different electrical companies.
An electrical company and genset, ...
• All the equipments have an auxiliary terminal strip to install an
external emergency power off button (EPO).
The type of circuit is selectable through the LCD panel of the
equipment. The contact is preset from factory as normally open,
so the button must be switched to close the circuit and the
voltage to the loads is broken. To establish the power supply to
the loads again, the EPO button must be deactivated.
EPO doesn't affect to the power supply of the equipment, it only
breaks the power supply to the loads as a safety measure.
• When supplying input voltage to a UPS with fitted in or
separate static bypass, although the inverter is still turned
«Off» (deactivated) it doesn't mean that at the output there will
not be voltage.
So, to do it, the input and static bypass switches will have to be
turned «Off».
Put warnings of danger and/or emergency switches if the safety
Standards require it in your particular installation.
• It is possible that the UPS supplies output voltage through
the manual bypass to those equipments that incorporate
it either standard or optional, so it will have to be considered as
regards to safety. If it were necessary to break the output supply of
the equipment in this situation, deactivate the outgoing distribu-
tion protection or in case of lack of it the general protection of the
distribution panel that feeds the UPS.
• All power supply electrical cables have to be fixed to the equip-
ments and loads, interfaces, etc..., to unmovable parts and in the
way to avoid treads, trips on them or fortuitous pulls.
• Phase equipments in the foreseen terminal for that purpose.
• CHASSIS or RACK mounted equipments are destined to be installed
in a predetermined set to be done by professionals.
The installation has to be designed and executed by quali-
fied personnel, who will be the responsible to apply the
safety and EMC regulations and standards that controls the
particular installations where the product is destined.
The equipments assembled in CHASSIS do not have enclo-
sure protection, even the power blocks are unprotected.
Some RACK mounted equipments do not have the power
blocks protected.
• Never manipulate the equipment with wet hands.
1.2.3.2. To keep in mind
• Do not try to dismantle or change any part of the equip-
ment, if this action is not contemplated in this document.
Manipulation inside the UPS due to any modification, reparation
or any other cause, can make an electrical discharge of high
voltage and it is restricted to qualified staff only. Do not open the
equipment.
A part from the implicit stated risks, any action that make the
modification, internal or external of the equipment or just only
the simple intervention inside of itself, which is not stated in this
document, it can expire the warranty.
• If it is observed that the UPS exhausts smoke or toxic gas, shut-
down it immediately and disconnect it from the power supply.
This kind of fault can cause fire or electrical discharge. Contact our
KESS Support-Team.
• In case of an accidental equipment dropping or if the enclosure is
damaged, do not start it up under any concept. This kind of fault
can cause fire or electrical discharge. Contact our KESS Support-
Team.
• Do not cut, manipulate the electrical cables, do not put heavy
objects over them too. Any of these actions could cause a short-
circuit and make a fire or electrical discharge.
Check that the electrical cables of connection, plugs and outlets
are in good conditions.
• When moving an equipment from a cold place to a warm en-
vironment and vice versa, it can cause condensation (small
water drops) in the external and internal surfaces. Before
installing a moved equipment from another place or even
packaged, the equipment will be left for a minimum time
of two hours in the new location before making any action,
with the purpose of adapting it to the new environmental
conditions and avoid the possible condensations.
The UPS has to be completely dry before starting any installation
task.
• Do not store, install or expose the equipment in corrosive, wets,
dusty inflammable or explosive environments and never out-
doors.
• Avoid to locate, install or store the equipment in a place with
direct sunlight or high temperatures. Batteries could be dam-
aged.
In the exceptional case and long exposition to intense heat,
batteries can cause filtrations, overheating or explosions,
which can cause fires, burn or other injuries. High tempera-
tures can also make deformation in the enclosure.
• The location will be spacious, airy, away from heat sources and
easy access.
• Do not obstruct the cooling grids by entering objects through
themselves or other orifices.
• In equipments of low power rate (up to 3kVA), leave as minimum
space of 25 cm in the equipment peripheral and 50 cm for higher
power rates equipments.
• Also in the UPS with power blocks, it is recommended to leave
another additional 50 cm for an eventual intervention of the
KESS Support-Team, considering that if it means to move the
UPS, the connected cables will have the needed clearance.
