IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. This manual contains important instructions
that should be followed during installation and maintenance of the UPS and batteries.
The Evolution models that are covered in this manual are intended for installation in an environment
within 0 to 40°C, free of conductive contaminant.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commer-
cial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance
with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area
is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.

◗IEC 61000-4-8 (radiated magnetic field): level 4
Safety of Persons
◗
The system has its own power source (the battery). Consequently, the power outlets may be energized even if the systems is disconnected
from the AC power source.
◗
Dangerous voltage levels are present within the system. It should be opened exclusively by qualified service personnel.
◗
The system must be properly grounded.
◗
The battery supplied with the system contains small amounts of toxic materials. To avoid accidents, the directives listed below must be observed:
-Never burn the battery (risk of explosion).
-Do not attempt to open the battery (the electrolyte is dangerous for the eyes and skin).
-Comply with all applicable regulations for the disposal of the battery.
-Batteries constitute a danger (electrical shock, burns). The short-circuit current may be very high. Precautions must be taken for all handling:
remove watches, rings, bracelets and any other metal objects, use tools with insulated handles.
-Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries.
Product Safety
◗
The UPS connection instructions and operation described in the manual must be followed in the indicated order.
◗
A protection circuit breaker must be installed upstream and be easily accessible. The system can be disconnected from the AC power source
by opening this circuit breaker.
◗
Check that the indications on the rating plate correspond to your AC powered system and to the actual electrical consumption of all the
equipment to be connected to the system.
◗
Never install the system near liquids or in an excessively damp environment.
◗
Never let a foreign body penetrate inside the system.
◗
Never block the ventilation grates of the system.
◗
Never expose the system to direct sunlight or source of heat.
◗
If the system must be stored prior to installation, storage must be in a dry place.
◗
The admissible storage temperature range is -20ºC to +50ºC.
Special Precautions
◗
All handling operations will require at least two people (unpacking, installation in rack system).
◗
Before and after the installation, if the UPS remains de-energized for a long period, the UPS must be energized for a period of 24 hours, at least
once every 6 months (for a normal storage temperature less than 25°C). This charges the battery, thus avoiding possible irreversible damage.
◗
During the replacement of the Battery Module, it is imperative to use the same type and number of element as the original Battery Module provided
with the UPS to maintain an identical level of performance and safety. In case of doubt, don’t hesitate to contact your MGE Office Protection
Systems representative.
Environment
◗This product has been designed to respect the environment:
It does not contain any Chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) or Hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC).
◗UPS recycling at the end of service life:
MGE Office Protection Systems undertakes to recycle, by certified companies and in compliance with all applicable
regulations, all UPS products recovered at the end of their service life (contact your MGE Office Protection Systems
branch office).
◗Packing: UPS packing materials must be recycled in compliance with all applicable regulations.
WARNING: This product contains lead-acid batteries. Lead is a dangerous substance for the environment if it is not
properly recycled by specialized companies.
