Important Safety Warnings - Tripp-Lite SmartOnline SU10K3/1X Manual De Operación

Important Safety Warnings

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. This manual contains important instructions and warnings that should be followed during the installation and
maintenance of all Tripp Lite SmartOnline 3-Phase UPS Systems and their batteries.
UPS Location Warnings
• Install your UPS indoors, away from heat, direct sunlight, dust, and excess moisture or other conductive contaminants.
• Install your UPS in a structurally sound area. Your UPS is extremely heavy; take care when moving and lifting the unit.
• Only operate your UPS at indoor temperatures between 32° F and 104° F (between 0° C and 40° C). For best results, keep indoor
temperatures between 62° F and 84° F (between 17° C and 29° C).
• Leave adequate space around all sides of the UPS for proper ventilation: 12 in. (30 cm.) clearance at the rear; 4 in. (10 cm.) at
sides and on top.
• Do not install the UPS near magnetic storage media, as this may result in data corruption.
UPS Connection Warnings
• The power supply for this unit must be three phase rated in accordance with the equipment nameplate. It also must be suitably
grounded according to all applicable local electrical wiring regulations.
Equipment Connection Warnings
• Do not use Tripp Lite UPS Systems in life support applications in which a malfunction or failure of a Tripp Lite UPS System could
cause failure or significantly alter the performance of a life support device.
• Connect your UPS's Grounding Terminal to a grounding electrode conductor.
• The UPS system contains its own energy source (battery). The output terminals may be live even when the UPS is not connected to
an AC supply.
Battery Warnings
• Your UPS does not require routine maintenance. Do not open your UPS for any reason. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
• The batteries in your battery module are recyclable. Refer to local codes for disposal requirements, or if in the USA call
1-800-SAV-LEAD (1-800-728-5323)for complete recycling information. CAUTION: Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire, as this
could cause the battery to explode.
• Because the batteries present a risk of electrical shock and burn from high short-circuit current, batteries should be changed only by
trained service personnel observing proper precautions. Consult your battery module manual before proceeding. Remove watches,
rings, and other metal objects. Use tools with insulated handles. Wear rubber gloves and boots. Do not lay tools or metal parts on top
of the batteries. Do not short or bridge the battery terminals with any object. Disconnect the charging source prior to connecting or
disconnecting battery terminals. Determine if the batteries are inadvertently grounded. If inadvertently grounded, remove the source
of the ground. Contact with any part of a grounded battery can result in electrical shock. The likelihood of such shock will be
reduced if such grounds are removed during installation and maintenance.
• Connect only Tripp Lite battery packs to your UPS's external battery connectors.
• Do not operate your UPS without batteries.
• Fuses should be replaced only by factory authorized personnel. Blown fuses should be replaced only with fuses of the same number
and type.
• Potentially lethal voltages exist within this unit as long as the battery supply is connected. Service and repair should be done only by
trained personnel. During any service work, the UPS should be turned off or put into manual bypass.
• During "hot-swap" battery replacement (when the UPS is on manual bypass and connected equipment is turned ON) your UPS will
be unable to provide battery backup in the event of a blackout.
• Do not connect or disconnect the battery modules while the UPS is operating from the battery supply or when the unit is not in
bypass mode.
