5.1
Warehousing
The battery cabinet must be stored in an environment with a room temperature between 0°C
(+32°F) and +50°C (+122°F) and humidity less than 90% (not condensing).
The batteries installed inside the battery cabinet are lead-acid sealed and do not require main-
tenance (VRLA). The batteries should be charged for 12 hours every 3 months by connecting the
battery cabinet to the UPS and turning on the DC breaker located on the rear panel. Repeat this
procedure every two months if the storage ambient temperature is above +25°C (+77°F).
CAUTION
The battery cabinet must never be stored if the batteries are partially or totally discharged.
LEGRAND is not liable for any damage or bad functioning caused to the UPS by wrong warehousing.

Dismantling
DANGER
Dismantling and disposal operations may only be done by a qualified electrician. These instruc-
tions are to be considered indicative: in every country there are different regulations with regard
to the disposal of electronic or hazardous waste such as batteries. It is necessary to strictly adhere
to the standards in force in the country where the equipment is used.
Do not throw any component of the equipment in the ordinary rubbish.
Batteries must be disposed of in a site intended for the recovery of toxic waste. Disposal in the
traditional rubbish is not allowed.
Apply to the competent agencies in your countries for the proper procedure.
WARNING
A battery may constitute a risk of an electric shock and high short-circuit current.
When working on batteries, the prescriptions indicated in chapter 2 are to be adhered to.
It is important to dismantle the various parts the battery cabinet consists of. For these operations,
Personal Protective Equipment must be worn.
Sub-divide the components separating the metal from the plastic, from the copper and so on ac-
cording to the type of selective waste disposal in the country where the equipment is dismantled.
If the dismantled components must be stored before being properly disposed, be careful to keep
them in a safe place protected from atmospheric agents to avoid soil and groundwater contamination.
For the disposal of electronic waste it is necessary to refer to the industry standards.
