The Symmetra RM is designed for use in a data center or other
office environment. Install it in a protected area that is free of
excessive dust, corrosion, conductive contaminants, and has
adequate air flow. Do not operate the UPS where the
temperature and humidity are outside the specified limits.
Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the warranty.
Installing the Symmetra RM
Installing the Symmetra RM is a five-step process:
1. Position the Symmetra RM where it will be used. (This step includes mounting it in a rack if desired.)
2. Connect the Symmetra RM to its power source.
3. Wire the Emergency Power Off (EPO) switch.
4. Install modules into the Symmetra RM frame.
5. Connect equipment to the Symmetra RM.
This section describes each step in detail.
Position the Symmetra RM
Do not install the battery module(s) in the frame until you are ready to power up the
Symmetra RM. Failure to do so can result in a deep discharge of the batteries, which may
cause permanent damage.
Mounting rails are included with the Symmetra RM. The rails support the unit in the rack and provide adequate
air flow.
The Symmetra RM requires two people to install due to its weight.
