11.1.1 Internal Battery Replacement

1. Remove the 3U battery access panel on the front of

the UPS by loosening the two captive screws

located between the bezels (see illustration at

right).

2. Once the captive screws are loosened, tip the panel

forward and lift to remove it from the main

cabinet.

3. Use a Phillips (cross-head) screwdriver to remove

the screw in the battery retaining bracket on each

battery pack (see illustration at right). Remove the

retaining brackets.

4. Disconnect the battery connectors in the front of

each battery pack.

5. Lift the internal connector out of the way and slide

the battery out of the UPS. Support the weight of

the battery to prevent it from falling.

6. Unpack the new battery assembly, taking care not

to destroy the packing. Compare new and old

battery assemblies to make sure they are the

same. If so, proceed with Step 7; otherwise STOP

and contact your local dealer, Liebert

representative or the Liebert Worldwide Support

Group.

7. Line up and slide in the new replacement battery

pack while holding the internal connector out of

the way.

8. Reconnect the electrical connections for each

battery pack.

9. Install the battery retaining brackets using the

Phillips removed earlier.

captive screws.

CAUTION

A battery can present a risk of electrical shock and high short circuit current. Observe the

following precautions before replacing the batteries:
• Remove rings, watches and other metal objects.
• Use a Phillips (cross-head) screwdriver with insulated grips.
• Do not lay tools or other metal objects on top of the batteries.
• If the battery replacement kit is damaged in any way or shows signs of leakage, contact

your local dealer or Liebert representative immediately.

• Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. The batteries may explode.
• Do not open or mutilate batteries. Released electrolyte is harmful to the skin and eyes. It is

toxic.

NOTE
These are hot-swappable replacement

batteries. However, caution should be

exercised because during this procedure the

load is unprotected from disturbances and

power outages.
