Chapter 9 Service And Maintenance
This section focuses on UPS maintenance, including fan maintenance, battery maintenance, UPS cleaning, UPS
state checks, and UPS function checks.
9.1 Fan Maintenance
The UPS fans are expected to run for 20,000 hours - 40,000 hours in continuous operation. The higher the ambient
temperature, the shorter the fan life.
During the UPS operation, it is important to check the condition of the fans at least once a year by confirming that
they blow air out of the ventilation holes on the rear panel.
9.2 Battery Maintenance
To preserve the battery life, it is necessary to:
Maintain the ambient temperature between 15°C and 25°C
Prevent small current discharge. DO NOT operate the UPS in battery mode for periods in excess of 24 hours.
Charge the battery for at least 12 hours if it hasn't been charged for three months while the ambient temperature
remains within the specified limits, or two months in the event of high ambient temperatures
If any of the batteries are found to be leaking, place them in a suitable container and dispose of them in accordance
with local regulations.
Lead-acid batteries are classified as hazardous waste material. The control of waste battery pollution is a nationally
important issue. Batteries must be stored, transported, used and disposed of in accordance with national and local
legal requirements and all other criteria applicable to the treatment of hazardous waste material and waste battery
pollution prevention.
Never
attempt
to
carry
out

on
the
UPS
while
it
is
on
line.
Ensure
that
the
UPS
has

damaging
the
device,
wait
until
the
fan
is
completely
stationary
before
inserting
fingers
or
any
tools
into it.
1.
Never
invert
the
battery
connections
as
this
could

re
gular
intervals,
and
re
-
tighten
them
if
necessary.
2. Make sure that all the safety devices are present, in good condition and that they function correctly, and make sure that the
battery management parameter settings are correct.
3. Measure and log the ambient temperature in the battery room.
4. Check whether the battery terminals are damaged or hot, and check the condition of the cases and the covers.
