4 Mechanical installation The UPS and accessories are delivered on a specifically designed pallet that is easy to move with a forklift or a pallet jack. Keep the UPS always in upright position and do not drop the equipment. Do not stack the pallets. 4.1 Delivery check The UPS is delivered with the following items: 1. Winpower disc 2.RS-232 serial cable 3.User Guide 4.Key 5.Battery kit(wires & trays)(only for models without batteries) 4.
EN Check the information on the type designation label of the equipment to verify that the unit is of the correct type. The type designation label includes ratings, a CE marking, a type code, a part number and a serial number. The serial number is important when making inquiries. It allows individual recognition of the equipment.
4.3 Planning before installation The equipment must be installed in upright position. The equipment requires space to front and back to enable cooling airflow. Service and maintenance require more than 40cm clearance on right hand side. All cooling air enters at front and exits at unit rear. The required minimum clearance from unit rear to an obstruction is 50cm. Because the service and user access is in the front there should be reserved enough space (min 60cm). Preparation for installation. 1.
4.4 Cabinet installation The required distance for UPS units should allow for service access. The same applies to the battery cabinet(s) that should be installed next to the UPS cabinet(s). EN Caution! UPS cabinet(s) can fall over if the installation brake pads are not used. Both rear and front pads must be used to secure the UPS cabinet to the floor. Use a 19mm wrench in clockwise direction to screw the brake pad down to the ground, keeping the machine from moving. 4.
