To replace a battery pack:

NOTE: The internal battery pack is hot swappable. However, you must exercise caution because; during this

procedure, the load is unprotected from disturbances and power outages. Do not replace the battery while the UPS is

operating in Battery Mode. This will result in a loss of output power and will drop the connected load.

1. Press the button on the left-front of the UPS front panel, and pull the panel open, then, loosen and remove the

screw from the battery door, see Figure 6.1 below.

2. Lay the cover, battery door, and screw aside for reassembly.

3. Grasp the battery handle, and pull out the battery pack, see Figure 6.1 below.

4. Unpack the replacement battery pack, taking care not to damage the packaging to re-use when disposing of the

old battery.

5. Compare the new and old battery pack to make sure they are the same type and model. If so, proceed with step 6

. If they are different, stop and contact your Vertiv representative, or Technical Support,

http://www.Vertiv.com/emea/support/.

6. Line-up and slowly push-in each replacement battery pack. until 2/3 of the length is in the bay, then lift up and

continue to push smoothly until the battery pack is fully inserted in the bay. The battery is fully inserted if the

battery door fits flush against the UPS.

7. Re-attach the battery door with the screw, and replace the front cover.

8. Activate the new battery packs using the operating/display panel:

NOTE: The display menus and functions are described in Operation and Display Panel on page55.

9. From the main menu, select Settings, then the Monitoring tab and verify that the date and time are correct. If the

date or time need correction, see Setting the Date and Time on page76.

10. Select the Battery tab, use the arrows to select Replace Battery, and press Enter. The replaced battery packs are

activated.
