Operation Warnings - Tripp-Lite APS 912 INT El Manual Del Propietario

Safety
This manual contains important instructions and warnings that should be followed during the
installation, operation and storage of all Tripp Lite APS Systems.
APS Location Warnings
• Install your APS indoors, away from excess moisture or heat, dust or direct sunlight.
• Leave adequate space around all sides of the APS for proper ventilation.
• Do not install the APS near magnetic data storage media, as this may result in data
corruption.
Battery Connection Warnings
• Your UPS will not operate with or without utility power until batteries are connected.
• Multiple battery systems must be made up of batteries of the same voltage, age, amp
hour capacity and type.
• Keep battery location well ventilated. Explosive hydrogen gas can accumulate near
batteries if they are not kept well ventilated.
• Sparks may result during final battery connection. Always observe proper polarity as
batteries are connected.
• Do not allow objects to contact the two DC input terminals. Do not short or bridge these
terminals together. Serious injury to property or person could result.
Equipment Connection Warnings
• Do not use Tripp Lite APS Systems in life support applications where a malfunction or
failure of a Tripp Lite APS System could cause failure or significantly alter the perfor-
mance of a life support device.
• Do not connect a surge suppressor, line conditioner or UPS to the output of the APS.
• Corded models: Do not modify the APS's plug in a way that eliminates its ground
connection. Do not use power adaptors that will eliminate the plug's ground connection.
Connect your APS only to a properly grounded AC power outlet. Do not plug your APS
into itself; this will damage the APS and void your warranty.

Operation Warnings

• Your APS does not require routine maintenance. Do not open your APS for any reason.
There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
• Potentially lethal voltages exist within this unit as long as the battery supply and/or AC
input are connected. During any service work, the battery supply and AC input connection
(if any) should therefore be disconnected.
• Do not connect or disconnect batteries while the APS is operating from the battery
supply. Dangerous arcing may result.
