Chapter 4 UPS System Installation

4.1 Preliminary Installation Information

WARNING

Installation should be performed only by qualified personnel.

Refer to the following while installing the UPS system:

Chapter 3 for cabinet dimensions, equipment weight, wiring and terminal data, and installation notes.

Do not tilt the cabinets more than ±10 during installation.

If perforated floor tiles are required for ventilation, place them in front of the UPS.

4.2 Unloading the UPS Cabinet from the Pallet

The UPS Cabinet is bolted to a wooden pallet supported by wood skids. To remove the pallet:

WARNING

The UPS cabinet is heavy (see Table 3-3). If unpacking and unloading instructions are not closely

followed, the cabinet may tip and cause serious injury.

CAUTION

Do not tilt cabinet more than 10° from vertical.

Lift the cabinets only with a forklift or damage may occur.

1. If not already accomplished, use a forklift or pallet jack to move the UPS cabinet to the installation area, or

as close as possible, before unloading from the pallet. Insert the forklift or pallet jack forks between the

supports on the bottom of the pallet (see Figure 3-3 for the UPS cabinet center of gravity measurements).

2. Remove four bolts securing the front shipping bracket to the cabinet and four bolts securing the bracket to

the pallet (see Figure 4-1). Remove the front shipping bracket. If installing the cabinet permanently, retain

the shipping bracket and securing hardware for later use.

3. Attach the ramp to the front of the pallet (see Figure 4-2):

a. Locate the ramp (top panel from wood container), ramp extension, and ramp brackets with M10 bolts.

b. Place the ramp against the front of the pallet.

c. Secure the ramp to pallet using the supplied ramp brackets and M10 bolts. Insert the lip on the

brackets into the slots at the top of the ramp. Use the existing holes in the pallet to secure the ramp

brackets.

d. Attach the ramp extension to the front of the ramp by inserting the tabs on the extension into the

slots at the bottom of the ramp.

4. If the leveling feet are not fully retracted, turn the leveling feet until they are retracted.

NOTE For the following steps, verify that the forklift or pallet jack is rated to handle the

weight of the cabinet (see Table 3-3 for cabinet weight)
