3.5 INSTALLATION OF A BATTERY EXTENSION PACK
With a battery extension pack you can increase the battery runtime of the UPS. If you do not install a battery extension pack
please skip this section and proceed with 3.6.
1. Before installation, check whether the nominal voltage of
the battery pack is suitable for the UPS: the voltage
mentioned on the label on the battery drawer of the UPS
and the one on the rear panel of the battery extension pack
(36 Vdc or 72 Vdc) should match.
2. Check if the battery breaker on the rear side of the
battery pack is in the “OFF” position.
3. UPS and battery pack can be mounted together in one
set of mounting supports. (For Rack mount See 3.3.2)
4. At the rear side the UPS and battery pack can be coupled
using the coupling bracket that came with the battery pack.
5. Connect the DC connector of the battery pack to the DC
socket of the UPS (fig. 5a and 5b). You will hear a click
when the cable is properly connected. Block the DC
connector: install the small locking plate that came with
the battery pack, and fasten it with the screw provided.
6. Connect the DC connectors at the front side of the
battery pack similar to UPS (See 3.3.1 step 3).
7. Assemble the front panel: insert the two metal clamps at
the rear of the panel into the holes at the upper side of
the UPS, then click the front panel into position. Fix the
front panel with the screw provided.
8. Ensure that Battery Breaker at the rear side of the Battery
pack is turned to “ON” Position to complete installation.
