Ups Location Warnings; Equipment Connection Warnings; Battery Warnings - Tripp-Lite SMART 700 RM Manual De Operación

Safety
This manual contains important instructions and warnings that should be followed
during the installation, operation and storage of all Tripp Lite UPS Systems.

UPS Location Warnings

• Install your UPS indoors, away from excess moisture or heat, dust or direct
sunlight.
• For best performance, keep the indoor temperature between 32° F and 104° F
(between 0° C and 40° C).
• Leave adequate space around all sides of the UPS for proper ventilation.
UPS Connection Warnings
• Connect your UPS to a three-wire, grounded AC power outlet. Do not remove or
modify the ground pin of the UPS's plug.
• Do not use two-prong adapters with the UPS's plug. Do not plug your UPS into
itself; this will damage the UPS and void your warranty.
• If you are connecting your UPS to a motor-powered AC generator, the generator
must provide clean, filtered computer-grade output.

Equipment Connection Warnings

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

Battery Warnings

• Your UPS does not require routine maintenance. Do not open your UPS for any
reason. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
• Battery replacement must be performed by qualified service personnel. Because
the batteries present a risk of electrical shock and burn from high short-circuit
current, observe proper precautions. Unplug and turn off the UPS before
performing battery replacement. Use tools with insulated handles and replace
the existing batteries with the same number and type of new batteries (Sealed
Lead-Acid). Do not open the batteries. Do not short or bridge the battery
terminals with any object.
• The UPS batteries are recyclable. Refer to local codes for disposal requirements
or call 1-800-SAV-LEAD (1-800-728-5323) for complete recycling information.
Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire.
• Do not attempt to add external batteries unless your UPS is equipped with
External Battery Connectors. Connect only Tripp Lite battery packs with the
correct voltage (see voltage requirements label on the rear of your UPS) and the
correct connector color to match your UPS's External Battery Connector.
• Observe proper polarity when connecting replacement batteries. Only connect
Negative (black) wires to Negative (black) terminals. Only connect Positive (red)
wires to Positive (red) terminals.
• During "hot-swap" battery replacement (when the UPS and connected equip-
ment are turned ON) your UPS will not be able to provide battery backup in the
event of a blackout because the batteries will be momentarily disconnected as
they are exchanged.
