Battery Maintenance 5-5
Obtaining New Batteries
Compaq supplies spare battery packs for 1000 Series UPS models. Obtain
spare batteries for the UPS when the Battery Service indicator (LED 10)
illuminates, meaning that new batteries may be required within 30 to 60 days.
The 1000 Series UPS spare battery kit part numbers are:
■ 1000 models - 295460-001
■ 1500 tower models - 340795-001
■ 1500 rack-mountable models - 295463-001
IMPORTANT: Compaq recommends that an inventory of spare batteries not be
maintained onsite unless a procedure to keep these batteries charged while in storage is
implemented.
For information on the Battery Service LED function, see Chapter 3,
“Operation.”
Replacing Batteries
There are two options for replacing UPS batteries:
■ Powering off the UPS before removing the batteries
■ In certain circumstances, hot-swapping the batteries without powering
off the UPS
CAUTION: While hot-swapping batteries, there is no protection in the event of
a utility power failure.
Step 1: Preparing the UPS
To replace batteries with the UPS Off
1.
Shut down all load devices.
2.
Press the STANDBY button to take the UPS out of Operate mode. The
ON LED extinguishes, and power to the load receptacles ceases.
3.
Disconnect the UPS from utility power.
4.
Wait at least 60 seconds, while the UPS internal circuitry discharges.
