SAFETY STANDARDS
This manual must be kept next to the UPS, so that the operator may consult it at any time for clarication on the
correct use of the UPS. Read the manual carefully before connecting the unit to the mains power supply and to
the devices to be powered. Before switching on the UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply), the operator must be fully
aware of the functions and positions of all the controls and of the technical and functional characteristics of the
system, in order to avoid any risk to persons and to the equipment.
Before starting, the unit must have an equipotential connection as established by the safety standards in force. The •
earth cable of the UPS must be connected to an ecient earth point.
If the unit is not earthed, all devices connected to the UPS will not have an equipotential connection. In this case •
the manufacturer declines all responsibility for damage or accidents caused by non-observance of the aforemen-
tioned standards.
This is a pluggable type A equipment with battery already installed by the supplier, it’s operator installable and •
may be operated by layman.
In case of power failure (UPS in back up mode), do not disconnect the input cable from the mains so as to ensure •
earth connection to the powered loads.
All subsequent maintenance operations must be carried out solely and exclusively by authorized personnel. Inside •
the system high electric voltages are generated which may endanger maintenance personnel who are not suf-
ciently prepared and trained for such tasks.
If at any time a hazard condition is created during use, disconnect the mains power supply (if possible through the •
control panel upstream of the unit) and shutdown the UPS completely following the appropriate procedure.
When assembling and replacing the battery, the UPS should always be switched o and disconnected from the •
mains power supply. Do not dispose of batteries in a re, the battery may explode.
CAUTION.
A battery can present a risk of electric shock and high short circuit current.
The following precaution should be observed when working on batteries: remove watches, rings
or other metal objects and use tools with insulated handles.
The batteries constitute an internal power source for the UPS and mean that the system output may be powered •
even when the UPS is not connected to the mains power supply.
Do not force, break or try to open the batteries. They are sealed and do not require any maintenance. They contain •
substances that are toxic to health and that pollute the atmosphere. Do not switch the UPS on if any leakage of
liquid or white powder residue is noted.
Replace batteries with the same number and type of batteries as originally installed in the equipment.•
Replace the fuses ONLY with other fuses of the same type.•
As the mains cable of the UPS is considered a disconnecting device, the mains socket to which the UPS is con-•
nected and/or the rear of the UPS must be accessible and easy to disconnect.
Avoid contact of the UPS unit with water or liquids in general. Do not introduce foreign bodies. •
If the unit needs to be scrapped, it must be handed over solely and exclusively to specialist disposal companies. •
These companies are obliged to break up and dispose of the various components in accordance with the national
legal provisions in force.
