5.1 Operation
The U PS s ystem contains no user-serviceable par ts. If the battery s ervice life (3-5 years at 25 °C
ambient temperature) has been exceeded, the batteries must be replaced. In this case, please contact
the manufacturer for replacement battery packs.
5.2 Storage
Before storing, charge the UPS for 5 hours. Store the UPS covered and upright in a cool, dry location.
During storage, recharge the battery in accordance with the following table:
5.3 Recommended Replacement Intervals
The Staco UPS has a long design life. Due to the characteristics of the part, not the design of the UPS,
certain components used in the design have a limited life, even with proper maintenance.
Service and maintenance work must be performed only by factory authorized personnel.
Staco recommends these limited-life components be periodically inspected and replaced before the
expected expiration of their life cycle. The recommended replacement schedule is an estimate only. The
life of these parts depends on site conditions such as ambient temperature, load profile, cleanliness of
environment and other factors.
Staco Recommends a Factory Authorized Preventative Maintenance review is schedule at least once a
year.
Be sure to deliver the spent battery to a recycling facility.
The functional lifetime of VRLA batteries is significantly affected by the temperature at which they are
stored and operated. Ideally, VRLA batteries should be used in a 25º C (77º F) environment. For
every 8.3º C (15º F) increase in temperature, the life expectancy of a battery will be halved. Exposure to
temperatures in excess of 32º C (90º F) should be limited to no more than 30 days per year. Under no
circumstances should the VRLA battery be exposed to temperatures over 40º C (104º F) which can lead
to thermal runaway, a condition that damages the battery. Thermal runaway can cause batteries to
swell. If the battery cases burst, the hazardous contents may be exposed.
Maintaining proper ambient temperature usually requires installing the product in a temperature
controlled space. Equipment rooms without cooling systems do not generally maintain the proper
conditions for good battery life.
*Derate capacity to 95% when the output voltage is adjusted to 115VAC. Derate capacity to 90% when the output voltage is
adjusted to 110VAC. Derate capacity to 80% when the output voltage is adjusted to 100VAC.
