PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The APC™ by Schneider Electric Smart-UPS™ RT is a high performance, uninterruptible power supply (UPS) that provides protection for electronic equipment from utility power blackouts, brownouts, sags, and surges. The UPS filters small utility line  fluctuations and isolates electronic equipment from large disturbances by internally disconnecting from utility line power. The UPS provides continuous power from the internal battery until utility power returns to safe levels or the battery is fully discharged.

SAFETY AND GENERAL INFORMATION

INSPECT THE PACKAGE CONTENTS UPON RECEIPT. NOTIFY THE CARRIER AND DEALER IF THERE IS ANY DAMAGE.
READ THE SAFETY INFORMATION IN THIS MANUAL BEFORE INSTALLING THE UPS.

  • 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 unit is intended for indoor use only.

  • Do not operate this unit in direct sunlight, in contact with fluids, or where there is excessive dust or humidity.

  • Be sure the air vents on the unit are not blocked. Allow adequate space for proper ventilation.

  • Connect the UPS power cable directly to a wall outlet. Do not use surge protectors or extension cords.

  • 230 V models only: In order to maintain compliance with the EMC directive for products sold in Europe, output cords attached to the UPS must not exceed 10 meters in length.

  • Leakage current for a pluggable Type A UPS may exceed 3.5 mA when a separate ground terminal is used.

  • 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 UPS. 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 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.

  • The attachment plug receptacles near the unit or subsystem must all be of a grounding type, and the grounding conductors serving these receptacles must be connected to earth ground at the service equipment.

  • The battery typically lasts for two to five years. Environmental factors impact battery life. Elevated ambient temperatures, poor quality utility power, and frequent short duration discharges will shorten battery life.

  • The equipment is heavy. Always practice safe lifting techniques adequate for the weight of the equipment.

  • The batteries are heavy. Remove the batteries before installing the UPS and XLBP in a rack.

  • Always install XLBPs at the bottom in rack-mount or stack configurations. The UPS must be installed above the XLBPs.

  • Always install peripheral equipment above the UPS in rack-mount or stack configurations.

  • The UPS will recognize as many as 10 external battery packs connected to the UPS. However there is no limit to the number of XLBPs that can be used with the UPS.

  • 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.

  • Always recycle used batteries.

  • Recycle the package materials or save them for reuse.
