STEP 1 Unpacking and Positioning
This section describes installation of the Galaxy 3000 10-30 kVA UPS, including receiving, handling, and storage
procedures; prerequisites to the installation; installation procedures; and start-up procedures.
Once the Galaxy 3000 UPS System has been inspected and received from the shipping courier, the unit should be
moved with the
use of a fork lift or pallet jack to a position as close to the final installation location
as possible.
Figure QS-1: Pallet Mounting Configuration for the Galaxy 3000.
Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician and should conform to local and national
electrical codes.
Prior to any installation, the following items should be observed upon receipt of the Galaxy 3000 10-30 kVA UPS.
The casters on the unit will allow it to be positioned into the final installation location. At this point, the leveling legs
can be adjusted to provide a level and stable footing for the Galaxy 3000 UPS system. See Figure QS-1.
1) Inspect shipment for any damage prior to receipt. Damage claims should be filed directly with the courier.
Replacements for damaged components should be ordered through MGE Customer Support Services at 1-800-
438-7373.
2) Move equipment as close to the final location as possible using a pallet jack or forklift.
3) Once equipment is close to the installation location, and If configuration is optional pallet mount, remove the
Galaxy 3000 UPS from the shipping pallet using extreme caution when rolling the cabinet off the pallet as its
weight may exceed 500 lbs. See Figure QS-1.
4) All cabinets are equipped with casters allowing the equipment to be placed into final position. Push cabinets
very slowly into position to avoid any tipping hazard.
5) Once in position, adjust the leveling legs to provide a fixed and stable footing for the Galaxy 3000 UPS system.
6) At this point, the UPS system can either be prepared for operation, or for storage until such time as it may be
required for service.
