Equipment Connection Warnings

CAUTION: Make sure UPS is powered down and disconnected

from AC mains power. The battery circuitry is not isolated from AC mains. Turn off power to the UPS prior to battery connection.

Do not connect or disconnect battery modules while the UPS is operating. Never attempt to install electrical equipment during a thunderstorm. Make sure your external battery matches your UPS Rating: 24V or 48V.

External Battery Warnings

Connect the GREEN ground wire between an external metal battery cabinet and the ground lug on the front of the UPS.

Connect the RED and BLACK cables to the external battery. Be sure to observe the polarity: RED to the positive terminal and BLACK to the negative terminal of the external battery.

Assembly Instructions

5Once the cable assembly is attached to the external battery at the end opposite the DC connector, it can be mated to the DC connector on the UPS system’s front panel.
