1: SAFETY INFORMATION
American Power Conversion Corporation (APC) is the leading national and international manufacturer of state-of-the-art uninterruptible power supplies, redundant switches, power management software, and related equipment. APC products protect hardware, software, and data from the threat of
power disturbances in business and government offices throughout the world.
The APC Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) is designed to prevent blackouts, brownouts, sags,
and surges from reaching your computer and other valuable electronic equipment. The UPS filters
out small utility line fluctuations and isolates your equipment from large disturbances by internally
disconnecting from the utility line. The UPS provides continuous power from its internal battery until
the utility line returns to safe levels.
Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the warranty.
HANDLING SAFETY
Be careful. Do not lift heavy loads without assistance.
<18 kg (<40 lb)
18–32 kg (40–70 lb)
32–55 kg (70–120 lb)
>55 kg (>120 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.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
• To reduce the risk of fire, connect only to a circuit provided with a 30 Amp maximum branch
circuit overcurrent protection in accordance with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA or
country specific electrical code.
• Do not work alone under hazardous conditions.
• Check that the power cord(s), plug(s), and sockets are in good condition.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock when grounding, disconnect the equipment from the AC
power outlet before installing or connecting to other equipment. Reconnect the power cord only
after all connections are made.
• Use one hand, whenever possible, to connect or disconnect signal cables to avoid a possible
shock from touching two surfaces with different electrical grounds.
• Connect the equipment to a three wire AC outlet (two poles plus ground). The receptacle must
be connected to appropriate branch circuit/mains protection (fuse or circuit breaker). Connection
to any other type of receptacle may result in a shock hazard.

• In order to maintain compliance with the EMC directive, output cords attached to the UPS
should not exceed 10 meters in length.
DEENERGIZING SAFETY
• If the equipment has an internal energy source (battery), the output may be energized when the
unit is not connected to an AC power outlet.
• To deenergize pluggable equipment: first press the OFF button for more than one second to
switch the equipment off. Disconnect the equipment from the AC power outlet. Unplug the battery connector. Push the ON button to deenergize the capacitors.
• Pluggable equipment includes a protective earth conductor that carries the leakage current from
the load devices (computer equipment). Total leakage current must not exceed 3.5 mA.
• 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.
BATTERY SAFETY
• This equipment contains potentially hazardous voltages. Do not attempt to disassemble the unit.
The only exception is for equipment containing batteries. Battery replacement using the procedures below is permissible. Except for the battery, the unit contains no user serviceable parts.
Repairs are to be performed only by factory trained service personnel.
• Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. The batteries may explode.
• Do not open or mutilate batteries. They contain an electrolyte that is toxic and harmful to the
skin and eyes.
• Do not connect the terminals of a battery or battery pack with a wire or other electrically con-
ductive objects.
• To avoid personal injury due to energy hazard, remove wristwatches and jewelry such as rings
when replacing the batteries. Use tools with insulated handles.
• Replace batteries with the same number and type of batteries or battery packs as originally in-
stalled in the equipment.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT AND RECYCLING
See your dealer or visit the APC web site, www.apc.com/support for information on replacement
battery kits and battery recycling.
Be sure to return the spent battery to APC for recycling. Ship it to APC in the
replacement battery packing material.

UNPACKING
Inspect the UPS upon receipt. APC designed robust packaging for your product. However, accidents
and damage may occur during shipment. Notify the carrier and dealer if there is damage.
The packaging is recyclable; save it for reuse or dispose of it properly.
Check the package contents. The shipping package contains the UPS (with batteries disconnected);
its front bezel (packaged separately); feet (required in tower configuration); and a literature kit containing a software CD, one serial cable, power cord(s), screws for the feet, and product documentation.
The UPS is shipped with the battery disconnected and the front bezel removed. You
will connect the battery and install the plastic bezel (described later) during the installa-
POSITIONING THE UPS
Place the UPS where it will be used. The UPS is heavy. It requires two people for installation due to
its weight. To lighten the UPS, you may remove the battery while you position the UPS. See Re-
moving the Battery Pack, below, for instructions. Select a location sturdy enough to handle the
weight.
tion procedure.
You must install the UPS in a protected area that is free of excessive dust and has adequate airflow.
Ensure the air vents on the front and rear of the UPS are not blocked. Allow at least one inch of space
on each side.
Do not operate the UPS where the temperature and humidity are outside the specified limits. Refer to
the Specifications at the APC web site (www.apc.com).

INSTALLATION
1. ATTACH THE SUPPORT FEET
If the UPS is to be operated in Tower Configuration the support feet must be attached
for proper stability.
2.
REMOVE THE BATTERY DOOR
1. Locate the two feet and the plastic bag contain-
ing the four screws packed with the UPS.
2. Gently lay the UPS on its side as shown.
3. Use the screws to attach the support feet se-
curely to the bottom of the UPS in the holes provided.
4. Carefully stand the unit upright upon the support
feet.
1. Facing the front of the UPS, locate the battery
compartment. The battery connector is hanging
from cables that lead through a hole in the battery door and into the battery compartment.
2. Use a screwdriver to remove the two battery
door screws located at the left side corners of the
battery door. Set the screws aside in a safe place.
You will replace them later.
3. Remove the battery door by sliding it along the
cables and past the connector (the connector will
fit through the hole in the battery door). Set the
battery door aside.

1. To connect the battery, push the battery connec-
tor into the receptacle in the battery compartment. Press firmly to ensure a tight connection.
You will hear a “snap” when the connector is
seated properly.
2. Push the battery cables and white cord into the
space with the battery connector.
1. Replace the battery door and screw the two bat-
tery door screws back into the corners of the battery door. The battery door will cover the battery cables and white cord.
2. The UPS is shipped with the front bezel re-
moved and packed separately within the main
box. Unpack the bezel and hold it with the cutout section on top. Slide the tab on the bottom of
the bezel into the slot on the bottom of the UPS.
Gently snap the top of the bezel into place. The
bezel can be removed by carefully unsnapping
the top, and then sliding the bezel up and out of
the tab on the bottom of the UPS.

CONNECT THE EQUIPMENT TO THE UPS AND CONNECT THE UPS TO THE AC POWER
S
UPPLY
1. On the back panel, plug the female end of the power cord into the receptacle. Then plug the
male end into a two-pole, three-wire, grounding receptacle. Avoid using extension cords and
adapter plugs.
2. Connect the equipment to the UPS using the power cords provided with the equipment.
3. Turn on all connected equipment. To use the UPS as a master ON/OFF switch, be sure all con-
nected equipment is switched on. The equipment will not be powered until the UPS is turned on.
