Safety of persons
• RISK OF VOLTAGE BACKFEED. The system has its own power source (the battery). Isolate the UPS
and check for hazardous voltage upstream and downstream during lockout-tagout operation.
Terminal blocks may be energized even if the system is disconnected from the AC power source.
• Dangerous voltage levels are present within the system. It should be opened exclusively by
qualiedservicepersonnel.
• The system has its own power source (the battery). Consequently, the power outlets may be
energized even if the systems is disconnected from the AC power source. Dangerous voltage levels
- Batteries constitute a danger (electrical shock, burns). The short-circuit current may be very high.
• Precautions must be taken for all handling:
- Wear rubber gloves and boots.
- Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries.
- Disconnect charging source prior to connecting or disconnecting battery terminals.
- Determine if battery is inadvertently grounded. If inadvertently grounded, remove source from
ground. Contact with any part of a grounded battery can result in electrical shock. The likelihood
of such shock can be reduced if such grounds are removed during installation and maintenance
(applicable to equipment and remote battery supplies not having a grounded supply circuit).
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Product safety
• The UPS connection instructions and operation described in the manual must be followed in
the indicated order.
- 60A rating, for 10kVA models,
in accordance with the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.
The upstream circuit breaker must be easily accessible. The unit can be disconnected from AC
power source by opening this circuit breaker.
• A means of disconnection and overcurrent protection devices shall be provided by others for
permanently connected AC input/output circuits.
• Check that the indications on the rating plate correspond to your AC powered system and
to the actual electrical consumption of all the equipment to be connected to the system.
• For PLUGGABLE EQUIPMENT, the socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall
be easily accessible
• Never install the system near liquids or in an excessively damp environment.
• Never let a foreign body penetrate inside the system.
• Never block the ventilation grates of the system.
• Never expose the system to direct sunlight or source of heat.
• If the system must be stored prior to installation, storage must be in a dry place.
• The admissible storage temperature range is 32 to 104°F / 0 to 40ºC.
• The system is not for use in a computer room AS DEFINED IN the standard for the Protection
of Information Technology Equipment, ANSI/NFPA 75.
Contact Eaton resellers to order a special battery kit, if needed to meet the ANSI/NFPA 75
requirement.
For Model 9PX8KSP, Disconnection Device - CAUTION - A disconnect switch shall be provided by
circuit overcurrent protection for 45 amperes rating in accordance with the National Electric Code.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Special precautions
• The unit is heavy: wear safety shoes and use vacuum lifter preferentially for handling operations.
• All handling operations will require at least two people (unpacking, lifting, installation in rack
system).
• For EBM, straps are provided only for unpacking manually the unit from the carton; don’t use the
straps to carry the unit around. The unit can slip from the straps during handling (risk of injury and
product damage):
- keep 12in / 30cm minimum distance between the straps
- lift the unit carefully and keep it at low height
- keep the unit horizontal during unpacking.
• Before and after the installation, if the UPS remains de-energized for a long period, the UPS must be
energized for a period of 24 hours, at least once every 6 months (for a normal storage temperature
less than 77°F (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
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.
• All repairs and service should be performed by AUTHORIZED SERVICE PERSONNEL ONLY.
There are NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS inside the UPS.

1. Introduction
The Eaton® 9PX uninterruptible power system (UPS) protects your sensitive electronic equipment from
the most common power problems, including power failures, power sags, power surges, brownouts, line
noise, high voltage spikes, frequency variations, switching transients, and harmonic distortion.
Power outages can occur when you least expect it and power quality can be erratic. These power problems
have the potential to corrupt critical data, destroy unsaved work sessions, and damage hardware - causing
hours of lost productivity and expensive repairs.

and generator compatibility.
• ABM® technology that uses advanced battery management to increase battery service life,
optimize recharge time, and provide a warning before the end of useful battery life.
•Selectable High Efficiency mode of operation.
• Standard communication options: Network-MS card (Web/SNMP), one RS-232 communication
port, one USB communication port, and relay output contacts.
•Optional connectivity cards with enhanced communication capabilities (Modbus-MS, Relay-MS).
•Extended runtime with up to four Extended Battery Modules (EBMs) per UPS.
•Firmware that is easily upgradable without a service call.
•Remote On/Off control through Remote On/Off (ROO) and Remote Power Off (RPO) ports.
