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/Tower 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.
• 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 power module'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 power module and battery module(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 module.
• Connect only Tripp Lite battery modules to your UPS power module's external battery connector.
• Batteries can present a risk of electrical shock and burn from high short-circuit current. Observe proper precautions. Unplug and turn
off the UPS and disconnect the battery module from the UPS before performing battery replacement. Use tools with insulated
handles. Battery replacement should only be performed by authorized service personnel using the same number and type of batteries
(Sealed Lead-Acid). Do not open the UPS or batteries; there are no user-serviceable parts inside. Do not short or bridge the battery
terminals with any object. CAUTION: Do not dispose of batteries in a fire, as this could cause them to explode. The batteries in your
battery module are recyclable; refer to local codes for disposal requirements. In the USA call 1-800-SAV-LEAD (1-800-728-5323),
1-800-8-BATTERY (1-800-822-8837), or visit www.rbrc.com for complete recycling information.
• 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. Note that potentially lethal voltages exist within this unit as long as the battery supply
is connected.
• Do not connect or disconnect battery module(s) while the UPS is operating from the battery supply or when the detachable PDU is
not in bypass mode.
• During "hot-swap" battery module replacement your UPS will be unable to provide battery backup in the event of a blackout.
