SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This manual contains important safety instructions that should be followed
during the installation and maintenance of the UPS and its batteries. Please
read this manual thoroughly before attempting to install or operate this UPS.
This equipment can be installed and operated by individuals without previous
training.
-
PowerSure Personal models are available for 115VAC and 230VAC supply voltages and loads. Please verify that this model matches your AC mains/ load voltage requirements.
-
This equipment is designed for Commercial/Industrial use only. Liebert Corporation neither recommends nor knowingly sells this product for use in critical life support applications.
-
The PowerSure Personal 230VAC models are not supplied with an input power lead for connection to the mains supply. Use the input mains power lead from your data processing equipment to connect the UPS to the mains supply. The UPS is supplied with two output power leads with moulded connectors to connect from the UPS output to your equipment. Additional input/output leads can be obtained from your dealer.
Also provided is a Liebert special interconnection cable for connection to DB9 connector on the rear of the UPS for use with Liebert’s SiteNet MultiLink® software (see user manual for details) DO NOT USE FOR OTHER APPLICATIONS. Store in safe place if not required at this time. -
This UPS must be earthed at all times during operation. Connect only to a mains supply socket outlet with an earth connection. A means of disconnection of the mains supply should be within 2 metres of the UPS.
-
WARNING: Output receptacles on the UPS are electrically live if the UPS is switched ON, even if the UPS is not plugged in to a mains supply. The On/Off button on the UPS does not electrically isolate the internal parts. To isolate the UPS, switch OFF the UPS first, then unplug it from the mains.
ƒ To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove the cover, as it has no userserviceable parts inside.
Some components are live, even when AC power is disconnected. For service, contact a qualified technician.
ƒ To reduce the risk of fire, use the proper rating when replacing the fuse.
ƒ To prevent the risk of fire or electric shock, install the UPS in a temperature and humidity controlled room, free of conductive contaminants. -

it is recommended to plug in the UPS for at least 24 hours every four to six
months to ensure full recharge of the batteries.
Battery disposal – When the battery life is expended (see alarm indications),
dispose of the discarded batteries in accordance with local environmental
laws.
