To restore power to the load devices after the REPO feature is activated, press the On button after the AC 
source is reconnected to the UPS.  
  
  IM PORT ANT :
  Pressing and holding the On button without utility present normally initiates a 
battery start and the UPS assumes the load. However, if the On button is pressed and a REPO 
is detected, battery start is inhibited and the UPS is not able to assume the load. T he 
electronics module fan spins and the General Alarm LED and an audible alarm are active as 
long as the On button is held.  
  
To power down the entire network in the event of an emergency, the REPO ports of multiple UPS units 
can be connected to a single switch.

Precautions  
Save these instructions. This document contains important safety instructions that should be followed 
during installation, operation, and maintenance of the UPS and batteries.  
  
  WARNING:
  A risk of personal injury from electric shock and hazardous energy levels exists. 
The installation of options and routine maintenance and service of this product must be 
performed by individuals who are knowledgeable about the procedures, precautions, and 
hazards associated with AC power products.  
  
   
   
37 kg 
82 lb   This symbol indicates that the UPS exc
eeds the recommended weight for one 
individual to handle safely.  
WARNING:   To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, 
observe local occupational health and safety requirements and guidelines for manual 
material handling.  
  
   
   
45  kg 
100 lb   This symbol indicates that the ERM exceeds the recommended weight for one 
individual to handle safely.
 
WARNING:   To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, 
observe local occupational health and safety requirements and guide lines for manual 
material handling.  
  
   
  WARNING:
  To prevent personal injury from earth conductor leakage current:  
•   Do not operate the UPS while disconnected from the utility power source.  
•   Disconnect load devices before disconnecting the UPS from the utility power source.  
  
 
Preparing to install the hardware 
Before installing the hardware:  
1. Be sure the necessary tools and materials  (on page  12) are available.  
2. Select an installation site  ("Selecting a site " on page 13). 
3.  Prepare the equipment  (" Readying the equipment " on page 13) for installation in the r ack.  
Tools and materials  
The following tools are required for installation:  
• Phillips screwdriver 
• 10-mm hex -nut driver  
The following items are supplied with the rack:  
• Screws 
• Hex nuts  
• Cage nuts  
• Cage nut-fitting tool    
						

							 
Installation  13  
Selecting a site    
  WARNING:
  To prevent fire or electric shock, install the unit in a temperature-  and 
humidity -controlled indoor environment, free of conductive contaminants.  
  
When selecting a site, consider the following factors:  
• Elevated operating ambient temperature—If the equipment is installed in a closed or multi -unit rack 
assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment might be greater than room 
ambient temperature. Install the equipment in an environment compatible with the operating 
temperature  ("Environmental specifications " on page 62). 
• Reduced air flow —In the rack, the rate of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment must 
not be compromised.  
• Circuit overloading—Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply 
circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply 
wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing 
this concern.  
• Reliable earthing —Reliable earthing of rack -mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular 
attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit, 
such as the use of power strips.  
• Electrical requirements—All models require a dedicated (unshared) branch circuit, suitably rated for 
the  specific UPS as stated in "Input specifications" .  
 
Readying the equipment 
1. Check the battery recharge date specified on the label that is affixed to the shipping carton.    
  IM PORT ANT :
  Do not use the battery if the recharge date has passed. If the date on  the 
battery recharge date label has passed without the battery being recharged, contact a Hewlett 
Packard Enterprise authorized service representative for directions.  
  
2.  Transport the packaged unit to its installation location.  
3. Unpack the equipment near the rack where the unit will be assembled.    
  CAUTION:
  Always plan the rack installation so that the heaviest item is on the bottom of the 
rack. Install the heaviest item first, and continue to populate the rack from the bottom to the top. 
   
 
Installing  the mounting rails    
  WARNING:
  To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, be sure that:  
•   The leveling feet are extended to the floor.  
•   The full weight of the rack rests on the leveling feet.  
•   The stabilizing feet are attached to the rack if it is a single- rack installation.  
•   The racks are coupled together in multiple- rack installations.  
•   Only one component is extended at a time. A rack may become unstable if more than one 
component is extended for any reason.  
   
If preparing the rails for integrated shipping, follow the same instructions in " Installing the UPS in a rack 
(on page 16)" or "Installing the UPS as a tower  (on page 31 )." 
Mounting hardware for square-  and round- holed racks is included in  the UPS kit.  
						

							 
Installation  14  
To install the mounting rails:  
1. Loosen the wing nuts or hex nuts, and then extend the brackets to the appropriate length.  
 
2.  Insert screws through the rack into the mounting rail and the front of each mounting bracket.  
  
						

							 
Installation  15  
3.
 
Install cage nuts or clip nuts into the rear of the rack.  
 
4. Insert screws through the mounting rail into the cage nuts or clip nuts.  
  
						

							 
Installation  16  
5.
 
Tighten the wing nuts or hex nuts.  
 
6. Install the rear stabilization bracket using wing nuts. Wait until the unit is installed and the brackets  
are adjusted before tightening the nuts.  
 
 
Installing the UPS in a rack  
lBefore installing the unit, review and adhere to all warnings provided in " Precautions (on page 12)."    
  WARNING:
  A risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment exists. Uneven loading of 
equipment in the rack might cause the rack to become unstable. Install the heavier  
components first, and then continue to populate the rack from the bottom to the top.  
  
1.  Install the mounting rails.

2.
 
Install the mounting ears on the chassis using the screws provided.  
 
3. With one person on each side, lift the chassis to rail level and slide the chassis on the mounting rails.  
4. Attach the chassis to the rack using the supplied screws.  
 
 
Connecting the battery leads    
  WARNING:
  To prevent personal injury from electric shock or damage to the equipment,
