Internal battery connection

In order to safely transport the UPS, the battery cables inside the UPS are disconnected. Before
installing the UPS, follow the instructions below to connect the battery.
Step 1 Step 2 Step 3

Remove the front panel.

Connect the battery plugs.

Mount the front panel.

Connecting external batteries
Connect one end of the battery cable to the appropriate socket on the UPS rear panel, the other end to the socket located on the battery module. For more battery modules, the remaining connections are made between the supplied battery modules as shown in the figure below.
Warning! The maximum number of battery modules to connect is 4.
When attaching additional battery modules, the UPS must be checked and possibly adjusted for the connected capacity of the battery.

Power connection
Connect the power supply to an electrical outlet that is equipped with a protective conductor with a conductor supplied by the manufacturer. The power socket to which the power supply is connected should be protected with a surge suppressor. Recommended cross-section of the 2.5 mm2 power cord. It is recommended to use a separate socket to power the UPS, protected by its own switch. The following is the current value for correct selection of UPS power protection.

Load connection
The UPS has been equipped with standard IEC 320 sockets. The IEC 320 C13 – C14 (10A) or IEC 320 C19-C20 (16A) cables are required to connect the receivers. 1 – 3kVA UPSs are equipped with 8 IEC 320 – C13 (10A) sockets. In addition, the 3kVA power supply unit has a 16A socket (IEC 320-C19).
The UPS has two groups of output sockets: programmable and fixed sockets.
It is recommended to connect critical receivers to group 2 sockets, and smaller receivers to group 1 sockets.
In the event of a power failure, you can extend the operating time of critical receivers (connected to Group 2 sockets) on the battery by reducing the running time of devices connected to the programmable sockets (group 1). Programmable time for devices connected to the programmable sockets is available from the UPS configuration menu.

Do not connect the UPS output to devices that may cause overload, such as laser printers, electric stoves, heaters, etc.
The cables should be connected and placed in such a way that no one can accidentally disconnect them.

Connection of remote REPO switch
The UPS is equipped with an EPO port for the connection of the REPO remote switch (Remote Emergency Power Off).
The standard EPO port is configured as NC (normal close), EPO activation occurs by disconnecting the connection between pin 1 and pin 2 (removing the jumper).
There is possibility to change EPO for NO (normal open) from Menu on LCD panel Changing the configuration to NO causes the jumper between pin 1 and pin 2 to be removed.
