CHAPTER 1: SAFETY AND GENERAL INFORMATION

Save These Instructions

This Safety section contains important instructions that must be followed during installation and maintenance of APC equipment.

Conventions Used in this Manual

The following symbols are used throughout this manual. Carefully read all information boxes and abide by the instructions.

The WARNING sign denotes a serious hazard. It calls attention to a procedure, practice, condition, or the like, which, if not correctly performed or adhered to, could result in injury to personnel.

The CAUTION sign denotes a hazard. It calls attention to an operating procedure, practice, or the like, which, if not correctly performed or adhered to, could result in damage to or destruction of all or part of the product.

The NOTE sign denotes important information. It calls attention to a procedure, practice, condition, or the like, which is essential to highlight.

General Equipment Safety

• Connection to the branch circuit (mains) must be performed by a licensed electrician.

• Installation and removal of the power, battery, intelligence modules, and interface accessories

must be performed by service personnel.

Operation of the equipment can be performed by any individual with no previous technical experience.

Handling Safety

Be careful. Do not lift heavy loads without assistance.

<18 kg (<40 lb)

18 – 32 kg (40 – 70 lb)

This equipment is intended for installation in a temperature-controlled indoor area free of conductive contaminants. Refer to Specifications at the APC web site for the actual temperature range.

32 – 55 kg (70 – 120 lb)

>55 kg (>120 lb)

CHAPTER 1: SAFETY AND GENERAL INFORMATION

Deenergizing Safety

The UPS contains internal batteries and may present a shock hazard even when disconnected from the branch circuit (mains). Before installing or servicing the equipment, ensure that the system enable switch and input circuit breaker are set to stand-by (OFF), that internal battery modules are removed, that external extended run batteries are disconnected and the branch circuit (mains) is disconnected.

Electrical Safety

• The protective earth conductor for the UPS carries the leakage current from the load devices

(computer equipment). Therefore, the size of the conductor must be at least as large as the wire required by IEC 950. An insulated grounding conductor that is identical in size, insulation material, and thickness to the grounded and ungrounded branch-circuit supply conductors, except that it is green with or without a yellow stripe is to be installed as part of the branch circuit that supplies the UPS.

• The grounding conductor described above is to be grounded to earth at the service

equipment, or if supplied by a separately derived system, at the supply transformer or motorgenerator set.

• The attachment-plug receptacles near the unit or subsystem are all to be of a grounding type,

and the grounding conductors serving these receptacles are to be connected to earth ground at the service equipment.

Battery Safety

• Each battery module is a 120 V, 7.2 Ah battery pack. There is a risk of energy hazard. Before

installing or replacing battery nodules, remove jewelry such as wristwatches and rings. High short -circuit current through conductive materials could cause severe burns.

• Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. The batteries may explode.

• Do not open or mutilate batteries. Released electrolyte is harmful to the skin and eyes, and

may be toxic.

Do not install the battery modules in the frame until you are ready to power up the UPS. Failure to do so can result in a deep discharge of the batteries, which may cause permanent damage.

• Batteries are recyclable. Used batteries can be sent to APC for recycling or delivered to a

recycling facility.

• Store the battery module(s) at a cool ambient temperature of < 25 °C.

• Only use APC batteries when adding or replacing battery modules in the UPS.

CHAPTER 1: SAFETY AND GENERAL INFORMATION

Battery Replacements Kits and Battery Recycling

See your dealer or visit the APC web site at http://www.apc.com for information on battery replacement kits and battery recycling. If returning used batteries to APC for recycling, ship used batteries in the battery replacement packing material.

PowerStruXure Type A Systems

If your UPS is installed in a PowerStruXure Type A system, contact your APC representative or visit

http://www.apc.com/support for additional PowerStruXure Type A accessories and product documentation.

Radio Frequency Interference

North America and 208 V Countries

• This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital

device, pursuant to part 15 of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) rules and the Class A limits for radio noise emissions from digital apparatus set out in the Radio Interference Regulations of the Canadian Department of Communications (CDC). These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause interference, in which case the user, at his own expense, will be required to take whatever measures may be required to correct the interference. Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

• Use shielded signal cables with this product to ensure compliance with Class A FCC limits.

Europe and 230 V Countries

This is a Class A product. In a domestic environment, this product may cause radio interference, in which case, the user may be required to take corrective actions.

Japan and 200 V Countries

This is a Class A product based on the standard of the Voluntary Control Council for Interference by Information Technology Equipment (VCCI). If this equipment is used in a domestic environment, radio disturbance may occur, in which case, the user may be required to take corrective actions.

CHAPTER 1: SAFETY AND GENERAL INFORMATION

Life Support Policy

As a general policy, American Power Conversion (APC) does not recommend the use of any of its products in life support applications where failure or malfunction of the APC product can be reasonably expected to cause failure of the life support device or to significantly affect its safety or effectiveness. APC does not recommend the use of any of its products in direct patient care. APC will not knowingly sell its products for use in such applications unless it receives in writing assurances satisfactory to APC that (a) the risks of injury or damage have been minimized, (b) the customer assumes all such risks, and (c) the liability of American Power Conversion is adequately protected under the circumstances.

Examples of devices considered to be life support devices are neonatal oxygen analyzers, nerve stimulators (whether used for anesthesia, pain relief, or other purposes), autotransfusion devices, blood pumps, defibrillators, arrhythmia detectors and alarms, pacemakers, hemodialysis systems, peritoneal dialysis systems, neonatal ventilator incubators, ventilators for both adults and infants, anesthesia ventilators, infusion pumps, and any other device designated as “critical” by the U.S.F.D.A.

Hospital grade wiring devices and reduced leakage currents that meet medical safety standards may be ordered as options on many APC UPS systems. APC does not claim that units with these modifications are certified or listed as such by APC or any other organization, therefore these units do not meet the requirements for use in direct patient care.
