Battery Warnings
• The battery cabinet does not require routine maintenance by the user. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Only qualified,
knowledgeable service personnel familiar with all required precautions should open the access panels for any reason. Keep
unauthorized personnel away from batteries.
• The battery cabinet contains valve-regulated recombinant lead-acid (VRLA) batteries. Do not attempt to add water to these batteries or
sample the electrolyte specific gravity.
• Valve-regulated recombinant lead-acid (VRLA) batteries can contain an explosive mixture of hydrogen gas. DO NOT SMOKE when near
batteries. DO NOT cause flames or sparks near batteries. Discharge static electricity from body before touching batteries. DO NOT open
or mutilate batteries—released electrolyte is harmful to the skin and eyes and may be toxic. DO NOT dispose of batteries in a fire—
they may explode.
• Batteries present a risk of electrical shock and burns from high short-circuit current. Battery connection or replacement should be
performed only by qualified service personnel, observing proper precautions. Use tools with insulated handles. Remove watches,
rings or other metal objects. Wear rubber gloves and boots. Do not short or bridge the battery terminals with any object.
Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries. Use tools with insulated handles. There are no user-serviceable parts inside the
battery cabinet. Battery replacement should be performed only by authorized service personnel using the same number and type of
batteries (Sealed Lead-Acid). The batteries are recyclable. Refer to your local codes for disposal requirements or visit
http://www.tripplite.com/support/recycling-program for recycling information. Tripp Lite offers a complete line of UPS System
Replacement Battery Cartridges (R.B.C.). Visit Tripp Lite on the Web at http://www.tripplite.com/products/battery-finder/ to locate
the specific replacement battery for your UPS.
• Replace batteries with equivalent batteries (same number and type) available from Tripp Lite.
• Fuse replacement should only be performed by qualified service personnel. Replace with only the same type and rating: 30A, 600V.
• The batteries are recyclable. Refer to local codes for disposal requirements. Do not dispose of batteries except through approved
channels in accordance with all applicable local, state and national regulations.
• Do not connect or disconnect batteries when the UPS system is operating from the battery supply or when the unit is not in bypass
mode. Disconnect the charging source prior to connection or disconnecting battery terminals.
• If the charging source remains off for an extended period of time, it should be turned on periodically to allow the batteries to recharge.
The charging source should be turned on and the batteries should be recharged at least one uninterrupted 24-hour period every
3 months. Failure to recharge the batteries periodically may cause permanent battery damage.
• Allow batteries to charge uninterrupted for 24 hours after installation.
