operation & installation
This Line Interactive Rackmount UPS can protect your equipment from surges, spikes, blackouts, brownouts and
line noise. When AC power is present and the UPS is on, it continues to charge the battery and provide the
power to the equipment directly from the AC line. The battery can provide stable power to complete your
work, save your data and safely shut down your system when the utility power has failed. The UPS is simple
to operate and install. Following are the steps to connect equipment to the UPS.
Conditions
Do not operate the UPS in an environment where the ambient temperature is outside the limits given in the
Specifications section of this manual.
Connection to the Utility Power
Plug the UPS into an electrical outlet. Do not plug it into an outlet that already uses a heavy electric load
(e.g., an air conditioner, refrigerator or laser printer). Check the product specications at the back of this
manual for temperature conditions. The Rackmount UPS is furnished with a six-foot line cord terminated
with a standard NEMA 5-15P three-pronged plug. The UPS must be plugged into a two-pole, three-wire
grounding receptacle. If an extension cord must be used, use a three-wire grounding type rated at least
20 Amps. Plug the UPS into a two-pole, three-wire grounded receptacle only. Avoid using extension
cords and adapter plugs.
