Important Safety Instructions

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This manual contains instructions and warnings that should be followed during the
installation, operation and storage of this product. Failure to heed these warnings
will void the warranty.

UPS Location Warnings

• Install the UPS indoors, away from excess moisture or heat, 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
• The UPS contains its own energy source (battery). The output terminals may be live, even
when the UPS is not connected to an AC supply.
• Connect the UPS directly to a properly grounded AC power outlet. Do not plug the UPS into
itself; this will damage the UPS.
• Do not modify the UPS plug, and do not use an adapter that would eliminate the ground
connection.
• Do not use extension cords to connect the UPS to an AC outlet. The warranty will be void if
anything other than Tripp Lite surge protectors are used to connect the UPS to an outlet.
• If the UPS receives power from a motor-powered AC generator, the generator must provide
clean, filtered, computer-grade output.
• Install in accordance with National Electrical Code standards ANSI/NFPA 70 and Canadian
Electrical Code, Part I, C22.1.
• Short Circuit backup protection and overcurrent protection is provided by the building
installation for permanently connected models.
• To reduce the risk of fire, connect only to a circuit provided branch circuit overcurrent
protection in accordance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 and the Canadian
Electrical Code, Part I, C22.1. Be sure to use maximum 20A overcurrent protection, in
accordance with the plug/equipment rating, for the installation.
• The plug on the power supply cord is intended to serve as the disconnect device. Be sure
that the socket-outlet is installed near the equipment and is made easily accessible.

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 connect surge protectors or extension cords to the output of the UPS. This may
damage the UPS and will void the surge protector and UPS warranties.
