Read and observe the user manual and safety instructions in this chapter before taking any further action (transportation, storage, connection, startup etc.).
Since the UPS equipment uses mains voltage and has a suitable energy accumulator (high-capacity batteries) installed either inside or outside the device, the instructions in this chapter are very important for all users and personnel. For this reason, appropriate safety instructions on the topic of batteries and battery packs are also dealt with here.
Work on the UPS equipment may only be performed by authorised technical personnel.
3 Safety
3.1 General safety instructions
3.2 Transportation and storage
The UPS may only be transported to its place of intended use in the original packaging. The same applies for removals or returns.
The equipment must not be transported or stored upside down. Position the equipment securely during transportation, taking its centre of
gravity into account. Due to its weight, UPS equipment with integrated batteries may drop suddenly if its position shifts slightly.
When storing equipment, make sure that it is also securely positioned.
3.3 Setup
The UPS is intended for use in ventilated rooms. During setup or installation, the installation location prescribed by the
manufacturer must be observed. There is a risk of condensation where the UPS is exposed to extreme and
rapid temperature changes. Before taking any further steps, the equipment should be allowed to acclimatise for at least 2 hours.
Never set up or operate the equipment in a damp environment. Keep fluids away from the equipment.
The UPS must not be set up near heat sources.

Ensure that the vents of the equipment are not blocked and that the circulation of air is not impeded.
3.4 Connection
Only connect the UPS to an earthed shock-proof socket. Under no
circumstances should the equipment be operated without a protective earth conductor.
The house installation socket must be easily accessible and located in the vicinity of the UPS. In the case of a fixed connection, ensure that the shortest possible cable lengths are used.
Only a VDE-tested and CE-labelled mains cable may be used to connect the UPS to the house installation socket. In the case of a fixed connection, a suitable cable must be used.
3.5 Operation
Only use VDE-tested and CE-labelled electrical cables to connect the consumer load to the UPS. In the case of a fixed connection to the consumer load, a suitable cable must be used.
The fuse protection for the consumer load must always be installed directly in front of it, and never centrally in front of the UPS.
Do not operate any household appliances and power tools, e.g. fan heaters, vacuum cleaners, drills, hairdryers, toasters etc., via the UPS.
Do not connect any consumer loads to the UPS which could overload the equipment (e.g. laser printers).
The sum of the earth fault currents of all consumer loads connected to the UPS must not exceed 3.5mA.
Keep the connecting cables as short as possible and always lay these correctly. Avoid the dangers of laying connecting cables in locations where they may be tripped over, crushed or torn open etc.
The mains power cable must never be disconnected during the operation of the UPS, otherwise the protective earthing of the UPS and the connected consumer loads will be lost.
The UPS equipment contains an energy accumulator (batteries). This means that the output of the UPS may be live even if it is not connected on the line side.
To switch off the UPS completely, first press the switch on the front of the equipment (ON/OFF), wait until the UPS has switched off, then disconnect the

Warning – danger of electric shocks and burns. Batteries can cause electric shocks and are capable of producing high short­circuit currents which can also inflict burns.
Unauthorised persons must be kept away from batteries.
Do not place batteries against heat sources and do not throw them into a fire as they might explode!
Do not open or destroy batteries. The electrolyte thereby released is extremely dangerous to persons and to the environment (danger of chemical burns to skin and eyes, toxic).
Defective batteries must be disposed of in an environmentally-friendly manner. Never throw batteries into the regular refuse. The local waste disposal regulations must be observed.
Warning – danger of electric shocks. The UPS remains connected to the battery circuit even after it has been disconnected from the mains power supply and has a dangerous voltage potential. Therefore always disconnect the battery circuit before carrying out servicing or maintenance work and make sure that the equipment is isolated from the supply.
power supply (switch off the mains input externally or disconnect the UPS from the mains, e.g. by unplugging it).
Make sure that no fluids or foreign bodies enter the UPS.
3.6 Handling batteries
3.7 Maintenance, servicing and faults
Work on batteries may only be performed and monitored by personnel with appropriate technical knowledge about the required precautions.
Unauthorised persons must be kept away from batteries. When working on the UPS, the following precautions must be taken:
o Remove wristwatches, rings and other metallic objects o Only use electrically-insulated tools
The UPS must not be dismantled.

4 Introduction
This manual is intended to provide basic information about single-phase line interactive UPS equipment, namely the functional principle, use of the various functions and the procedure to follow in the event of faults. In addition, this manual contains information on transportation and storage as well as handling and installation of the UPS equipment. The planning guidelines in this manual relate only to the specific requirements for UPS equipment. The national and local regulations for electrical installations must be followed without fail during installation. The contents of the description for this equipment may change as a result of technological developments. Though we have endeavoured to make these contents as accurate and clear as possible, we would be grateful for information on any errors which are noted. We accept no liability for errors in this description or their consequences.
The purpose of UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) equipment is to protect sensitive electrical devices such as computers, workstations, electronic points of sale, mission-critical instruments, telecommunications equipment, process controls etc. from faults which may arise as a result of poor power supply quality or even power failures. Sensitive devices such as these require comprehensive protection against electrical faults. These may be external faults (e.g. bad weather, operating faults) or faults caused by adjacent devices (e.g. motors, air conditioning units, processing machines, welding equipment etc.). The power supply faults may be summarised as follows:
o Fast and slow line-voltage spikes and fluctuations o Mains power failure o Fast and slow frequency spikes and fluctuations o Mains heterodyning or transient voltages
The UPS equipment monitors the power supply parameters described above using suitable countermeasures to protect the connected users (e.g. changeover to support operation in the event of temporary over- or under­voltage to protect the end devices).
