SAFETY AND EMC INSTRUCTIONS
Please carefully read the following user manual and the safety instructions before installing the unit or
operating the unit!
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
1-1. TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE
Please transport the UPS system only in the original packaging to protect against shock and impact.
The UPS must be stored in a ventilated and dry location.
1-2. PREPARATION
Condensation may occur if the UPS system is moved from a cold to a warm environment. The
UPS system must be absolutely dry before being installed. Please allow at least two hours for the
UPS system to acclimate the environment.
Do not install the UPS system near water or in moist environments or where it would be
exposed to direct sunlight or a nearby heater.
Do not block the ventilation holes on the UPS.
1-3. INSTALLATION
This UPS series is ONLY intended to be installed in an indoor temperature-controlled
environment that is free of conductive contaminants. This UPS series is not intended for use in a
computer room as defined in the Standard for the Protection of Electronic Computer/Data Processing
Equipment ANSI/NFPA75.
Do not connect appliances or devices which would overload the UPS (e.g. big motor-type equipment) to
the UPS output.
Route cables in such a way that no one can step on or trip over them.
Do not block the air vents on the UPS. The UPS must be installed in a location with good ventilation.
Ensure enough space on each side for ventilation.
UPS has provided an earthed terminal, in the final installed system configuration,
equipotential earth bonding to the external UPS battery cabinets.
The UPS can be installed only by qualified service personnel.
An appropriate disconnect device for short-circuit protection should be provided in the
building wiring installation.
An integral single emergency switching device which prevents further supply to the load by the UPSin
any mode of operation should be provided in the building wiring installation.
Connect to the earth grounding before connecting to the building wiring terminal.
Installation and Wiring must be performed in accordance with the local electrical codes and regulations.

5
1-4. CONNECTION WARNINGS
• In accordance with safety standard EN-IEC 62040-1, installation has to be provided with a
back-feed Protection system, as for example a contractor, which will prevent the appearance of
voltage or dangerous energy in the input mains during a mains fault. There is no standard back-
feed protection inside of the UPS. Please isolate the UPS before working according to below
diagram. The isolation device must be able to carry the UPS input current.
Extern back-feed protection wiring
There can be no derivation in the line that goes from the «Back-feed Protection» to theUPS.
• Warning labels should be placed on all primary power switches installed in places away from
the device to alert the electrical maintenance personnel of the presence of a UPS in the circuit.
The label will bear the following or an equivalent text:
• This UPS should be connected with TN earthing system.
• The mains for this unit must be single-phase rated in accordance with the equipment
nameplate. It also must be suitably grounded.
• The UPS is connected to a DC source (battery). The output terminals may be live when the
UPS is not connected to an AC supply.
Before working on this circuit
-Isolate the Uninterruptible Power System (UPS)
-Then check for Hazardous Voltage between
all terminals including the protective earth.
Risk of Voltage Back-feed
WARNING
HIGH LEAKAGE CURRENT
EARTH CONNECTION ESSENTIAL
BEFORE CONNECTING SUPPLY

6
1-5. OPERATION
Do not disconnect the earth conductor cable on the UPS or the building wiring
terminals since this would cancel the protective earth of the UPS system and of all connected
loads.
The UPS system features its own, internal current source (batteries). The UPS output maybe
electrically live even if the UPS system is not connected to the building wiring.
In order to fully disconnect the UPS system, first press the “STBY” button and then disconnect
the mains.
Ensure that no liquid or other foreign objects can enter into the UPS system.

BATTERY CABINET (OPTIONAL)
The BATTERY CABINET, with the same dimensions and aesthetic appearance of the UPS, is an optional accessory.
The BATTERY CABINET contains batteries which allow the operating time of the uninterruptible power supplies to be increased
during extended blackouts. The number of batteries contained can vary according to the type of UPS for which the BATTERY
CABINET is intended. It is therefore necessary to take great care to ensure that the battery voltage of the BATTERY CABINET
is the same as the voltage permitted by the UPS.
Several BATTERY CABINETS can be connected in series to achieve a longer extended runtime.

INSTALLATION ENVIRONMENT
The UPS and the Battery Cabinet must be installed in ventilated, clean environments which are sheltered from bad weather.
The ambient temperature and relative humidity must not exceed the maximum values shown in the "TECHNICAL DATA” table.
Avoid installation in locations exposed to direct sunlight or hot air.
Select a location, which will provide good air circulation for the UPS at all times. Route power cords so they cannot be walked
on or damaged. This UPS series is not intended for use in a computer room as defined in the Standard for the Protection of
Electronic Computer/Data Processing Equipment ANSI/NFPA 75. Typical battery life is 3 to 5 years. Environmental factors do
affect battery life. High temperatures, poor utility power, and frequent, short duration discharges have a negative impact on
battery life
The recommended operating temperature for the product with the batteries is between 20 and 25°C.
Warning: an ambient temperature increase of 10 degrees will half the batteries expected life.
The UPS of category C2 if installed in a residential environment may cause radio interference, in which case
the user may be required to take additional measures.
Operating Temperature (Maximum): 0 to 40°C (+32 to +104°F)
Operating Elevation: 0 to 1,000 m (0 to +3,280 ft)
Operating and Storage Relative Humidity: 5% to 95%, non-condensing
Storage Temperature: -25 to +45°C (-13 to +113°F)
Storage Elevation: 0 to 15,000 m (0 to +50,000 ft)
PLACEMENT
When installing the equipment, the following points should be considered:
•the wheels are to be used exclusively for fine positioning, and thus for small distances only.
•the plastic parts and the front panel are not to be used for gripping or pushing the UPS.
•enough space should be left in front of the equipment for it to be turned on/off and maintenance operations to be
performed on it 1,5 m (5 fts)
•the rear part of the UPS should be set at least 30 cm from the wall, to enable the air blown by the ventilation fans to
flow away correctly and to allow access to the disconnector switches
•no objects should be left on its top surface
•check that the room containing the batteries is ventilated in compliance with EN 50272-2 paragraph 8.2