• Do not put materials over the equipment or parts that obstruct
the correct visualization of the synoptic.
• Be careful to not wet it, because it is not waterproof. Do not allow
entering any kind of liquids in. If accidentally the outside of the
machine comes into contact with liquids or salt air, dry it with a
soft and absorbent cloth.
• To clean the equipment, wipe over a damp cloth and then dry it.
Avoid sprinkling or spillage that could enter through the slots or
cooling grids, which may cause fire or electric shock.
Do not clean the equipments with products that could have al-
cohol, benzene, solvent or other inflammable substances, or they

6
are abrasive, corrosive, liquids or detergent.
• When it is needed to remove the protection cover to access to
the terminals, they will have to be put back before starting up the
equipment. Otherwise you may incur personal injury or equip-
ment damage.
• Be careful to not lift heavy loads without help, according to the
following recommendations:
, < 18 kg.
, 18 - 32 kg.
, 32 - 55 kg.
, > 55 kg.
• UPSs are electronic equipments, so they will be treated as they
are:
Avoid shocks.
Avoid jolting or bouncing of the UPS, like those produced by
moving the equipment on a hand truck and move on an un-
even or wavy surface.
• UPS transport will be done packaged inside its original packaging
in order to prevent it from shock and impact and by means of the
suitable type of packaging (carton box, pallet packaging, ...) and
appropriate to its weight.
• Although the physical location of the elements can differ from
the illustrations in this manual in some cases, the correct labelling
correct the possible doubts and makes easy its comprehension.
1.2.3.3. Safety warning regarding batteries
• The manipulation and connection of the batteries shall
be done and supervised by personnel with battery
knowledge only.
Before doing any action, disconnect the batteries. Check that no
current is present and there is not dangerous voltage in the DC
BUS (capacitors) or in the endpoint of the battery set terminals.
Battery circuit is not isolated from input voltage. Dangerous volt-
ages can be found between the terminals of the battery set and
the earth. Check that there is not any voltage at the input before
take any action over them.
• When faulty batteries are replaced, the complete battery set has
to be replaced, less exceptional cases in new equipments, were
due to manufacturing faults it will only be replaced the defective
ones.
The replacement will be done by another one of the same type,
voltage, capacity, quantity and brand. All of them has to be of the
same brand.
• Generally, the used batteries are sealed lead acid of 12V and
maintenance free (VRLA).
• Do not reuse the faulty batteries. There could be an explosion
or burst any battery with the involved problems and issues that
could happen.
• Generally supplied batteries are installed in the same cabinet,
case or rack of the equipment. Depending on the power, au-
tonomy or both, they can be supplied separately from the equip-
ment in another cabinet, case or rack, with the interlink cables
among them. Do not modify its length.
• In those equipments requested without batteries, their acquisi-
tion, installation and connection of themselves will be done by
the end-user and under his responsibility. Data concerning the
batteries as regards to quantity, capacity and voltage, are stated
in this battery label sticked beside the nameplate of the equip-
ment. Respect these data, battery connection polarity strictly.
For an optimum and efficient operating, the battery set has to be
located as close as possible to the equipment.
• The battery voltage can involve the risk of electric shock
and can produce high short circuit currents. Observe the
following preventive measures before manipulating any terminal
block identified in the labelling as «Batteries»:
Disconnect the corresponding protection elements.
When connecting a battery cabinet to the equipment, re-
spect the cable’s polarity and colour (red-positive; black-
negative) indicated in the manual and in the corresponding
labelling.
Wear rubber gloves and shoes.
Use tools with insulated handles.
Take off watches, rings or other metal objects.
Do not place metal tools or objects over the batteries.
Never manipulate with your hands or through conducting
objects, do not short either the battery terminal block of the
equipment or the own from the batteries.
• When the equipment and/or battery module has a protection
through a fuse and it is needed to be replaced, it will always be
done by another one with the same dimension, type and size.
• For long periods of disconnection, consider that the equipment
has to be connected once a month for 10 hours as minimum, in
order to charge the batteries, so the irreversible degradation of
itself is avoided. On the other hand, in case of storing an equip-
ment, it will be done in a fresh and dry place, never outdoors.
