Important Safety Instructions

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING! The mounting shelves are not intended to support more than
one battery pack. Do not stack multiple battery packs on a single set of
mounting shelves. Failure to follow this warning may lead to product
damage and/or risk of personal bodily harm.
• Use caution when lifting battery packs. Because of the considerable weight of
all battery packs, at least two people should assist in lifting and installing
them.
• Make certain the battery packs and UPS use the same DC voltage before
connecting them.
• Use only Tripp Lite external battery packs with overcurrent protection.
Installation is by qualified service personnel only. Contact Tripp Lite Customer
Support at 773.869.1234 for the appropriate Tripp Lite battery pack to
connect.
• Your external metal battery cabinets are provided with a means for
equipotential protective bonding for safety. When using 2-pin connector
external batteries, be sure to bond the metal enclosure of your external
battery to the metal enclosure of the UPS system. Three-pin/conductor battery
packs are equipped with a ground bond plug. Plastic enclosures do not require
bonding. See below for ground bonding strap requirements:
