This manual contains instructions and warnings that should be followed during the
installation, operation and storage of this product. Failure to heed these warnings may
affect the 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 32º F and 104º F
(0º C and 40º C).
• Leave adequate space around all sides of the UPS for proper ventilation.
UPS Connection Warnings
• CAUTION: To reduce the risk of fire, connect only to a circuit provided
with branch circuit overcurrent protection in accordance with the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 and the Canadian Electrical Code, Part I, C22.1.
Short circuit backup protection overcurrent protection is provided by the
building installation. Be sure to use the proper overcurrent protection for the
installation in accordance with the plug/equipment rating.
• Connect your 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'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. Your warranty will be
voided if anything other than Tripp Lite surge suppressors are used to connect your
UPS to an outlet.
• 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.
