CAUTION: Safety of persons
◗ The system has its own power source (the battery). Consequently, the power outlets may be energized even if the
systems is disconnected from the AC power source.
◗ Dangerous voltage levels are present within the system. It should be opened exclusively by qualified service personnel.
◗ The system must be properly grounded.
◗ The battery supplied with the system contains small amounts of toxic materials. To avoid accidents, the directives listed
below must be observed:
-Never burn the battery (risk of explosion).
-Do not attempt to open the battery (the electrolyte is dangerous for the eyes and skin).
-Comply with all applicable regulations for the disposal of the battery.
-Batteries constitute a danger (electrical shock, burns). The short-circuit current may be very high. Precautions must be
taken for all handling: remove watches, rings, bracelets and any other metal objects, use tools with insulated handles.
-Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries.
CAUTION: Product Safety
◗ The UPS connection instructions and operation described in the manual must be followed in the indicated order.
◗ A protection circuit breaker must be installed upstream and be easily accessible. The system can be disconnected from the
AC power source by opening this circuit breaker.
◗ Check that the indications on the rating plate correspond to your AC powered system and to the actual electrical
consumption of all the equipment to be connected to the system.
◗ Never install the system near liquids or in an excessively damp environment.
◗ Never let a foreign body penetrate inside the system.
◗ Never block the ventilation grates of the system.
◗ Never expose the system to direct sunlight or source of heat.
◗ If the system must be stored prior to installation, storage must be in a dry place.
◗ The admissible storage temperature range is -25ºC to +55ºC.
Special Precautions
◗ All handling operations will require at least two people (unpacking, installation in rack system).
◗ Before and after the installation, if the UPS remains de-energized for a long period, the UPS must be energized for a
period of 24 hours, at least once every 6 months (for a normal storage temperature less than 25°C). This charges the
battery, thus avoiding possible irreversible damage.
◗ During the replacement of the Battery Module, it is imperative to use the same type and number of element as the original
Battery Module provided with the UPS to maintain an identical level of performance and safety. In case of doubt, don’t hesitate
to contact your MGE representative.
