NSTALLATION

Optional Liebert external battery cabinets may be connected to the UPS
to provide additional battery run time. External battery cabinets are
designed to be placed all on one side of the UPS or stacked beneath the
UPS. There is no limit to the number of external battery cabinets that can
be used but each cabinet will increase the battery recharge time.

1. Visually inspect the external battery cabinet for freight damage.

Report damage to the carrier and your local dealer or Liebert repre-
sentative.

2. For slide rail installations, first remove the top/side fin. Top/side fin

slides forward and then lift up to remove. Optional rack-mount han-
dles are shipped with the external battery cabinet and may be
installed at this time if desired.

3. Securing hardware and slide rails are sold separately. Please contact

your local dealer or Liebert representative for these additional options
and any assistance needed. Fasten the slides into position with the
screws per the instructions included with the slide rails.

4. Use the enclosed support bases for the

tower option to prevent tip-over. One
additional set of support base exten-
sions ships with each external battery
cabinet.

5. Connect the supplied external battery

cabinet cable to the rear of the external
battery cabinet, then to the rear of the
UPS.

6. Turn the battery breaker on the rear of

the external battery cabinet “ON”.

7. The UPS is now equipped with addi-

tional backup battery runtime. For
approximate battery runtimes refer to
the Battery Run Times charts in this
manual.

!

CAUTION
The external battery cabinet(s) are heavy (see

Specifications section). External battery cabinets can

be used in rack-mount or tower configuration. Take

proper precautions when lifting them.

NOTE
You must use the included Configuration Program to program

the UPS for the number of external battery cabinets connected.