• Never short the battery terminals as it involves a high risk. It involves
the detriment of the equipment and batteries.
• Avoid mechanical efforts and impacts.
• Do not open or mutilate the battery. Spilled electrolyte is harmful
and toxic to the skin and eyes.
• Do not dispose the batteries in a fire and high temperatures. The
batteries may explode.
• In case of contact of the acid with parts of the body, wash imme-
diately with plenty water and call urgently the nearest medical
service.
• Batteries involve a serious risk for the health and for the environ-
ment. Their disposal should be done according to the existing
laws.

3.2. Operating principle
This manual describes the installation and operating of the Uninter-
ruptible Power Supply (UPS) from KESSUPS 91RT series, as equip-
ments that can work as a single units or connected in parallel with a
maximum of two units (equipments higher than 3 kVA only).
UPS from KESSUPS 91RT series assures a maximum protection of any
critical load, keeping the power supply voltage to the loads between
the stated parameters, with no break, when a failure, fluctuation or
deterioration happen in the electrical commercial mains and with
wide range of available models (from 0,7 kVA to 10 kVA) and allow
adapting the model to the end-user needs.
Thanks to the used technology, PWM (pulse width modulation) and
the double conversion, the UPSs from KESSUPS 91RT series are com-
pact, silent and with high efficiency.
The double converter principle cancels any perturbation of the en-
ergy mains fluctuations. A rectifier converts the AC alternating cur-
rent from mains into DC direct current, which keeps both the optimal
battery charge level and supplies the inverter that at the same time
generates a sinewave AC alternating voltage ready to supply the
loads permanently. In case of input mains power supply fault, the
batteries supply clean energy to the inverter.
The design and UPS construction from KESSUPS 91RT series have
been done in accordance with the international standards.
In models up to 3 kVA, there are available IEC outlets associated to
configure groups by means of the control -LS1 and LS2-. At higher
power models available automatic protections per each outlet group
and also they have terminals to make the corresponding power con-
nection.
The complete series has connectors for USB and RS232 ports and
EPO too for an external installation by the end-user of an emergency
button, as an option. In the models from 0,7 to 3 kVA it is supplied a
dry contact to install a remote start up and shutdown of the equip-
ment (Dry-in), as well as an auxiliary contact as an alarm (Dry-out).
As an option, inside the smart slot, one of the following communica-
tion cards can be inserted: AS-400 interface or SNMP for controlling
the equipment via Internet/Intranet.
Models from 4 to 10 kVA, allow the parallel connection of a second
equipment of the same features for a redundant configuration or to
increase the available power. This connection can be done at any time
and it does not condition the acquisition of itself. Likewise, this power
range has manual bypass.
It is possible to increase the standard back up time of the equipment by
connecting additional battery modules.
3.2.1. Main features
• True on-line with double conversion technology and output fre-
quency independent from mains.
• Output power factor 0,9 and pure sinewave, suitable for almost
any kind of loads.
• Input power factor > 0,99 and high general efficiency (between
0,87 and 0,9 for models 0,7 to 3 kVA and > 0,93 for higher power
rates). It is obtained both a higher energy saving and lower cost
of installation to the end-user, as well as low input current distor-
tion, therefore the pollution in the power supply is minimised.
• High adaptability to the worst conditions of the input mains.
Wide input voltage range, frequency range and wave shape, so
it is avoided the excessive dependence of the limited energy of
the battery.
• Availability of the extended back up times, by adding additional
battery modules.
• Possibility to connect two equipments in parallel (models with
power rate higher than 3 kVA only).
• High efficiency mode > 0,95 selectable (ECO-MODE). Energy
saving, which revert to the user in an economic way.
• Possibility to start up the equipment without mains or battery
discharged. Be careful with the last aspect, because the back up
time will be decreased as much they are discharged.
• The technology of smart battery management is very useful to
extend the battery lifetime and to optimise the recharging time.
• Standard communication options through RS-232 or USB ports.
• Remote emergency power off control (EPO).
• Control signal of remote emergency power off (EPO).
• Interface between user and equipment through the control
panel LCD and led indicators.
