1.2.1 Removing the Packaging and Positioning the Device
On delivery, the packaging must be inspected to ensure that it is whole and that it has not been crushed
or dented. Check in particular that neither of the two impact resistant devices on the packaging is red; if
one of them is red; follow the instructions on the packaging.
The essential details of the device are provided on the shipping document. The marking, weight and
dimensions of the various items making up the packing list are shown.
Check the state of the device by means of a visual inspection of both the inside and the outside. Any
dents seen mean that it has suffered shocks during shipping, which could compromise the normal
operation of the device.
1.2.2 Storage
Place the device in covered premises that are protected from direct contact with atmospheric agents and
dust. The following environmental values are those allowed in the storage area:
Temperature: -13°F to +167°F (-25 to + 75 °C)
Relative humidity: 30-95 % max.
WARNING
For the installation of a battery cabinet, if provided with the uninterruptible power supply, follow
the instructions given in the specific manual.
The list of material provided may vary depending on the order specifications. Most systems include the
following: this manual, the installation drawing, the warranty and eventual accessories.
1.2.3 Handling
The equipment must only be handled by adequately trained personnel.
1 Insert the forks of the fork-lift truck in the lower part of the device, from the front or back, and
ensure that they stick out about 12 inches on the other side.
2 Secure the device to the fork-lift before moving it.
In order to avoid the risk of the device overturning, ensure that it is firmly secured to the
fork-lift truck by means of appropriate ropes before moving it.
When being moved the cabinet should be handled with care; shocks or drops can damage it. Once in
position, remove the packaging carefully in order not to scratch the device.
The packaging should be removed as follows:
1. Cut the bands
2. Slide away the carton from above.
Page | 3
3. Remove the screws securing the cabinet to the wooden base.
1.2.4 Cooling of the Premises
The recommended operating temperature for the lifetime of the UPS
and of the batteries is between 20 and 25°C. The lifespan of the
battery depends on the operating temperature; with an operating temperature increase from 20°C to 30°C, the lifespan of the
batteries is halved.
The airflow inside UPS is by the fans located inside the UPS (forced
convection) and by the air around the side panels (natural
convection).
In order to ensure proper air circulation measures must be taken
during installation to avoid any obstructions to the free circulation of
air. These include the following:
• Ensure a distance of at least 24 inches from the ceiling, so as
not to hinder air extraction,
• Leave a free space of at least 36 inches at the front of the
equipment to ensure both the circulation of the air and
installation and maintenance operations;
• With natural convection the thermal load is dissipated to the
outside through the walls; thus a cabinet placed against a wall or in a hollow dissipates less heat than
one located in a free environment.
The following rule must be observed:
Leave at least one of the three side walls free: right, left or back.
• The bottom side kick panels must not be mounted for installations where cabinets are placed side by
side.

DANGER
• Check the Safety Instructions.
• Any incorrect connection or handling may cause damage to the UPS and/or the loads
connected to it. Read these instructions carefully and follow the steps indicated.
• This UPS must be installed by qualified electrician.
• It is advisable to provide a maintenance bypass switch or an electrical panel with individual
protection for input, output, and static bypass, as well as a manual bypass. This allows isolation
of unit during preventive maintenance or repair.
2.1 Accessing the UPS terminals
The following operations must be performed while the UPS is disconnected from the utility
mains power, switched off and all the input and output power switches on the equipment are
open. Before performing connection, open all the input and output power switches and
check that the UPS is completely isolated from all power sources: battery and AC power
line. In particular, check that:
- UPS input line is completely isolated;
- Batt er y circuit breaker/disconnect is open;
- All UPS power and load connection switches (SW IN, SWBY, SWOUT and SWMB) are
in the open position;
- No dangerous voltages are present (use a multimeter).
The first connection to be performed is the protective wire (earth ground cable) which has to
be inserted into the terminal labeled PE. The UPS must operate with the grounding system
connected.
WARNING
• Do not connect the output neutral to the input neutral.
• If the input connection is Delta the UPS can supply only Delta load.
• The output neutral must not be connected unless the UPS is the Wye version supplied
with an input neutral.
•TRANSFORMER BOXES (optional) are available for converting the distribution
systems from 3 to 4 wires.
•If a three-phase non-linear load is connected to the output, the current on the neutral
conductor can reach a value equal to 1.5 times the value of the phase current.
Dimension the input/output neutral cable appropriately taking this fact into account.
•The UPS cannot feed from a corner ground or mid-point grounded delta supply
source.
• Use only lugs or cables with tin-plated eyes for the connections.
• Ensure correct phase rotation at the input and output terminals
• Ensure correct polarity battery connections
The DC input requires a disconnect means which is provided in most Staco supplied battery
cabinets.
AC and DC cables and cable lugs are to be provided by others as part of the UPS installation
Page | 5
Each model can be configured for a delta input source with a delta connected load or for a wye
input with a wye connected load. If the load requires a neutral connection (i.e. wye), then an
input neutral must be provided. Refer to the Power Connection terminals diagrams later in this
section for details concerning configuration of the neutral to ground bond.
2.2 UPS - Single Module Configuration
The UPS is designed to work as Single input Unit or as Dual input Unit.

2.5 Differential (GFI)
UPS
a
b
a - EPO terminal board located on the UPS
b - EPO switch (not provided).
If the UPS protection against electric shock uses a differential current device (Ground Fault Interrupter),
it will have to have the following characteristics:
• Sensitivity 300mA
• Sensitive direct current and unidirectional components (class A or class B)
• Insensitive to transient cur r ent pulses
• Delay greater than or equal to 0.1 s.
In the standard version without an isolation transformer on the bypass line, the neutral from
the mains power supply is connected to the output neutral of the UPS.
THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS UPSTREAM AND DO WNSTREAM OF THE UPS MUST BE
EXACTLY THE SAME (DELTA-DELTA or WYE-WYE)
When operating in the presence of mains supply, a differential breaker (GFI) insta l led on the input will
intervene as the output circuit is not isolated from the input cir cuit.
When operating without mains supply (from battery) the input differenti al breaker will intervene only if it
is able to switch as a result of leakage current without any voltage at its poles (for example a
differential breaker with an auxiliary relay is not suitable). However it is possible to install additional
differential breakers on the output of the UPS possibly coordinated with those on the input.
2.6 Emergency Power off Device (EPO)
The UPS has an EPO (Emergency Power Off) function. In the event of an em er gency, using this
function will cause the UPS to shut down the rectifier, inverter, and static switch and completely
disconnect the power to the load. The Output circuit of the UPS should not be considered safe, unless
the UPS is Off and the input power source to the UPS has been removed by opening the input
disconnect devices which are external to the UPS, including the battery.
This function can be activated from the button (under a hinged clear plastic cover) on the control panel
or by a remote contact. This button must be depressed and held down until the UPS shuts down. On
the UPS, the jumper on the EPO terminals must be removed, and the wires from the auxiliary contact
of the button must be connected in place of the jumper. The contact must be closed with the button in
the rest position and must open when the button is pressed.
