Product Handling Guidelines
Safety and General Information
Inspect the package contents upon receipt. Notify the carrier and dealer if there is any damages.
Read the Safety Guide before installing the UPS.
- This UPS is for indoor use
- Do not operate this UPS in direct sunlight, in contact with fluids, or where there is excessive dust or high
- Do not operate the UPS near open windows or
- Be sure the air vents on the UPS are not Allow adequate space for proper ventilation.
Note: Allow a minimum of 20 cm clearance on all four sides of the UPS.
- Environmental factors impact battery Elevated ambient temperatures, poor quality utility power, and frequent discharges will shorten battery life. Follow the battery manufacturer recommendations.
Electrical Safety
- Connects to UPS power cable to a wall Do not use surge protectors or extension cords.
- When grounding cannot be verified, disconnect the equipment from the utility power outlet before installing or connecting to other Reconnect the power cord only after all connections are made.
- Connection to the branch circuit (mains) must be performed by a qualified
- The protective earth conductor for the UPS 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 The conductor must have the same size and insulation material as the grounded and ungrounded branch circuit supply conductors. The conductor will be green and with or without a yellow stripe.
- The grounding conductor is to be grounded to earth at the service equipment, or if supplied by a separately derived system, at the supply transformer or motor generator
- The length of output cable should not exceed
Battery Safety
CAUTION
RISK OF HYDROGEN SULPHIDE GAS AND EXCESSIVE SMOKE
• Replace the battery at least every 5 years or at the end of its service life, whichever is earlier.
• Replace the battery immediately when the UPS indicates battery replacement is necessary.
• Replace batteries with the same number and type of batteries as originally installed in the equipment.
• Replace the battery immediately when the UPS indicates a battery over- temperature condition, or when there is evidence of electrolyte leakage. Power off the UPS, unplug it from the AC input, and disconnect the batteries. Do not operate the UPS until the batteries have been replaced.
• *Replace all battery modules (including the modules in External Battery Packs) which are older than one year, when installing additional battery packs or replacing the battery module(s).
Failure to follow these instructions can result in minor or moderate injury and equipment damage.
-
Contact APC by Schneider Electric Worldwide Customer Support to determine the age of the installed battery modules.
- Servicing of user replaceable batteries should be performed or supervised by personnel knowledgeable about batteries and required precautions. Keep unauthorized personnel away from batteries. In this case, batteries is not user
- APC by Schneider Electric uses Maintenance-Free sealed Lead Acid batteries. Under normal use and handling, there is no contact with the internal components of the Over charging, over heating or other misuse of batteries can result in a discharge of battery electrolyte.
- CAUTION: Do not dispose of batteries in a The batteries may explode.
- CAUTION: Do not open or mutilate Released material is harmful to the skin and eyes. It may be toxic.
- CAUTION: A battery can present a risk of electrical shock and high short-circuit current. The following precautions should be observed when working on batteries:
- Disconnect the charging source prior to connecting or disconnecting battery
- Do not wear any metal objects including watches and rings.
- Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of
- Use tools with insulated handles.
Wear rubber gloves and
– Determine if battery is either intentionally or inadvertently grounded.
Contact with any part of a grounded battery can result in electric shock and
burns by high short-circuit current. The risk of such hazards can be reduced
if grounds are removed during installation and maintenance by a skilled
person.
Failed batteries can reach temperatures that exceed the burn thresholds for
touchable surfaces
Radio Frequency Warning
This is a category C2 UPS product as per IEC 62040-2. In a residential environment, this product may cause radio interference, in which case the user may be required to take additional measures.
Product Description
The APC by Schneider Electric Easy UPS is a high performance, uninterruptible
power supply (UPS). The UPS helps to provide protection for electronic
equipment from utility power blackouts, brownouts, sags, and surges and small
utility fluctuations and large disturbances. The UPS also provides battery
backup power for connected equipment until utility power returns to normal
levels or the batteries are fully discharged.

ensure the unit is receiving input power.
If display is on, navigate and check the input voltage and frequency.
UPS, when connected to battery, is not supplying power to the connected
equipment
The UPS is not turned on.| If the UPS has shutdown (the display is not on),
follow the procedure “Cold start the UPS” on page 9.
The battery is not connected.| Connect battery to the UPS. See “Start Up” on
page 9 in this manual.
Low battery cut off. UPS may have discharged the battery due to utility power
outage andturned the output off due to low battery condition.| Wait for the
utility power to return and charge the battery. To turn on the output power
after utility power returns, press POWER ON/OFF button.
UPS emits an audible beeping sound at long intervals
The UPS is operating normally when running on battery.| UPS has detected an
error. See “Alarms and Notifications” on page 12 in this manual.
Alarm LED is illuminated. The UPS displays an alarm message and emits a
constant beeping sound
The UPS has detected an error.| See “Alarms and Notifications” on page 12 in
this manual.
No audible sounds from UPS even when the Alert LED is illuminated.
Audible alarm is disabled.| Change the UPS configuration to enable audible
alarms.
UPS is not providing expected backup time.
The UPS battery is discharged due to a recent power outage.| The batteries
require recharging after extended outages. Batteries can wear faster when put
into service without proper recharging or when operated at elevated
temperatures.
The battery is near the end of its service life.| If the battery is near the
end of its service life, consider replacing the battery, even if the replace
battery indicator is not illuminated. See “Start Up” on page 9 in this manual.
Problem and/or Possible Cause| Solution
---|---
UPS is not turning off
POWER OFF button not pressed properly| Press and hold the POWER ON/OFF button
until the beep is heard to power off the UPS.

UPS is in bypass mode even after over temperature alarm is cleared.| Reduce
the connected load to <90% to bring the UPS to online mode.
The UPS has experienced an overload condition and transferred to bypass.|
Connected equipment exceeds the “maximum load” as defined in specifications on
the APC by Schneider Electric Website, www.apc.com.
The alarms remain on until the overload condition is corrected. Disconnect nonessential equipment from the UPS to eliminate the overload condition.
The UPS continues to supply power as long as it is in bypass mode and the circuit breaker does not trip. The UPS will not provide battery power in the event of a utility
voltage interruption.
UPS detected an error and transferred to bypass.| See “Alarms and Notifications” on page 12 in this manual.
