Safety and General Information
• Adhere to all national and local electrical codes.
All wirin
•
•Changes and modifications to this unit not expressly approved by APC could void the warranty.
•This unit is intended only for indoor use in a controlled environmen
• Do
•Be sure the air vents on the unit are not blocked. Allow adequate space for proper ventilation.
•For a UPS with a factory installed power cord, connect the UPS power cable directly to a wall outlet. Do not use surge protectors
or extension cords.
•The battery typically lasts for two to five years. Environmental factors impact battery life. Elevated ambient temperatures, high
humidity, poor quality mains power, and frequent short duration discharges will shorten battery life.
• Replace the battery immediately when the UPS indicates battery replacement is necessary.
• The equipment is heavy. Always practice safe lifting techniques adequate for the weight of the equipment.
•The batteries are heavy. Remove the batteries before installing the UPS and external battery packs (XLBPs), in a rack.

Deenergizing safety
The UPS contains internal batteries and may present a shock hazard even when disconnected from the branch circuit (mains).
Before installing or servicing the equipment verify that the:
• Mains circuit breaker is in the OFF position.
• Internal UPS batteries are removed.
• XLBP battery modules are disconnected.
Electrical safety
• For models with a hardwired input, the connection to the branch circuit (mains) must be performed by a qualified electrician.
• 230 V models only: In order to maintain compliance with the EMC directive for products sold in Europe, output cords attached to
the UPS must not exceed 10 meters in length.
• The protective earth conductor for the UPS carries the leakage current from the load devices (computer equipment) . An insulated
ground conductor is to be installed as part of the branch circuit that supplies the UPS. The conductor must have the same size and
insulation material as the grounded and ungrounded branch circuit supply conductors. The conductor will typically be green and
with or without a yellow stripe.
• The UPS input ground conductor must be properly bonded to protective earth at the service panel.
• If the UPS input power is supplied by a separately derived system, the ground conductor must be properly bonded at the
supply transformer or motor generator set.
Battery safety
• Before installing or replacing the batteries, remove jewelry such as wristwatches and rings.
High short circuit current through conductive materials could cause severe burns.
• Do not dispos e of batteries by burning them. The batte r ies may explode.
• Do not open or mutilate batteries. Released electrolyte is harmful to the skin and eyes, and may be toxic.
Hardwire safety
• Verify that all branch circuit (mains) and low voltage (control) circuits are deenergized, and locked out before installing cables or
making connections, whether in the junction box or to the UPS.
• Wiring by a qualified electrician is required.
• Check national and lo cal co de s bef or e wiring.
• Strain relief is required for all hardwiring (not supplied).
• All openings that allow access to UPS hardwire terminals must be covered. Failure to do so may result in personal injury or
equipment damage.
• Select wire size and connectors according to national and local codes.
Snap in type strain reliefs are recommended.
General inf ormation
• The UPS will recognize as many as 10 external battery packs connected to the UPS. However there is no limit to the number of
XLBPs that can be used with the UPS.
Note: For each XLBP added, increased recharge time will be required.
• The model and serial numbers are located on a small, rear panel label. For some models, an additional label is located on the
chassis under the front bezel.
• Always recycle used batteries.
• Recycle the package materials or save them for reuse.
