Chapter 2 UPS Installation Plan and Unpacking
Use the following basic sequence of steps to install the UPS:
1. Create an installation plan for the UPS system (Chapter 2).
2. Prepare your site for the UPS system (Chapter 2).
3. Inspect, unpack, and unload the UPS cabinets (Chapters 2 and 3).
4. Wire the system (Chapter 3).
5. Install features, accessories, and/or options, as applicable (Chapters 4 through 6).
6. Complete the installation checklist (Chapter 3).
7. Have authorized service personnel perform preliminary operational checks and
startup.
NOTE Startup and operational checks must be performed by an authorized Eaton Customer Service
Engineer, or the warranty terms specified on page 15-1 become void. This service is offered as part of the
sales contract for the UPS. Contact your Eaton service representative in advance (usually a two-week notice is
required) to reserve a preferred startup date.
2.1 Creating an Installation Plan
Before installing the UPS system, read and understand how this manual applies to the
system being installed. Use the procedures and illustrations in the following chapters
to create a logical plan for installing the system.
2.1.1 Preparing Your Site
For the UPS system to operate at peak efficiency, the installation site should meet
the environmental parameters outlined in this manual. If the UPS is to be operated at
an altitude higher than 1500m (5000 ft), contact your Eaton service representative for
important information about high altitude operation. The operating environment must
meet the weight, clearance, and environmental requirements specified in
paragraph A.1 starting on page A-1.
The UPS cabinets use forced air cooling to regulate internal component temperature.
Air inlets are in the front of the cabinet and outlets are in the top. You must allow
clearance in front of and above each cabinet for proper air circulation (see Table B on
page A-1).
2.1.2 Environment Considerations
The life of the UPS system is adversely affected if the installation does not meet the
following guidelines:
1. The system must be installed on a level, sealed concrete pad or floor.
2. The system must be installed in a temperature-controlled indoor area free of
conductive contaminants.
Failure to follow guidelines may void your warranty.