• Available option connectivity cards to improve the communica-
tion capacity.
• Simplified maintenance, which allows replacing the batteries in a
secure way without shutdown the UPS.
• Installation of the rack or tower equipment, with adaptable
control panel (horizontal or vertical) to the required installation
mode.

3.3. Options
Depending on the selected configuration, the equipment can in-
clude any of the following options:
3.3.1. Isolation transformer
The isolation transformer, provides a galvanic isolation that allows
isolating the output from the input completely.
The installation of an electrostatic shield between the primary and
secondary windings of the transformer provides a high level of at-
tenuation of the electrical noises.
The isolation transformer can be installed at the input or output of
the UPS from KESSUPS 91RT series and it will always be located out
from the equipment enclosure.
3.3.2. External maintenance manual bypass
The purpose of this option is to isolate electrically the equipment
from mains and critical loads, without breaking the power supply to
the loads. Therefore, in this way the maintenance or fixing tasks can
be done in the equipment with no interruption on the power supply
energy to the protected system, at the same time that unnecessary
risks are avoided to the technical staff.
The basic difference between this option and the manual bypass inte-
grated in the own UPS enclosure in models of higher power rate than 3
kVA, consists in a better manoeuvring, because it allows a complete dis-
connection of the UPS from the installation
3.3.3. Integration in IT networks by means of
the SNMP adapter
The big IT systems based on LANs and WANs that integrate servers
with different platforms, they have to include an easy way of control-
ling and management at the manager system disposal. This facility
is got through the SNMP adapter, which is well-known by the main
software and hardware manufacturers.
The available SNMP option for KESSUPS 91RT series is a card to be in-
serted into the slot that the UPS has on its rear side.
The connection of the UPS with the SNMP is internal meanwhile the
connection between the SNMP and the IT network is done through a
RJ45 connector 10 base.
3.3.4. Relays interface card
See section 4.3.10.3.
3.3.5. Parallel cable kit
The parallel cable kit is used to make the parallel communication con-
trol between two equipments of the same power rate that makes a
system.
3.3.6. MODBUS protocol
The big IT systems based on LANs and WANs, many times they re-
quire that the communication with any device to be integrated in the
IT network has to be done by means of an industrial standard pro-
tocol.
One of the most used industrial standard protocols in the market is
the MODBUS protocol. KESSUPS 91RT series is also ready to be in-
tegrated in this type of environments through the external “SNMP
card” device with MODBUS protocol.
3.3.7. Telescopic guide kit for rack cabinet
assembling in
There is available one model of telescopic guide kit for all models,
suitable for 19-inch rack cabinet.
These guides allow installing any unit of the KESSUPS 91RT equip-
ment and their possible battery modules.

4. Installation
• Check the Safety instructions, from section 1.2.3.
• Check that the data in the nameplate are the required by the in-
stallation.
• A wrong connection or manoeuvring, can make faults in the UPS
and/or loads connected to itself. Read carefully the instructions of
this manual and follow the stated steps in the established order.
• The equipments can be installed and used by personnel
with no specific training just with the help of this «Manual»
only, less those ones that are hardwired, which have to be in-
stalled by qualified personnel.
• All connections of the equipment including the control
(interface, remote panel, ...), will be done with the switches
at rest and no voltage present (UPS power supply switch to «Off»).
• Never forget that the UPS is an electrical energy generator,
so the user has to take the needed cautions against direct
and indirect contacts.
• When there is only one equipment, omit all the instructions of
this document and their implicit connections as regards to par-
allel systems.
• Parallel system installation needs a switchgear panel with separate
input, output and static bypass protections, and a manual bypass
too.
• This switchgear panel allows isolating only one equipment from
the system, when facing any malfunctioning and supplying the
loads with the rest of equipments during the preventive main-
tenance or during the reparation of itself, in redundant systems.
Under request a manual bypass panel can be supplied for a single
equipment or a particular system.
• In parallel systems, the length and cross section of the ca-
bles that go from the switchgear panel till each UPS and
vice versa, will be the same for all of them without any exception.
• Battery circuit is not isolated from input voltage. Haz-
ardous voltages can be found out between the battery
terminals and earth. Check that there is not input voltage before
doing any intervention on them.
