Important Safety Warnings

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. This manual contains important instructions and warnings that should be followed during the installation
and maintenance of all Tripp Lite SmartOnline Rackmount UPS Systems and their batteries.

UPS Location Warnings

• Install your UPS indoors, away from excess moisture or heat, direct sunlight, dust and conductive contaminants.

• Install your UPS in a structurally sound area. Your UPS is extremely heavy; take care when moving and lifting the unit.

• Only operate your UPS at indoor temperatures between 32° F and 104° F (between 0° C and 40° C). For best results, keep indoor
temperatures between 62° F and 84° F (between 17° C and 29° C).

• Leave adequate space around all sides of the UPS for proper ventilation: 12 in. (30 cm.) clearance at the rear; 4 in. (10 cm.) at sides
and on top.

• Do not install the UPS near magnetic storage media, as this may result in data corruption.

UPS Connection Warnings

• The power supply for this unit must be single phase rated in accordance with the equipment nameplate. It also must be suitably grounded.

Equipment Connection Warnings

• Do not use Tripp Lite UPS Systems in life support applications in which a malfunction or failure of a Tripp Lite UPS System could
cause failure or significantly alter the performance of a life support device.

• Connect your UPS’s and/or isolation transformer’s grounding terminal to a grounding electrode conductor.

• The UPS is connected to a DC energy source (battery). The output terminals may be live when the UPS is not connected to an AC supply.

Maintenance Warnings

• Your UPS, transformer and battery pack(s) do not require routine maintenance. Do not open them for any reason. There are no
user-serviceable parts inside.

Battery Warnings

• Do not operate your UPS without connecting it to an external battery pack.

• Connect only Tripp Lite battery packs to your UPS’s external battery connector.

• The batteries in your battery pack are recyclable. Refer to local codes for disposal requirements, or if in the USA call
1-800-SAV-LEAD (1-800-728-5323) for complete recycling information. CAUTION: Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire, as this
could cause the battery to explode.

• Because the batteries present a risk of electrical shock and burn from high short-circuit current, batteries should be changed only by
trained service personnel observing proper precautions. Consult your battery pack manual before proceeding. Remove watches, rings,
and other metal objects. Use tools with insulated handles. Wear rubber gloves and boots. Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of the
batteries. Do not short or bridge the battery terminals with any object. Disconnect the charging source prior to connecting or
disconnecting battery terminals. Determine if the batteries are inadvertently grounded. If inadvertently grounded, remove the source
of the ground. Contact with any part of a grounded battery can result in electrical shock. The likelihood of such shock will be
reduced if such grounds are removed during installation and maintenance.

• Do not open or mutilate the batteries. Released electrolyte is harmful to the skin and eyes, and may be toxic.

• Fuses should be replaced only by factory authorized personnel. Blown fuses should be replaced only with fuses of the same number
and type.

• Service and repair should be done only by trained personnel. During any service work to the UPS, it should be turned off or manually
bypassed via the transformer (see pg. 6-7). Note that potentially lethal voltages exist within this unit as long as the battery supply
is connected.

• Do not connect or disconnect battery pack(s) while the UPS is operating from the battery supply or when the transformer is not in
bypass mode.

• During “hot-swap” battery pack replacement (when the transformer is on manual bypass and connected equipment is turned ON)
your UPS will be unable to provide battery backup in the event of a blackout.

Your equipment may be rackmounted in 4-post rack enclosures using the included rack shelves and the following suggested mounting
procedures, which should be used instead of the procedures described in your Owner's Manual (if any). These procedures are for common
enclosure types and may not be appropriate for all rack enclosures. You must determine the fitness of rackmount hardware and procedures
before mounting. If this hardware or these procedures are not suitable for your application, contact your rack enclosure's manufacturer for
a solution.

Mount one piece of equipment in a 4-post rack section using the Single Unit Installation procedure, or one piece of equipment in a 2-post
rack using the 2-Post (Telecom) Installation procedure. If you have two UPSRMRII shelf kits and a sufficiently deep rack, you may mount
two pieces of equipment in a 4-post rack section using the Back to Back Installation procedure.

Suggested Tower Mount Installation

The UPS system is shipped with two sets of plastic feet (A) and extensions (B) that
can be used to tower mount the UPS, a battery pack, and either an isolation transformer
or a second battery pack.

Adjust the feet to a width of 10.25 inches (26 cm) for a UPS and battery pack, or
to a width of 15.375 inches (39 cm) for three units. Align the feet in your installation
area, approximately 10 inches (26 cm) apart. Have one or more assistants help you
place the units on their sides in the feet. The control panel of the UPS should be
the UPS’s upper corner and face outward. If you are installing a transformer, place
it between the UPS and its battery pack.
