13
Compliance
Wait for several hours before start using the UPS when it has been
moved from a cold place to a warm place.
+ Moving the UPS from a cold place to a warm place can catch the moisture
(condensation) on it, which may fail by energizing it in the condition.
Charge the UPS as early as possible (for 12 hours or more) after
purchasing.
+ Not using the UPS for a long time after purchase can deteriorate the battery that
may result in dysfunction.
+ You can charge the battery by plugging a power outlet (commercial power
supply) into the "AC input" plug of the UPS.
When storing the UPS, charge the battery for 12 hours or more, and turn
off the power supply switch before storing it.
+ Even if the battery is not used, the battery is naturally discharged inside, and if it
is left for a long time, it goes into an over discharge state. In consequence, the
backup time may become shorter, or the battery may become unusable.
+ 25 degrees Celsius or below temperature is recommended for storing the UPS
for a long term.
Connect the UPS's "AC input" plug to the commercial power outlet for
12 hours or longer, when; the storage temperature is 25 degrees Celsius
or below, then after every six months, and the storage temperature is 40
degrees Celsius or below, then after every two months.
+ Turn off "Power" button of the UPS during storage.
Prevent the short circuit between the output lines of the UPS, or the
output line on the earth (grounding.)
+ The UPS may fail.
Do not plug in the UPS's "AC input" plug into the UPS's "power output"
outlet during the backup operation.
+ The UPS may fail.
Do not connect the page printer (such as a laser printer) to the UPS.
+ The page printer has a large peak current, which may result in the detection of
the excessive connection capacity.
Make sure of checking the operation first before using the UPS in
combination with the devices with large fluctuations in power frequency,
such as a household power generator.
+ The UPS automatically recognizes the input power frequency when the input
power is supplied. Connecting the UPS in a state where the input power
frequency is out of the specified value can cause the misrecognition of the power
frequency, which may result in the abnormal operation. It is okay for the power to
switch from the commercial power supply to the generator's power while the UPS
is running. However, adjust the frequency of the generator to match with the
commercial power supply.
Do not use the unit for the frequent backup operation.
+ Battery may deteriorate to the extent where the specified backup time cannot be
maintained.
Safety Precautions
BW40T/BW55T/BW100T/BW120T

Compliance
Do not install or store the UPS in the place exposed to the direct
sunlight.
+ The internal battery may deteriorate due to the temperature surge that may result
in dysfunction.
Turn off the UPS power before switching off the commercial power
supply.
+ Once the commercial power supply stops, it switches to the backup operation. If
the frequency of backup operation becomes high, the battery life may be
significantly reduced.
When connecting the UPS with the inductive equipment, such as coils,
motors, transformers, make sure of checking the operation beforehand.
+ Some types of equipment may prevent the normal operation of the UPS due to
the inrush current, etc.
The UPS will not start up unless until the battery is connected.
+ Note that it also does not start in an over-discharge state or the state where the
degraded battery is connected.
Do not run the withstand voltage test.
+ The power supply input line contains the surge absorbing elements, which are
subject to destruction with the withstand voltage test.
+ Execute the insulation resistance within the range of DC 250V.
