Safety Considerations
The UPS enclosures are designed for industrial or computer room applications,
and contain safety shields behind the doors. However, the UPS is a sophisticated
power system and should be handled with appropriate care, following these
guidelines:
•
Keep surroundings clean and free from excess moisture.
•
Do not operate the UPS close to gas or electric heat sources.
•
The system is not intended for outdoor use.
•
The UPS operating environment should be maintained within the
parameters stated in this manual.
•
Keep the UPS doors closed to ensure proper cooling airflow and to protect
personnel from dangerous voltages inside the unit.
•
The UPS contains its own power source. Lethal voltages are present even
when the UPS is disconnected from utility power.
WARNING:
Only AUTHORIZED SERVICE PERSONNEL should perform service or
maintenance on the UPS or battery.
If service or routine UPS maintenance is required:
•
Ensure all power is disconnected before performing installation or service.
•
Ensure the area around the UPS system is clean and uncluttered.
•
Battery cabinet maintenance or battery replacement should be performed
only by authorized service personnel.
•
Observe all DANGER, CAUTION, and WARNING notices affixed to the
inside and outside of the equipment.
•
Always conform to the more detailed safety precautions described in
“Important Safety Instructions” section of Chapter 15.
