Chloride Active and E-Series UPS User Manual 47
Chapter 16 Maintenance (E-Series)
The UPS does not require maintenance by the user. When the battery expires, the UPS or the battery must
be replaced by qualified electrical personnel.
The typical battery’s lifetime is 4 years at an ambient temperature of 25 °C. This may vary greatly depending
upon load conditions, number of outages, and environmental factors.
NOTE: Check periodically (6 to 12 months), to see whether the emergency supply time of the UPS is still
sufficient for its application (See “Ready for Operation Check” on page 41.).
16.1 Storage
For extended storage in moderate climates, the batteries should be charged for 8 hours every three months.
Repeat it every two months in high temperature locations.
1. Install the hard-wire connections according to chapter 13 “E-Series Installation and Commissioning”
on page 33 at an appropriate source. Switch on the input circuit breaker at the rear of the device for hard-
wired connection.
2. Switch off the input circuit breaker of the UPS. Then remove the connections of the UPS in an inverted
sequence to what is described in chapter 13 “E-Series Installation and Commissioning” on page 33.
