Electromagnetic Compatibility
NOTICE |
---|
Risk of electromagnetic disturbance
This is a product Category C3 according to IEC 62040-2.
This is a product for commercial and industrial applications in the
second environment - installation restrictions or additional measures
may be needed to prevent disturbances. The second environment includes
all commercial, light industry, and industrial locations other than
residential, commercial, and light industrial premises directly connected
without intermediate transformer to a public low-voltage mains supply.
The installation and cabling must follow the electromagnetic compatibility
rules, e.g.:
Failure to follow these instructions can result in equipment damage.

In systems where backfeed protection is not part of the
standard design, an automatic isolation device (backfeed protection
option or other device meeting the requirements of IEC/EN 62040–1 or UL1778 5th Edition – depending on which of the two
standards apply to your local area) must be installed to prevent hazardous
voltage or energy at the input terminals of the isolation device.
The device must open within 15 seconds after the upstream power supply
fails and must be rated according to the specifications.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
|
When the UPS input is connected through external isolators that, when opened, isolate the neutral or when the automatic backfeed isolation is provided external to the equipment or is connected to an IT power distribution system, a label must be fitted at the UPS input terminals, and on all primary power isolators installed remote from the UPS area and on external access points between such isolators and the UPS, by the user, displaying the following text (or equivalent in a language which is acceptable in the country in which the UPS system is installed):
