3. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS This instruction contains important
instructions for the G8000 Series
that should be followed during the installation, operation, and maintenance of the UPS systems.
Please refer to the battery manufacturer’s instructions for details on operating and maintaining the
batteries for each system.
The input and output of the UPS System are NOT equipped with an over-current protection
device, or an output disconnection at the AC output. Therefore, a circuit breaker should be
provided by the user between the UPS output and the critical load input. The minimum device
ratings should be as follows:
Capacity Rated Output Breaker Rating Capacity Rated Output Breaker Rating
100kVA 480V/277Vac 480V-150A
125kVA 380V/220Vac 380V-250A 150kVA 480V/277Vac 480V-225A
180kVA 380V/220Vac 380V-350A 225kVA 480V/277Vac 480V-350A
250kVA 380V/220Vac 380V-500A 300kVA 480V/277Vac 480V-450A
Circuit breakers should be provided by the user between AC input (or Bypass input) and power sources.
The minimum device ratings should be as follows:
Capacity Rated Input Breaker Rating Capacity Rated Input Breaker Rating
100kVA 480V/277Vac 480V-150A
125kVA 380V/220Vac 380V-250A 150kVA 480V/277Vac 480V-225A
180kVA 380V/220Vac 380V-350A 225kVA 480V/277Vac 480V-350A
250kVA 380V/220Vac 380V-500A 300kVA 480V/277Vac 480V-450A
The maximum ambient temperatures in which the UPS should be operated is 40°C (104°F) or 32°C
(90°F) maximum if the battery system is to be subje cted to the same temperature.
The nominal battery voltage for these models is 336Vdc for 125, 180 & 250kVA, and is 360Vdc for 100,
150, 225 & 300kVA. The nominal battery float voltage is 375Vdc for 125, 180 & 250kVA, and is 405Vdc
for 100, 150, 225 & 300kVA.
Only a certified service representative with battery experience should perform service on batteries. Keep
unauthorized people away from batteries.
Please refer to the battery manufacturer’s instruction when battery maintenance and/or replacement are
scheduled.
CAUTION Misuse of this equipment could result in personal injury and/or
equipment damage.

WARNING
Keep the specified clearance around the UPS.
Leaving no space makes it difficult to carry out maintenance,
inspections, causes insufficient ventilation, and cooling leading to
malfunctions.
Keep the UPS room clean.
Use a vacuum cleaner to clean the UPS.
Also, Do NOT use silicon-contained waxes on the floor in the UPS
room and in the related room as this may cause static electricity.
Make sure the air vents on the front and top of the UPS are NOT blocked
Blocking the vents will cause the temperature inside the UPS to
rise and may result in fire or UPS faults.
Do NOT install the UPS close to a water source.
It may cause electrical shock, UPS fault, or other accidents.
Please ask Toshiba or authorized representatives where the UPS and/or
components are to be disposed.
It is illegal to dispose of certain components without conforming to

A wrong connection may cause damage to the UPS, battery, or
charger.
Perform wiring and connections with correct polarity.
The tightening torque of screws must conform to the tightening criteria.
Loose connections may cause fire due to heating.
When making wire connections or handling the wires, observe the following
precautions.
•Do not forcibly bend or pull the wires or damage the insulation.
•Do not place heavy objects on top of the UPS.
Failing to observe this precaution may damage the insulation of
the wires or may cause a fire or an electric shock hazard.
