INSTALLATION

This section explains:

 Equipment inspection
 Safety precautions
 UPS installation
 UPS top and side panels

Inspecting the Equipment

If any equipment has been damaged during shipment, keep the shipping
cartons and packing materials for the carrier or place of purchase and
file a claim for shipping damage. If you discover damage after
acceptance, file a claim for concealed damage.

To file a claim for shipping damage or concealed damage: 1) File with
the carrier within 15 days of receipt of the equipment; 2) Send a copy of
the damage claim within 15 days to your service representative.

Safety Precautions

Read the following precautions before you install the UPS.

I M P O R T A N T S A F E T Y I N S T R U C T I O N S

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. This manual contains important instructions that you
should follow during installation and maintenance of the UPS and batteries. Please
read all instructions before operating the equipment and save this manual for future
reference.

W A R N I N G

 This UPS contains its own energy source (batteries). The output receptacles may

carry live voltage even when the UPS is not connected to an AC supply.

 Do not remove or unplug the input cord when the UPS is turned on. This removes

the safety ground from the UPS and the equipment connected to the UPS.

Installation

 To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, install this UPS in a temperature and

humidity controlled, indoor environment, free of conductive contaminants. Ambient
temperature must not exceed 40°C (104°F). Do not operate near water or
excessive humidity (95% max).

 With the exception of the user-replaceable battery, all servicing of this equipment

must be performed by qualified service personnel.

 Before maintenance or repair, all connections must be removed. Before

maintenance, repair, or shipment, the unit must be completely switched off and
unplugged or disconnected.

C A U T I O N

 Important Notice The UPS ground (earth) conductor carries leakage current from

the loads in addition to any leakage current generated by the UPS. This UPS
generates no more than 0.5 mA of current (120V Model), or 1 mA of current
(230V Model).

 To limit the total leakage current to 3.5 mA, the load leakage must be limited to

3 mA on the 120V Model and 2.5 mA on the 230V Model.

 If you do not know the load leakage current, replace the UPS power cord

(230V Model only) with a power cord that uses a locking plug with a minimum
rating of 10A (such as IEC 309).

 If you do not have a matching receptacle, consult an electrician to install the

proper receptacle.

 The three-wire receptacle that you plug the UPS into must have a good

(low-impedance) ground (protective earth) connection to provide a safe path for
leakage current.

Quick Startup

2

The Powerware 3110 provides protection against many power problems,
including power outages. It also provides spike suppression and line
noise filtering to protect your equipment.

1. On 230V Models, plug the UPS power cord into the input
connector on the UPS side panel.

2. Plug the equipment to be protected into the UPS output
receptacles.

DO NOT protect laser printers with the UPS because of the
exceptionally high power requirements of the heating elements.
