Important Safety Instructions

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This manual contains 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, conductive contaminants, dust or direct
sunlight.
• For best performance, keep the indoor temperature between 32º F and 104º F (0º C and 40º C).
• Leave adequate space around all sides of the UPS for proper ventilation.
• Do not install the UPS near magnetic storage media, as this may result in data corruption.
• Do not mount unit with its front or rear panel facing down (at any angle). Mounting in this manner
will seriously inhibit the unit's internal cooling, eventually causing product damage not covered under
warranty.
UPS Connection Warnings
• Connect your UPS directly to a properly grounded AC power outlet. Do not plug the UPS into itself;
this will damage the UPS.
• Do not modify the UPS's plug, and do not use an adapter that would eliminate the UPS's ground
connection.
• Do not use extension cords to connect the UPS to an AC outlet.
• If the UPS receives power from a motor-powered AC generator, the generator must provide clean,
filtered, computer-grade output.
Equipment Connection Warnings
• Use of this equipment in life support applications where failure of this equipment can reasonably be
expected to cause the failure of the life support equipment or to significantly affect its safety or
effectiveness is not recommended. Do not use this equipment in the presence of a flammable
anesthetic mixture with air, oxygen or nitrous oxide.
• Do not connect surge suppressors or extension cords to the output of your UPS. This might overload
the UPS and may affect the surge suppressor and UPS warranties.
Battery Warnings
• Your UPS does not require routine maintenance. Do not open your UPS for any reason except battery
replacement. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
• Batteries can present a risk of electrical shock and burn from high short-circuit current. Observe
proper precautions. Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire. Do not open the UPS or batteries. Do not
short or bridge the battery terminals with any object. Unplug and turn off the UPS before performing
battery replacement. Use tools with insulated handles. There are no user-serviceable parts inside the
UPS. Battery replacement should be performed only by authorized service personnel using the same
number and type of batteries (Sealed Lead-Acid). The batteries are recyclable. Refer to your local
codes for disposal requirements or visit www.tripplite.com/UPSbatteryrecycling for recycling
information. Tripp Lite offers a complete line of UPS System Replacement Battery Cartridges
(R.B.C.).Visit Tripp Lite on the Web at www.tripplite.com/support/battery/index.cfm to locate the
specific replacement battery for your UPS.
• If your UPS model is equipped with an external battery connector, only connect Tripp Lite battery
packs of the appropriate type and correct voltage. Do not connect or disconnect external batteries
while the UPS is operating from battery.
