Important Safety Instructions

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This manual contains instructions and warnings that should be followed during the
installation, operation and storage of all Tripp Lite UPS Systems. Failure to heed
these warnings may affect your warranty.
UPS Location Warnings
• Install your UPS indoors, away from excess moisture or heat, conductive
contaminants, dust or direct sunlight.
• For best performance, keep the indoor temperature between between 32º F and
104º F (0º C and 40º C).
• Leave adequate space around all sides of the UPS for proper ventilation.
• Do not mount unit with its front or rear panel facing down (at any angle).
Mounting in this manner will seriously inhibit the unit's internal cooling,
eventually causing product damage not covered under warranty.
UPS Connection Warnings
• Connect your UPS directly to a properly grounded AC power outlet. Do not plug the
UPS into itself; this will damage the UPS.
• Be sure to use the proper overcurrent protection for the installation, in accordance
with the plug/equipment rating.
• Do not modify the UPS's plug, and do not use an adapter that would eliminate the
UPS's ground connection.
• Do not use extension cords to connect the UPS to an AC outlet.
• The electrical outlets supplying power to the equipment should be installed near the
equipment and easily accessible.
• If the UPS receives power from a motor-powered AC generator, the generator must
provide clean, filtered, computer-grade output.
Equipment Connection Warnings
• Use of this equipment in life support applications where failure of this equipment can
reasonably be expected to cause the failure of the life support equipment or to
significantly affect its safety or effectiveness is not recommended. Do not use this
equipment in the presence of a flammable anesthetic mixture with air, oxygen or
nitrous oxide.
• Do not connect surge suppressors or extension cords to the output of your UPS.
This might damage the UPS and will void the surge suppressor and UPS warranties.
Battery Warnings
• Batteries can present a risk of electrical shock and burn from high short-circuit
current. Observe proper precautions. There are no user-serviceable parts inside the
UPS. Do not open the UPS except to perform battery replacement. Do not open
batteries. Do not short or bridge the battery terminals with any object. Unplug and
turn off the UPS before performing battery replacement. Use tools with insulated
handles. Battery replacement should be performed only by authorized service
personnel using the same number and type of batteries (Sealed Lead-Acid). Do not
dispose of the batteries in a fire. The batteries are recyclable. Refer to your local
codes for disposal requirements.
