HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION, OR ARC FLASH
The UPS system must be installed according to local and national regulations. Install the UPS system according to:
  • IEC 60364 (including 60364–4–41- protection against electric shock, 60364–4–42 - protection against thermal effect, and 60364–4–43 - protection against overcurrent), or
  • NEC NFPA 70, or
  • Canadian Electrical Code (C22.1, Part 1)
depending on which one of the standards apply in your local area.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
DANGER
hazard of electric shock, explosion, or arc flash
  • Install the product in a temperature controlled indoor environment free of conductive contaminants and humidity.
  • Install the product on a non-flammable, level and solid surface (e.g. concrete) that can support the weight of the system.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
DANGER
hazard of electric shock, explosion, or arc flash
The product is not designed for and must therefore not be installed in the following unusual operating environments:
  • Damaging fumes
  • Explosive mixtures of dust or gases, corrosive gases, or conductive or radiant heat from other sources
  • Moisture, abrasive dust, steam or in an excessively damp environment
  • Fungus, insects, vermin
  • Salt-laden air or contaminated cooling refrigerant
  • Pollution degree higher than 2 according to IEC 60664-1
  • Exposure to abnormal vibrations, shocks, and tilting
  • Exposure to direct sunlight, heat sources, or strong electromagnetic fields
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
DANGER
Hazard of electric shock, explosion, or arc flash
Do not drill or cut holes for cables or conduits with the gland plates installed and do not drill or cut holes in close proximity to the UPS system.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
HAZARD OF ARC FLASH
Do not make mechanical changes to the product (including removal of cabinet parts or drilling/cutting of holes) that are not described in the installation manual.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.
NOTICE
risk of overheating
Respect the space requirements around the product and do not cover the ventilation openings when the product is in operation.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in equipment damage.

Additional Safety Precautions After Installation

DANGER
hazard of electric shock, explosion, or arc flash
Do not install the UPS system until all construction work has been completed and the installation room has been cleaned. If additional construction work is needed in the installation room after this product has been installed, turn off the product and cover the product with the protective packaging bag the product was delivered in.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.

Electrical Safety

This manual contains important safety instructions that should be followed during the installation and maintenance of the UPS system.

DANGER
hazard of electric shock, explosion, or arc flash
  • Electrical equipment must be installed, operated, serviced, and maintained only by qualified personnel.
  • Apply appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and follow safe electrical work practices.
  • Disconnection devices for AC and DC must be provided by others, be readily accessible, and the function of the disconnect device marked for its function.
  • Turn off all power supplying the UPS system before working on or inside the equipment.
  • Before working on the UPS system, check for hazardous voltage between all terminals including the protective earth.
  • The UPS contains an internal energy source. Hazardous voltage can be present even when disconnected from the mains supply. Before installing or servicing the UPS system, ensure that the units are OFF and that mains and batteries are disconnected. Wait five minutes before opening the UPS to allow the capacitors to discharge.
  • The UPS must be properly earthed/grounded and due to a high leakage current, the earthing/grounding conductor must be connected first.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.

The label below must be added if:

  1. The UPS input is connected through external isolators that, when opened, isolate the neutral, OR

  2. The UPS input is connected via an IT power system.

The label must be placed adjacent to all upstream power disconnection devices that isolate the neutral.
DANGER
Hazard of electric shock, explosion, or arc flash
Risk of voltage backfeed. Before working on this circuit: Isolate the UPS and check for hazardous voltage between all terminals including the protective earth.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
