Site Preparation Checklist System components. Have you – determined minimum battery run time requirement based on load (kW and kVA) and selected the proper number of APC XR Enclosures (SUVTBXR2B6S, SUVTXR2B6S and SUVTBXR6B6S, SUVTXR6B6S) and Battery Unit (SYBT1). Always install a whole Battery Module (4 Battery Units) at a time. considered Service Program or Extended Warranty plan? Site Preparation.
Mechanical assembly Stabilizing Brackets Always install the Stabilizing Brackets on the 13.85 in/352 mm Enclosure (shipped with the UPS) to enhance the stability of the Enclosure. Attach the Stabilizing Bracket to the UPS Enclosure re-using the screws used to secure the UPS to the pallet during shipment.
Leveling Feet Verify that the installation has been electrically wired before setting the leveling feet. Note Setting the leveling feet Set the leveling feet to ensure the UPS is horizontal when it is in its final operating position. Use a 13/ 14-mm wrench (shipped with UPS) to adjust all 4 leveling feet from front to back, and left to right, until the pads make solid contact with the floor. Use a bubble level to check the Enclosure is horizontal.
Floor Anchoring Note If floor anchoring is required in your area, read this section. If not, proceed to Operating Environment. However, if you install a 13.85 in/352 mm Enclosure, it must always be equipped with the Stabilizing Bracket for enhanced stability (not necessary to bolt the Stabilizing Bracket to the floor in non-seismic areas).
Mechanical assembly – Floor Anchoring Recommended minimum number of floor bolts per Enclosure: 4 (1 in each corner). Recommended floor bolt size: 5/16(3/8) in/8 mm. Note Floor anchoring of stand-alone systems In seismic areas, it is recommended that the installation be bolted to the floor, and that the batteries be secured in the Enclosure by the Battery Securing Brackets. For floor anchoring, use the 2 transport brackets that were used to secure the UPS to the pallet during transport.
