8.0 MAINTENANCE
The XG Series UPS requires very little maintenance. The batteries are sealed, valve-regulated,
maintenance-free and enclosed in the fire retardant pack. The batteries should be kept
charged to prevent their premature failure. The UPS will continuously charge the batteries
when connected to the utility supply.
UPS AND BATTERY CARE
Keep the area around the UPS clean and dust free. If the area around the UPS becomes very
dusty, clean the area and the UPS with a vacuum cleaner. For full battery life, keep the UPS at
an ambient temperature of 25
o
C (77
o
F).
STORING THE UPS AND BATTERIES
When storing the UPS for any length of time, it is recommended to plug the UPS in for at least
24 hours every four to six months to ensure full recharge of the batteries.
WHEN TO REPLACE BATTERIES
We suggest that you replace the battery pack every three to five years. In order to assure the
performance of the XG Series UPS, you should check the battery every two to three months by
pressing “FUNCTION/TEST” button and conduct a battery test. If the UPS goes back to
NORMAL On-line MODE in less than 10 seconds with a long beep, the batteries may need
replacing. Contact Falcon Electric Service department to order replacement battery packs.
BATTERY PACK REPLACEMENT
With the hot-swappable battery pack feature, the XG Series UPS battery pack is easily
replaced, without having to turning the UPS off or disconnecting the load.
NOTE!
DO NOT DISCONNECT THE BATTERIES WHILE THE UPS IS IN BATTERY MODE.
