Figures 2 and 3 show the proper assembly of the battery module
and the electronics module. If additional battery modules are
being installed with the standard unit see figure 4.
Note: No more than three modules should be stacked on top of
each other for any configuration.
If two modules are to be stacked on top of each other, they
should be interlocked to reduce the chances of the top module
being knocked over. Modules do not have to be stacked for the
system to operate. The following steps will guide the user
through the process of assembling and connecting the modules.
Step 1: Place the electronics
module on top of the battery
module so that the six round feet
on the bottom of the electronics
module fit into the matching
keyhole slots on the top of the
battery module.
Step 2: Slide the upper unit forward.
This will cause the two units to lock
together. In order to unlock the units,
lift up on the top module, and slide it
back. This will release the interlock
(figure 2).
Step 3: Connect the input power
cord (figure 3) to the AC power
source. If no AC power source is
available go to step 5.
Step 4: Switch the UPS input
breaker to the on position.
Step 5: Plug the battery
cord coming from the battery
pack into the blue battery
plug located on the back of
the electronics module
(figure 3). Attention: If the
battery cord is not plugged
into the battery plug the UPS
will not be able to provide
backup power in the event of
a loss of AC input power.
Adding an Additional Battery Module
Figure 4 shows the standard unit with an additional battery module
added. To install an additional battery module follow these steps:
1) Unplug the battery module
from the electronics module,
unlock and remove the
electronics module.
2) Lock battery modules on
top of each other. Plug the
lower battery module into the
upper battery module.
3) Lock the electronics
module on to the top battery
module. Plug the top battery
module into the electronics
module.
It is not necessary to stack the
modules for the system to
operate. If the modules are not
to be stacked simply plug the
additional battery module into
the existing battery module.
CAUTION Battery modules present a lifting
hazard. The battery module for this unit weighs
approximately 60 lbs. Two person lift is required
to avoid injury.
