Used to advise the user to carefully read and observe this unit though it may not cause damage.
This manual contains important instructions that should be followed during installation and operation of
this Emerson APM 300 integrated UPS system (UPS for short).
Read this manual thoroughly before installing, servicing and using the UPS.
The UPS must be commissioned and serviced by trained engineers approved and qualified by the
manufacturer or its agent. Failure to do so could result in personnel safety risk, equipment malfunction
and invalidation of warranty.
The UPS has been designed for commercial and industrial use only, and is not for use in any life support
application.
Warning
This is a Class C3 UPS product for commercial and industrial application in the second environment. Installation
restrictions or additional measures may be needed to prevent distrubances.

Conformity and standards
The UPS complies with CE 2006/95/EC&93/68/EEC (low voltage safety) and 2004/108/EC, with Australia and New
Zealand EMC Framework (C-Tick), and with the following product standards for UPS:
IEC62040-1 general and safety requirements for UPS

IEC62040-2 EMC, class C3

IEC62040-3 performance requirements and test methods

Continued compliance requires installation in accordance with these instructions and the use of manufacturer
approved accessories only.

Multiple power sources
This UPS system receives power from more than one source . Disconnection of all AC sources and the DC source is
required before servicing.
This UPS has several circuits that are energized with high DC as well as AC voltages. Check for voltage with both AC
and DC voltmeters before working within the UPS.
Warning: high leakage current
Earth connection is essential before connecting the input supply (including the AC mains and battery). The UPS
must be earthed in accordance with local electrical codes.
Earth leakage current exceeds 3.5mA and is less than 3000mA.
Transient and steady state earth leakage currents, which may occur when the equipment is started, should be
taken into account when selecting instantaneous RCCB or RCD devices.
RCCBs must be selected insensitive to DC unidirectional pulses (Class A) and transient current pulses.
Also note that the earth leakage currents of the load will be carried by this RCCB or RCD.

Warning: backfeeding protection
This UPS is fitted with a contact closure signal for use with an external automatic disconnect device (supplied by
others) to protect against backfeeding dangerous voltage into the input terminal through the bypass static switch
circuit. A label must be added at the external power disconnect device to warn service personnel that the circuit is
connected to the UPS. The text of the label has the following meaning: Risk of voltage backfeed! Isolate the UPS,
then check for hazardous voltage between all terminals including the protective earth before working on this
circuit.

User-serviceable parts
All equipment maintenance and servicing procedures involving internal access requires the use of a tool and
should be carried out only by trained professionals. There are no user-serviceable parts behind covers requiring a
tool/special key for removal.

Battery voltage exceeds 400Vdc
All physical battery maintenance and servicing requires the use of a tool or a key and should be carried out only by
trained personnel.
Take special care when working with the batteries. When connected together, the battery terminal voltage will
exceed 400Vdc and is potentially lethal.
Battery manufacturers supply details of the necessary precautions to be observed when working on, or in the
vicinity of, a large bank of battery cells. These precautions should be followed implicitly at all times. Attention
should be paid to the recommendations concerning local environmental conditions and the provision of protective
clothing, first aid and fire-fighting facilities.

Warning
The area around the cover of the monitoring board is a static sensitive area, take anti-static measures when
accessing this area.

Warning
When selecting the UPS system pre-stage distribution protection equipment, ensure that it complies with the
local electric regulations.
The specified upstream breakers are required to obtain the conditional short-circuit current rating, Icc at 10kA
symmetrical rms. The specified upstream breakers should comply with an IEC 60947 series standard.
