IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. This manual contains important instructions
that should be followed during installation and maintenance of the UPS and batteries.

The 5PX models that are covered in this manual are intended for installation in an environment
within 0 to 40°C, free of conductive contaminant.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. 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 harmful interference in which case the user will
be required to correct the interference at his own expense.

Certication Standards

UPS directives: UL 1778 4 p
Performance: IEC 62040-3: 2001. p
Radiated emission: FCC CFR 47 part 15 subpart B, Class A. p
Surges withstand ability: IEEE ANSI C62.41 Category A2 (UL Listed). p

th

edition (UL listed).

Special Symbols

The following are examples of symbols used on the UPS or accessories to alert you to important
information:

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK - Observe the warning associated with the risk of electric shock symbol.

Important instructions that must always be followed.

Do not discard the UPS or the UPS batteries in the trash.
This product contains sealed lead acid batteries and must be disposed as it's explain in this manual.
For more information, contact your local recycling/reuse or hazardous waste center.

This symbol indicates that you should not discard waste electrical or electronic equipment (WEEE)
in the trash. For proper disposal, contact your local recycling/reuse or hazardous waste center.

Information, advice, help.

614-03797-00_EN

Safety of Persons

The system has its own power source (the battery). Consequently, the power outlets may be energized p
even if the systems is disconnected from the AC power source.

Dangerous voltage levels are present within the system. It should be opened exclusively by qualied p
service personnel.

The system must be properly grounded. p
The battery supplied with the system contains small amounts of toxic materials. p

To avoid accidents, the directives listed below must be observed:

- never burn the battery (risk of explosion),

- do not attempt to open the battery (the electrolyte is dangerous for the eyes and skin),

- comply with all applicable regulations for the disposal of the battery,

- batteries constitute a danger (electrical shock, burns). The short-circuit current may be very high.

Precautions must be taken for all handling:

remove watches, rings, bracelets and any other metal objects, use tools with insulated handles, p
do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries. p

Product Safety

The UPS connection instructions and operation described in the manual must be followed in p
the indicated order.

A protection circuit breaker must be installed upstream and be easily accessible. p
The system can be disconnected from the AC power source by opening this circuit breaker.

Check that the indications on the rating plate correspond to your AC powered system and to p
the actual electrical consumption of all the equipment to be connected to the system.

Never install the system near liquids or in an excessively damp environment. p
Never let a foreign body penetrate inside the system. p
Never block the ventilation grates of the system. p
Never expose the system to direct sunlight or source of heat. p
If the system must be stored prior to installation, storage must be in a dry place. p
The admissible storage temperature range is -15 ºC to +50 ºC. p

Special Precautions

All handling operations will require at least two people (unpacking, installation in rack system). p
Before and after the installation, if the UPS remains de-energized for a long period, the UPS must be p

energized for a period of 24 hours, at least once every 6 months (for a normal storage temperature
less than 25 °C). This charges the battery, thus avoiding possible irreversible damage.

During the replacement of the Battery Module, it is imperative to use the same type and number of p
element as the original Battery Module provided with the UPS to maintain an identical level of
performance and safety. In case of doubt, don’t hesitate to contact your EATON representative.

to the AC-power source.

2. Connect the loads to the UPS.

It is preferable to connect the
critical loads to the ‘Primary’
outlet group shown as 9 and
the non-critical loads to either
the Group 1 or Group 2 outlets
shown as 8. Group 1 and
Group 2 outlets can be
programmed to shed loads as
desired. For the 5PX 3000
models, connect any high-power
device to the 30 A outlet 7.

3. To program shutdown of outlets

during operation on battery
power to optimize the available
backup time, please check the
in/out settings.

Note: The UPS charges the battery as soon as it is connected to the AC-power source,

even if

button is not pressed.

Once the UPS is connected to the AC-power source, eight hours of charging is required before
the battery can supply the rated backup time.

4.5 Return of AC Input Power

Following an outage, the UPS restarts automatically when AC input power returns (unless the restart
function has been disabled) and the load is supplied again.

4.6 UPS remote control functions

5PX offers a choice between two remote control functions.

RPO p : Remote Power Off allow a remote contact to be used to disconnect all the equipment connected

to the UPS. Restarting the UPS requires manual intervention.
ROO p : Remote ON/OFF allows remote action of button

to shut down the UPS.

These functions are obtained by opening a contact connected between the appropriate pins of connector

on the rear panel of the UPS (see gures below).

Remote control connection and test

1. Check that the UPS is OFF and disconnected from the AC input source.

2. Remove connector

3. Connect a normally closed volt-free contact (60 V DC / 30 V AC max., 20 mA max., 0.75 mm

cable cross-section) between the two pins of connector 5 (see diagram).

Contact open: UPS shutdown
Contact closed: UPS start-up (UPS connected to AC power and AC power is available)
