• Do not work alone under hazardous conditions.
• A licensed electrician is required to install permanently wired equipment. Input voltages can range
up to 480VAC Vac. Ensure that the utility power is disconnected and locked out before performing
any installation or removal procedure.
• Ensure that no liquids or wet clothes come into contact with internal components.
• Hazardous electrically live parts inside this unit are energized from the batteries even when the
AC input power is disconnected.
• The enclosure which contains the DC or AC power system along with customer installed radios
must remain locked at all times, except when authorized service personnel are present.
• Always assume electrical connections or conductors are live. Turn off all circuit breakers and
double-check with a voltmeter before performing installation or maintenance.
• Place a warning label on the utility panel to warn emergency personnel that a reserve battery
source is present which will power the loads in a power outage condition or if the AC disconnect
breaker is turned off.
• At high ambient temperature conditions, the internal temperature can be hot so use caution when
touching the equipment.
1.4 Battery Safety
• Never transport an enclosure with batteries installed. Batteries must ONLY be installed after the
enclosure has been securely set in place at its permanent installation location. Transporting the
unit with batteries installed may cause a short circuit, fire, explosion, and/or damage to the battery
pack, enclosure and installed equipment.
• Servicing and connection of batteries must be performed by, or under the direct supervision of,
personnel knowledgeable of batteries and the required safety precautions.
• Batteries contain or emit chemicals known to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive
harm. Battery post terminals and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds. Wash
your hands after handling batteries.
WARNING: Follow battery manufacturer’s safety recommendations when working around battery
systems. Do not smoke or introduce an open flame when batteries (especially vented batteries) are
charging. When charging, batteries vent hydrogen gas, which can explode.
• Batteries are hazardous to the environment and should be disposed at a recycling facility. Consult
the battery manufacturer for recommended local authorized recyclers.
