2.2.2 Fluoro UPS Option
Illustration 3-1:
The Fluoro UPS batteries require a cooling system to keep ambient temperature
below 25 ºC (77 ºF).
The heat produced by the UPS is transferred to the environment by its ventilation. Cooling air
enters the cabinets through the air inlet (grids) located at the bottom and exhausted through the
outlet on the roof. A suitable ventilation or cooling system must be installed to extract the heat from
the UPS room.
Make sure there is a ventilation air flow, preferably ensured by natural air flow,
otherwise by enforced ventilation, so that hydrogen concentration is below 1%
(according to Standard IEC 62040-1-2).
Do not put anything on the top of the cabinet.
If the UPS is placed on a raised floor, the airflow for UPS cooling should enter from underneath
the UPS, through the appropriate aperture on the raised floor.
If the UPS runs in a dusty environment, we recommend strongly to install filters on the air inlet of
the UPS room. In this case it should be considered that these filters can cause reduced speed at
the air inlet.
The size of the air inlet has therefore to be dimensioned accordingly.
