The following special messages may appear throughout this manual or on the equipment to warn of potential hazards or to call attention to information that clarifies or simplifies a procedure.
The addition of symbol to either a “Danger” or “Warning” safety label indicates that an electrical hazard exists which will result in personal injury if the instructions are not followed.
This is the safety alert symbol. It is used to alert you to potential personal injury hazards. Obey all safety messages that follow this symbol to avoid possible injury or death.

DANGER indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.

WARNING indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.

CAUTION indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in minor or moderate injury.

NOTICE is used to address practices not related to physical injury.

Unpacking Instruction

APC SRV6-10KTF Uninterruptible Power Supply - fig 1

Remove the screws securing the product to the transport bracket. Remove the nuts securing the transport bracket to the pallet.
Replace the screws securing the product to the transportation bracket (removed in the previous step)with the screws supplied in the kit and tighten them.
To prevent damage to the product and injury to personnel, use the transport bracket as ramp for unloading the product from the pallet.
Be sure to securely position the transport brackets to the pallet before unloading the product.

Safety Information

  • Adhere to all national and local electrical codes.
  • All wiring must be performed by a qualified electrician.
  • Changes and modifications to this unit not expressly approved by APC could void the warranty.
  • This transformer is intended for indoor use only.
  • Do not operate this transformer in direct sunlight, in contact with fluids, or where there is excessive dust or humidity.
  • Be sure the air vents on the transformer are not blocked. Allow adequate space for proper ventilation.
  • The equipment is heavy. Always practice safe lifting techniques adequate for the weight of the equipment.
  • Always install the transformer the bottom of the rack.
  • Always lock the wheels in SRV6KTF/SRV10KTF.
  • Additional safety information can be found in the Safety Guide supplied with this unit.

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

  • Be sure to de-energize the transformer before performing maintenance.
  • Be sure that the protective covers or panels are installed when the transformer is in operation.
  • Do not insert any object through the ventilation grills when the transformer is in operation..
    Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious injury.

Electrical safety

  • The protective earth conductor for the transformer carries the leakage current from the load devices (computer equipment). An insulated ground conductor is to be installed as part of the branch circuit that supplies the transformer. The conductor must have the same size and insulation material as the grounded and ungrounded branch circuit supply conductors. The conductor will typically be green and with or without a yellow stripe.
  • The UPS input ground conductor must be properly bonded to protective earth at the service panel.
  • If the UPS input power is supplied by a separately derived system, the ground conductor must be properly bonded at the supply transformer or motor generator set.
  • Be sure that all the covers and panels are installed before operating the transformer.
  • Do not insert any metal object through the ventilation openings.
  • Be sure to turn off the input to the transformer and check the voltage at the output terminals is zero before attempting to service or maintain the transformer.

Hardwire Safety

  • Verify that all branch circuit (mains) and low voltage (control) circuits are de-energized, and locked out before installing cables or making connections, whether in the junction box or to the transformer.
  • Wiring by a qualified electrician is required.
  • Adhere to national and local codes.
  • Select wire size and connectors according to national and local codes.
  • All openings allowing access to UPS and transformer hardwiring terminals must be covered. Failure to do so may result in personal injury or equipment damage.

General information

  • The model and serial numbers are located on a small, rear panel label. For some models, an additional label is located on the chassis under the front bezel.
  • Recycle the package materials or save them for reuse.
