Safety instructions
Follow the safety instructions to prevent injuries and damage to equipment or property.
Installation
- Never work on live equipment. Always switch off the power supply for the device before installation, troubleshooting, or maintenance. Protect the device against unintentional switching on.
- Prevent polarity reversal of the data and supply cables, as this may cause damage to the equipment.
- Observe the relevant accident prevention regulations for your machine (e.g. the BGV A 3, electrical systems and equipment).
- Observe the temperature limit values for operation. If the UPS is operated outside these temperature limits, it may overheat and electrolyte may leak out.
- The site for the UPS must be adequately ventilated. In the event of a fault, the UPS can release flammable gases that could cause an explosion.
- If you come into contact with electrolyte, rinse the affected body part with water immediately.
Firefighting
Extinguish the battery pack with dry powder, halon, or CO2.
- Do not extinguish with water.
- Disconnect the power supply.
- During firefighting, wear self-contained protective respiratory equipment and protective clothing.
- Air the room after you have extinguished the UPS.
