2. Installation
2.1 Location
As each site/country has its own requirements, the installation instructions in this section are as a
guide for the general procedures and practices that should be observed by the installing engineer.
2.1.1 Installation Environment
The UPS is intended for indoor installation and uses forced convection cooling by internal fans.
Please make sure there is enough space for the UPS ventilation and cooling.
Keep the UPS far away from water, heat and inflammable and explosive corrosive material. Avoid
installing the UPS in the environment with direct sunlight, dust, volatile gases, corrosive material
and high salinity.
Avoid installing the UPS in the environment with conductive dirt.
The best operating environment temperature for batteries is 20-25℃. Operating above 25℃ will
reduce the battery life, and operation below 20℃ will reduce the battery capacity.
The battery will generate a little amount of hydrogen and oxygen during charging; ensure the fresh
air volume of the battery installation environment must meet EN50272-2001 and EN-IEC62485-2
requirements.
When external batteries are used, the battery circuit breakers (or fuses) must be mounted as close
as possible to the batteries, and the connecting cables should be as short as possible.
2.1.2 Site Selection
Ensure the ground or installation platform can bear the weight of the UPS cabinet, batteries and
battery racks.
No vibration and less than 5 degree inclination horizontally.
The equipment should be stored in a room so as to protect it against excessive humidity and heat
sources.
The battery needs to be stored in dry and cool place with good ventilation. The most suitable
storage temperature is 5℃ to 25℃.
2.1.3 Size and Weight
Ensure there is enough space for the placement of the UPS. The room reserved for the UPS cabinet
is shown in Figure 2-1.
Attention
Ensure there is at least 0,8m on front of the cabinet so as to easily maintain the power part and at
least 0,5m behind for ventilation and cooling. The room reserved for the cabinet is shown in
Figure2-1.
