Selecting Installation Site

To minimize the possibility of damage to the battery bank and extend the life of the batteries, follow the instructions below:
1. Maintain at least 20 cm (8 inches) clearance between the unit's rear panel and a wall (or other obstructions).
2. Do not block airflow to the unit's ventilation openings.
3. Ensure the installation site environmental conditions are in accordance with the unit's working specifications to avoid overheating and/
or excessive moisture.
4. Do not place the unit in a dusty or corrosive environment or near any flammable objects.
5. This unit is not designed for outdoor use.
Connecting a UPS to the Battery Pack
The external battery pack will increase the battery runtime. As a result, recharge time will also increase. Follow the installation diagram
below to connect a UPS to a battery pack using the included cable. Make sure that cables are fully inserted into their connectors. Small
sparks may result during battery connection; this is normal. Be sure to connect the protective earth wire ring terminals to the earth
bonding screw on each cabinet.
Do not connect or disconnect battery packs when the UPS is running on battery power.
Note: The battery pack's DC connectors are connected together. Connecting cables may be plugged into either connector.