4.1. To be considered in the installation
• Depending on the power of the equipment, there is a power cord
with plug or it is hardwired for input and IEC outlets or hardwired
for output, as connection parts for power. The rest of connections
are done through the connectors, including the connection of
the equipment with the battery module.
• Terminals for separate bypass line are only available in KESSUPS 91RT-
models higher than 3 kVA .
• Cross cable section of the bypass, input and output lines, will
be calculated from the current stated in the nameplate of each
equipment, and respecting the Local and/or National Low
Voltage Electrotechnical Regulations.
• Protections of the switchgear panel, will have the following fea-
tures:
For input and bypass lines: optionally RCD devices and/or C
characteristic for circuit breakers.
For the output (load feeding), C characteristic for circuit
breaker.
Regarding the size, they will be as minimum to the currents stated
in the nameplate of each UPS.
• In the nameplate of the equipment there are only printed the
nominal currents as it is stated in the safety standard EN-IEC
62040-1. To calculate the input current, the power factor and the
efficiency of the equipment have been considered.
Overload conditions are considered as nonpermanent and ex-
ceptional operating mode.
• If it is added peripherals to the input, output and/or bypass like
transformers or autotransformers to the UPS, the currents stated
in the own nameplates of those elements has to be considered in
order to use the suitable cross sections, by respecting the Local and/
or National Low Voltage Regulation.
• When an equipment incorporates a galvanic isolation
transformer, as standard, as an option or either installed
by yourself, either at the UPS input, bypass line, output or at all of
them, protections against indirect contact has to be fitted in (re-
sidual current device) at the output of each transformer, because
due to its specification of isolation it will prevent the triggering of
the protections fitted in the primary of the transformer in case of
electrical shock in the secondary (output of the isolation trans-
former).
• Remind you that all external isolation transformers already in-
stalled or supplied from factory, has the neutral of the secondary
connected to earth by means of a cable bridge between both
terminals. If it were required an isolated output neutral, remove
this cable bridge, keeping the precautions stated in the respec-
tive local and/or national low voltage regulations.
• According to the most current trends, all the UPSs have batteries
inside the same rack enclosure of the equipment, but in counter-
part the resultant weight in the models from 4 to 10 kVA is notori-
ously high (see the stated weights in the table 13 and/or in the
own packaging of the equipment).
Attending the recommendations stated in section 1.2.3.2. re-
garding to weight handling makes easy the installation of this
power range in a rack cabinet when the handling labours are
done manually, the battery block has to be removed from the
equipment according to the procedure described in section
4.2.4..
• Battery protection is by means of fuse and internal, so it is no ac-
cessible by the end-user.
Battery modules have internal protections by fuse, and they are
not accessible by the end-user too.
4.2. Reception of the equipment
4.2.1. Unpacking, content checking and
inspection
• To unpacking, see section 4.2.3.
• On receiving the device, make sure that it has not suffered any
damage in transport (impact, drop, ...) and its features correspond
with the ones in the order, so it is recommended to unpack the
UPS and make a first visual inspection.
• In case of observing damages, make all pertinent claims to the
transport agency or in their lack to our company.

14
Never start up an equipment when external damages can
be observed.
• Also check that the data in the nameplate sticked in the pack-
aging and in the equipment, correspond to the ones stated in the
order, so it is required to unpack it (see section 4.2.3). Otherwise,
make a nonconformity as soon as possible, by quoting the serial
number of the equipment and references in the delivery note.
• Check the contents of the packaging. Depending, if we are
checking an equipment or battery module, the contents will
vary.
Equipment:
– The own equipment.
– Quick guide in paper.
– 1 power cord for input connection -schuko plug and
IEC connector- (Standard UPS of 3 kVA only).
– 3 cables for output connection with IEC connectors
(equipments up to 3 kVA only).
– 1 communication cable RS232.
– 1 communication cable USB.
– 4 plastic pieces to be joint two by two to fit the UPS in
vertical position (only equipments 4 to 6 kVA).
– 2 metallic pieces and bolts to fit the UPS in vertical posi-
tion (equipments higher than 3 kVA).
– Two metallic pieces with L shape to adapt the equip-
ment to rack format.
