4. Storage and unpacking
4.1 Storage of the UPS
If the UPS is to be stored after delivery, the following points must be observed:
– Always leave the UPS and accessories in the original packaging;
– Never store the UPS upside-down;
– recommended storage temperature should be between 10 – 25°C. In
any event, it is not allowed to exceed or fall below the maximum
temperature limits (see here Chapter 13 Technical data);
– The delivered goods must also be protected from moisture. The de-
vice must therefore be stored in a dry area;
– If the storage period exceeds 4 months, the UPS must be connected
to the network for a period of ca. 24 to avoid a total discharge of the
accumulators and, as a result, irreversible damage.
4.2 Unpacking and positioning the UPS
Remove the packaging at the installation site with the utmost care to avoid
causing damage to the UPS and the packaging material. Check the scope of
delivery (see Chapter 14). Check all packaged items to ensure that no device
parts are missing. Generally, inspect the delivered goods after unpacking for
visible damages that may have occurred during transportation.
Two people should usually lift and transport the device. The MTX series is too
heavy for one person on account of the internal battery bank.
Under no conditions should the device be switched on if you have detected
damages or if parts are missing but rather immediately notify the supplier and
dealer.
The shipping materials are recyclable. After unpacking, please save them for
later use or dispose of them appropriately.
