Precautions
Save these instructions. This document contains important safety instructions that should be followed during
installation, operation, and maintenance of the UPS and batteries.
WARNING:
A risk of personal injury from electric shock and hazardous energy levels exists. The
installation of options and routine maintenance and service of this product must be performed by
individuals who are knowledgeable about the procedures, precautions, and hazards associated
with AC power products.
WARNING: To prevent personal injury from earth conductor leakage current:
• Do not operate the UPS while disconnected from the utility power source.
• Disconnect load devices before disconnecting the UPS from the utility power source.
WARNING: To prevent personal injury, prepare the area and observe all materials handling
procedures when transporting the UPS. When fully assembled, the UPS weighs 23 kg (50.5 lb).
Preparing to install the hardware
Before installing the hardware:
1. Be sure the necessary tools and materials ("Tools required" on page 10) are available.
2. Select an installation site ("Selecting a site" on page 10).
3. Prepare the equipment ("Readying the equipment" on page 11) for installation in the rack.
Tools required
A Philips screwdriver is required.
Selecting a site
WARNING: To prevent fire or electric shock, install the unit in a temperature- and
humidity-controlled indoor environment, free of conductive contaminants.
When selecting a site, consider the following factors:
• Elevated operating ambient temperature—If the equipment is installed in a closed or multi-unit rack
assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment might be greater than room
ambient temperature. Install the equipment in an environment compatible with the operating
temperature ("Environmental specifications" on page 36).
• Reduced air flow—In the rack, the rate of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment must not
be compromised.