Battery module:
– The own equipment.
– 1 connection cable for protection earth, to link the
equipment and module.
– 2 plastic pieces to adapt the supports of vertical installa-
tion of the UPS and batteries (battery modules for equip-
ments up to 3 kVA only).
– 1 metallic piece and bolt to joint the battery module
with the equipment on tower format.
• Once the reception is finished, it is advisable to pack the UPS and
the battery module/s again till its commissioning in order to pro-
tect it against mechanical shocks, dust, dirt, etc...
4.2.2. Storage
• Storage of the equipment will be done in a dry place, safeguard
from rain, protected from dust, water jets or chemical agents. It
is advisable to keep the equipment and the battery pack/s, into
their original packages, which have been designed to assure the
maximum protection during the transport and storage.
• In general the storage lifetime of UPS batteries is limited.
• After this period of time, connect the equipment to mains and
together with battery module/s, if any, start it up according to
the instructions described in this manual and charge them for 2
hours from floating level.
In equipments higher than 3 KVA ready for its parallel connec-
tion, it is not needed to make the connection between the equip-
ments to charge the batteries. It can be treated as separate units
to charge them.
• Finally, shutdown the equipment, disconnect it and fit the UPS
and batteries in their original packaging, noting the new battery
charge date on each respective label.
• Do not store the devices where the ambient temperature ex-
ceeds above 50ºC or below –15ºC, otherwise it may degrade the
electrical characteristics of the batteries. The lifetime of the bat-
teries can get reduced if the temperature is not 20°C.

15
4.2.3. Unpacking
• The packaging of the equipment consists of a cardboard enclo-
sure, expanded polystyrene corner pieces (EPS), polyethylene
foam (EPE), polyethylene sleeve and band, all of them are recy-
clable materials; therefore they should be disposed according
to current regulations. We recommend to keep the packaging
in case its use is necessary in the future.
• Proceed as follows:
Cut the strips of cardboard enclosure.
Remove the accessories (cables, supports, ... )
Remove the equipment or battery module from the pack-
aging, keeping in mind that it is needed the help of a second
person depending on the weight of the model or use the
suitable mechanical mediums.
Remove the protection corners from the packaging and the
plastic bag.
Do not leave the plastic bag at the children hand, due
to the risk that it means.
Check the equipment before proceeding and in case dam-
ages where confirmed, contact with the supplier or in lack of
it with our firm.
4.2.4. Procedure to take out and install the
batteries in equipments of 4 to 10 kVA
• According to the current trends, all the UPSs have batteries inside
the same rack enclosure of the equipment, but on the contrary
the resultant weight from 4 to 10kVA models is very high (see
weights stated in the table 13 and/or in the own packaging of the
own equipment).
Attending the recommendations stated in the section 1.2.3.2.
regarding the weight manipulation and to make easier the instal-
lation of this power range in the rack cabinet when the manipula-
tions are done by hand, the battery block has to be removed from
the equipment.
Proceed as follows to remove the battery block or pack, based on
one pack for 4 to 6 kVA models and two packs for 8 and 10 kVA
models (see figure 4):
Remove the front cover of the equipment according to the
procedure described in section 4.2.5.2., considering that 8
and 10 kVA models there is a second front cover, which has to
be removed too in the same way.
Remove the blocking cover/s from battery pack, removing
the fixing screws first.
Using the handle that each battery pack has, remove the bat-
tery block by pulling from it till removing it completely.
Consider that each battery pack is wired and connected to the
electronic unit by means of a fast connection connector, so
there could be some resistance to its disconnection.
In 8 and 10 kVA models remove the second battery pack.
• Depending on the required assembling type, vertical -tower type
- or to be installed in the rack cabinet, proceed as it is described in
the respective sections.
• Finally, insert the battery pack/s again.
When fitting in the battery block, make sure that it is inserted till
the end. The correct electrical joint between the connector of the
battery pack and the equipment depends on it.
• Put the blocking cover back for the battery pack and its fixing
screws.
If this cover is not properly fixed against the metallic chassis,
check that the battery pack is completely inserted.
• Put the front cover back depending on the equipment, according to
the described procedure in section 4.2.5.2..
