P RESENTATION
The new BATTERY BOX family has been designed with versatility in mind. Thus the BATTERY
BOX can be installed in tower or rack version according to requirements by using the handles kit.

D ESCRIPTION OF OPERATION
The BATTERY BOX contains the batteries which can increase the operating time of uninterruptible
power systems (UPS) in extended black-out conditions.
The number of batteries contained within can vary depending on the type of UPS the BATTERY
BOX is intended for.
The utmost care must therefore be taken to ensure that the battery voltage of the BATTERY
BOX is the same as the voltage allowed by the UPS.
The BATTERY BOX may contain its own battery charger in optimized switching technology for
the charging of its batteries. The use of a battery charger for each BATTERY BOX allows fast
recharge times to be obtained regardless of the number of batteries and without overloading the
battery chargers within the UPS.
Further BATTERY BOXES could also be connected in parallel to form a chain able to obtain any
amount of back-up time when there is no mains power.

T OWER VERSION
This chapter describes the operations required to prepare the BATTERY BOX for use in the
tower version.
WARNING: for your safety and that of your product, follow the information set out below
exactly.
BEFORE CARRYING OUT THE FOLLOWING SEQUENCE OF OPERATIONS, ENSURE
THAT THE BATTERY BOX IS NOT CONNECTED TO THE ELECTRICITY MAINS, TO
THE UPS OR TO ANY OTHER BATTERY BOXES
Once removed from the packaging, the BATTERY BOX is ready for installation in tower
configuration.
All that is needed to complete this configuration is to mount the 3 plastic covers provided in
the upper part of the BATTERY BOX, as described below:
The 3 covers have an interlocking system:
locate the cover mounting holes in the upper part
of the BATTERY BOX and very carefully engage
them by exerting gentle pressure (see figure at
side).

R ACK VERSION
The sequence of operations required to convert the BATTERY BOX into the rack version is
described below.
WARNING: for your safety and that of your product, follow the information set out below
exactly.
BEFORE CARRYING OUT THE FOLLOWING SEQUENCE OF OPERATIONS, ENSURE
THAT THE BATTERY BOX IS NOT CONNECTED TO THE ELECTRICITY MAINS, TO
THE UPS OR TO ANY OTHER BATTERY BOXES
1 - First remove the 4 feet at the base of the
BATTERY BOX. Put the BATTERY
BOX into a horizontal position taking
the utmost care and with a small slotted
screwdriver carefully lift the pin at the
centre of the foot. Once it has been
lifted, remove the foot from the base.
Repeat the same operations for the
remaining feet. The exact sequence to
follow is shown at the side:
2 - Once all the feet have been removed, the mask must then be
rotated. Insert the keys provided in the release slots located at the
sides of the mask and exert enough gentle pressure to release it from the BATTERY
BOX, as shown in the figure at the side.
3 - (only for the version with battery charger): The mask is connected to the BATTERY
BOX by a specific cable. The mask must therefore be removed with the utmost care
and avoiding violent pulls or other sharp movements so as to avoid any damage to the
LED panel and/or to the actual BATTERY BOX. DO NOT UNDER ANY
CIRCUMSTANCES TRY TO SEPARATE THE MASK FROM THE BATTERY
BOX.
4 - Rotate the mask 90° anticlockwise, carefully insert in the housing and exert gentle
pressure near the release slots until a slight click is heard with the mask remaining in
position.

5 - Rotate the BATTERY BOX 90° clockwise taking the utmost care.
6 - At this point, with the BATTERY BOX in a horizontal position,
fasten the handles to the sides with the screws as shown in the
figure at the side.
NOTE: The BATTERY BOX is compatible for mounting in standard rack cabinets of
600mm x 800mm or more (in width). Support brackets (guides with L-shaped
support) must be used in the rack installation due to the weight of the batteries.
Installation in the lower part of the rack cabinet is recommended for the same reason.

I NSTALLATION
The company accepts no responsibility for damage caused by wrong connections or by
operations not described in this manual.
The BATTERY BOX electrical specifications are shown on the data plate at the back of the
device.
I NSTALLATION PROCEDURE
Before connecting the BATTERY BOX to the UPS ensure that the following notes are
complied with:
Install the BATTERY BOX on a flat and stable surface.
Avoid placing it where it will be exposed to direct sunlight or hot air
Keep ambient temperature between 0°C and 40°C
N.B.: the BATTERY BOX can operate with ambient temperature between 0°C and
40°C. The optimal operating temperature of the batteries contained in the BATTERY
BOX is between 20 and 25°C. While the operating life of the batteries is on average 4
years with ambient temperature of 20°C, battery life is halved with the temperature at
30°C.
The ambient relative humidity must not exceed 90%.
Avoid dusty environments.
Take care to position the BATTERY BOX with the front and the back at least 10 cm
from walls and ensure that objects are not placed on the air slots, so as to allow
adequate ventilation.
The cable connecting the BATTERY BOX to the UPS cannot be extended by the user.
The supplier should be contacted if this is required.
C ONNECTING THE BATTERY BOX
Check that the BATTERY BOX battery voltage is the same as the voltage allowed by
the UPS (check the data plate at the back of the BATTERY BOX and the UPS
manual)
Depending on requirements, connect the BATTERY BOX to the UPS or to another
BATTERY BOX by means of the expansion cable provided
Insert the two fuses provided into the fuse-holder disconnecting switches at the back
of the BATTERY BOX. Close the disconnecting switches.
(only for the version with battery charger): connect the power cable to the
BATTERY BOX and o the mains. The LED indicating mains present will light up
immediately. The LED indicating battery charger operating will also light up after a
few seconds’ delay.

M ULTIPLE EXPANSIONS
Several BATTERY BOXES can be connected in a cascade formation (check for any
restrictions in the UPS user manual) for operation with extended back-up time. The
connections should be executed as shown below:
WARNING:
Only one UPS can be connected for each BATTERY BOX or for several cascade-connected
BATTERY BOXES.
N OMINAL BATTERY CAPACITY SETTINGS  SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION
When one or several BATTERY BOXES have been installed, the UPS must be configured to
update the nominal capacity value (total Ah of batteries within the UPS + external batteries).
The configuration can be carried out using the dedicated UPSTools configuration software,
available on the CD-ROM provided with the UPS.
Installation and execution of UPSTools:
Follow the instructions for installation and use set out in the software manual in the
UPSTools folder of the CD-ROM.

T ROUBLESHOOTING
Only for models with battery charger
Irregular functioning of the BATTERY BOX is most often not an indication of a fault but due
simply to trivial problems, minor difficulties or carelessness.
We therefore recommend that you refer to the table below which gives a summary of useful
information to solve the most common problems.
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION
The LEDs on the front
panel do not light up
No mains power
connection cable
Check that the power supply cable is
connected correctly
No mains voltage (black
out)
Check that voltage is present in the plug used
to connect the BATTERY BOX (by trying it
with a table lamp, for example)
Battery charger input
fuse has blown Call SERVICE to replace it
The LINE PRESENT
LED lights up but the
BATTERY CHARGER
OPERATING LED
does not light up or
flickers.
The mains voltage is
low No solution as the unit is operating correctly
Batteries very low
After a long discharge it is necessary to wait a
few minutes before the battery charger starts
operating
There is a short circuit
or overload downstream
of the battery charger.
Possible battery fault. Remove the mains
cable, disconnect the batteries, removing the
fuses at the back, and call SERVICE for a
replacement
