IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

This manual contains important safety instructions that should be followed during
the installation and maintenance of the UPS and batteries. Please read this
manual thoroughly before attempting to install or operate this UPS.

WARNING:

§ To prevent the risk of fire or electric shock, install the UPS in a temperature
and humidity controlled room, free of conductive contaminants.

§ Operate the UPS only from a properly grounded/earthed AC supply.

§ To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove the cover, as it has no

user-serviceable parts inside. Some components are live, even when AC
power is disconnected. For service, contact a qualified technician.

§ To reduce the risk of fire, use the proper rating when replacing the fuse.

CAUTION:

Although your UPS has been designed and manufactured to assure personal
safety, improper use can result in electrical shock or fire. To insure safety,
please observe the following rules:

§ Turn off and unplug your UPS before cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol
cleaners. A dry cloth is recommended to remove dust from the surface of
your UPS.

§ Do not install or operate your UPS in or near water.

§ Do not place UPS on an unstable cart, stand, or table.

§ Do not place UPS under direct sunlight or close to heat emitting sources.

§ To allow proper ventilation of UPS, do not block or cover sides of unit.

§ Do not place UPS power cord in any area where it may get damaged by

heavy objects.

§ Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the UPS. Do not attempt to
service the UPS, as it has no user-serviceable parts inside. Refer all repairs
to qualified service personnel.

ATTENTION:

Turn off and unplug your UPS from the outlet and contact qualified service
personnel if:

§ The power cord or plug is damaged.

§ Liquid has been spilled on the UPS.

§ The fuse blows frequently.

§ The UPS does not operate even when user follows the operating

instructions.

CONDITIONS OF USE: The input receptacle must be within 6 feet (1.8 meters)
of the UPS.

Your UPS provides conditioned power to connected equipment. Maximum load
must not exceed that shown on UPS rating label. If uncertain, consult your
distributor or Liebert.

Placing magnetic storage media on top of the UPS may result in data corruption.
This equipment can be operated by individuals without previous training.

INTRODUCTION & SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

Congratulations on your choice of the Liebert PowerSure ProActive
Uninterruptible Power System (UPS). It provides conditioned power to
microcomputers and other sensitive electronic equipment.

The PowerSure ProActive is a compact, “Automatic Voltage Regulation” UPS. It
offers “line-interactive” features by continuously conditioning and regulating
output voltage, whether the utility power is present or not. It supplies connected
equipment with stepped approximation to sinewave power to simulate the power
generated by the utility.

NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation. This equipment uses, generates and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference with radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and
on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:

- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

- Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.

- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that which

the receiver is connected.

- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

BATTERY OPERATION

Battery mode occurs in event of extreme input conditions or complete utility
failure. During battery mode the Utility LED will flash every second and an alarm
will sound every 3 seconds. This will change to a beep every second when
battery runs low (approximately 2 minutes remaining).

WARNING: Turning off the UPS while in battery mode will result in loss of output
power.

Press Battery Test button occasionally to ensure battery is fully charged.

MAINTENANCE

The PowerSure ProActive UPS requires very little maintenance. The batteries
are valve regulated, nonspillable, lead acid, and require that they be kept
charged to obtain their designed life. When ON, the UPS continuously charges
the batteries when connected to the utility supply.

When storing the UPS for any length of time, it is recommended to plug in and
turn on the UPS for at least 24 hours every four to six months to ensure full
recharge of the batteries.

The following will help ensure trouble-free operation for years to come:

- Vacuum dust from the ventilation intake occasionally.

- Wipe the cover periodically with a dry cloth.

- Occasionally press the UPS test button to test the condition of the batteries.

FUSE REPLACEMENT PROCEDURES

Fuse Holder

CAUTION: Before changing the supply fuse, turn off the UPS, and unplug the

input cord from the AC input power supply and from the UPS.

1. Remove the fuse holder by inserting a flat blade screwdriver into the slot and
pulling out as indicated in the figure above.

2. Remove the input fuse.

3. Remove the spare fuse from its position by using the screwdriver to push it
out.

4. Place spare fuse in the input fuse position, and replace the fuse holder. The
fuse holder will lock into position.

5. Reconnect the input power lead to the UPS, and the input power lead to the
input AC supply.

6. Restart the UPS. The UPS is ready for normal operation.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If the UPS fails to operate properly, turn off the unit and repeat the steps in the
installation section of this manual. If the problem persists, refer to the chart
below:

PROBLEM CAUSE SOLUTION

and restart the UPS. For further help, call your
Liebert representative.

Plug in power
cord securely.

Replace fuse and restart UPS.
Call a qualified electrician.

Wait until voltage rises to appropriate level

AC voltage must be less than 144 VAC for
115V, 270 VAC for 230V.

Check the fuse holder at rear of UPS. If fuse is
blown, replace it and restart the UPS. If problem
persists, disconnect some of the equipment from
your UPS - the total wattage of your equipment
may exceed the capacity of the UPS. For
further help, call your Liebert representative.

Turn OFF equipment and recharge UPS battery
for at least 8 hours. If problem persists, contact
your Liebert representative.

Consult the Sitenet 1 User Manual or contact
your LAN administrator.

use in a manner contrary to the accompanying instructions or applicable codes.
WARNING: Warranty is void if the battery is allowed to discharge below the minimum
battery cutoff point. To prevent such discharge DO NOT leave the unit power switch
"ON" for more than two (2) days without AC power being supplied to the UPS. The
battery must be recharged every four (4) to six (6) months when not in use.

If the UPS fails to conform with the above warranty within the two year warranty
period, Liebert will repair or replace the UPS, at Liebert's option. Repairs or
replacements are warranted for the remainder of the original warranty period. To
