6. UPS maintenance
6.1 Equipment care
For the best preventive maintenance, keep the area around the equipment clean and dust free.
If the atmosphere is very dusty, clean the outside of the system with a vacuum cleaner.
For full battery life, keep the equipment at an ambient temperature of 25°C (77°F).
If the UPS requires any type of transportation, verify that the UPS is disconnected and turned off.
The batteries are rated for a 3-5 year service life. The length of service life varies, depending
on the frequency of usage and ambient temperature (life divided by 2 each 10°C above 25°C).
Batteries used beyond expected service life will often have severely reduced runtimes. Replace

reduced at low temperature (below 10°C).
6.2 Storing the equipment
If you store the equipment for a long period, recharge the battery every 6 months by connecting the UPS
to utility power. The internal batteries charge to 90% capacity in less than 3 hours.
However, Eaton recommends that the batteries charge for 48 hours after long-term storage.
Check the battery recharge date on the shipping carton label.
If the date has passed and the batteries were never recharged, do not use them. Contact your service
representative.
