This manual contains important instructions and warnings that should be followed
during the installation, operation and storage of all Tripp Lite UPS Systems.
UPS Location Warnings
• Install your UPS indoors, away from excess moisture or heat, dust or
direct sunlight.
• For best performance, keep the indoor temperature between 0° C and
40° C (between 32° F and 104° F).
• Leave adequate space around all sides of the UPS for proper ventilation.
UPS Connection Warnings
• If your UPS has a corded input, connect it to a properly grounded AC
power outlet. Do not modify the UPS's plug. Do not use adapters that
eliminate the UPS's connection to ground.
• If your UPS has a hardwired input, ensure that it is properly grounded.
• Do not plug your UPS into itself; this will damage the UPS and void
your warranty.
• If you are connecting your UPS to a motor-powered AC generator,
the generator must provide clean, filtered computer-grade output.
Equipment Connection Warnings
• Do not use Tripp Lite UPS Systems for life support applications in
which a malfunction or failure of a Tripp Lite UPS System could cause
failure or significantly alter the performance of a life-support device.
• Do not connect surge suppressors to the output of your UPS. This
may damage your UPS and will void both the surge suppressor and
UPS warranties.
Battery Warnings
• Your UPS does not require routine maintenance. Do not open your
UPS for any reason. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
• Battery replacement must be performed by qualified service personnel.
Because the batteries present a risk of electrical shock and burn from
high short-circuit current, qualified service personnel should observe
proper precautions: Unplug and turn off the UPS before performing
battery replacement. Use tools with insulated handles and replace the
existing batteries with the same number and type of new batteries
(Sealed Lead-Acid). Do not open the batteries. Do not short or bridge
the battery terminals with any object.
• The UPS batteries are recyclable. Refer to local codes for disposal
requirements, or in the US only call 1-800-SAV-LEAD for disposal
information. Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire.
• When adding external batteries, connect only Tripp Lite battery packs
of the correct voltage and type. Your UPS's External Battery Connector
should match the color of the connector of any battery pack you want
to connect.
