Failure to observe these warnings may result in serious injury, death or damage to the equipment.

• Do not attempt to install the external battery packs. A qualified electrician should perform the installation of the external battery packs.

Practices

APC Battery Solution

See the APC Web site www.apc.com, or contact an APC dealer for information regarding the APC external battery pack.

• Always wear: Goggles or face shields Acid-resistant, insulated gloves Protective aprons Protective overshoes or rubber boots

• Always Use: Insulated tools Rubber mats to cover batteries during servicing Rubber mats or rubber stands on the floor Adequate lifting devices

• Remove: watches, rings, and other metal objects from your body

Precautions

• Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of battery packs.

• Lead-acid batteries contain hazardous, toxic materials. Do not open, alter or mutilate battery packs. Internal materials may be harmful to the skin and eyes. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. There is danger of explosion.

Emergency Power Off

The Emergency Power Off (EPO) option is a safety feature that will immediately shut off power to all connected equipment. When the EPO button is pushed, all connected equipment will immediately turn off and will not switch to battery power.

Wiring must be performed by a qualified electrician. Adhere to all national and local electrical codes when wiring the EPO.

The switch should be connected in a normally open switch contact. External voltage is not required; the switch is driven by 24 V internal supply. In closed condition, 4 mA of current are drawn.

The EPO switch is internally powered by the UPS for use with non-powered switch circuit breakers.

The EPO circuit is considered a Class 2 circuit, (UL, CSA standards) and a SELV circuit (IEC standard).

EPO connector

• Strip insulation from one end of each wire to be used located on the UPS rear panel

for connecting EPO.

• Insert screwdriver into the slot above terminal to be wired. Insert stripped wire into terminal. Remove screwdriver to secure wire in terminal. Repeat for each terminal.

Use only approved components when configuring the external EPO.

L N PE L N PE

UPS

Both Class 2 and SELV circuits must be isolated from all primary circuitry. Do not connect any circuit to the EPO terminal block unless it can be confirmed that the circuit is Class 2 or SELV. If circuit standard cannot be confirmed, use a contact closure switch. Use one of the following cable types to connect the UPS to the EPO switch.

• CL2: Class 2 cable for general use.

• CL2P: Plenum cable for use in ducts, plenums, and other spaces used for environmental air.

• CL2R: Riser cable for use in a vertical run in a floor-to-floor shaft.

• CLEX: Limited use cable for use in dwellings and for use in raceways.

• For installation in Canada: Use only CSA certified, type ELC, (extra-low voltage control cable).

• For installation in other countries: Use standard low-voltage cable in accordance with national and local regulations.

Troubleshooting

Use the table below to solve minor UPS installation and operation problems. Refer to the APC Web site, www.apc.com for assistance with complex UPS problems.

Problem and Possible Cause Solution

UPS does not turn on

Battery not connected properly Check that the battery connectors are fully engaged.

The ON/OFF button was not pressed. Press the ON/OFF button once to power the UPS and the connected equipment.

The UPS is not connected to the utility power supply.

Check that the power cable from the UPS to the utility power supply is securely connected at both ends.

There is a very low or no utility voltage.

Check the utility power supply to the UPS and plug in a table lamp. If the light is very dim, the utility voltage should be checked.

The UPS does not turn on

The ON/OFF button was not pressed. Press the ON/OFF button once to turn the UPS off.

Internal UPS fault. Do not attempt to use the UPS. Unplug the UPS and have it serviced

immediately.

UPS beeps occasionally

This is Normal UPS operation with the use of a battery.

None. The connected equipment is protected by the UPS.

UPS does not provide expected backup time

The UPS battery(s) are weak due to a recent outage or battery(s) are near the end of their service life.

Charge the battery(s). Batteries require recharging after extended outages. Batteries wear faster when put into service often or when operated at elevated temperatures. If the battery(s) are near the end of the predicted service life, consider a battery replacement (s)even if the Replace Battery LED is not illuminated.

Front panel LEDS flash sequentially

The UPS has been shut down remotely through software or an optional accessory card.

None. The UPS will restart automatically when utility power returns.

All LEDS are off and the UPS is plugged into a wall outlet.

The UPS is shut down and the battery is discharged from an extended outage.

None. The UPS will return to normal operation when the power is restored and the battery has a sufficient charge.

Smart-UPS SRC 5000/6000/8000/10000 VA 14

Problem and Possible Cause Solution

Bypass Overload alarm on LCD panel, UPS emits a sustained alarm tone

The UPS is overloaded The connected equipment exceeds the specified maximum load as defined in

specifications on the APC Web site at www.apc.com.

The alarm remains on until the overload is removed. Disconnect nonessential equipment from the UPS to eliminate the overload condition.

Fault LED illuminates

Internal UPS fault. Do not attempt to use the UPS. TURN the UPS off and have it serviced

immediately.

Replace battery LED illuminates

Replace Battery LED flashes and short beep is emitted every two seconds to indicate the battery is disconnected.

Check that the battery connectors are fully engaged.

Weak battery Allow the battery to recharge for 24 hours and perform a self-test. If the problem

persists after the battery is recharged, replace the battery.

Failure of a battery self-test. The UPS emits short beeps for one minute and the Replace Battery LED

illuminates. The UPS repeats the alarm every five hours. Perform the self-test procedure after the battery charges for 24 hours to confirm the Replace Battery condition. The alarm stops and the LED clears if the battery passes the self-test.

The UPS operates on a battery although the line voltage exists

Very high, low, or distorted line voltage. Inexpensive fuel powered generators can distort the voltage.

Move the UPS to a different outlet on a different circuit. Test the input voltage with the utility voltage display

Online LED

There is no LED illumination The UPS is powered by the battery, or is not turned on.

The LED blinks The UPS is powered by the internal self-test.

Maintenance and Transport

Battery Replacement

The external battery packs do not have user replaceable battery modules. Contact APC at www.apc.com to order replacement external battery packs.

Once the battery packs have been disconnected the connected equipment is not protected from power outages.

When the battery packs have been replaced the LED on the display interface will prompt the user to enter a new battery replacement date.

Return spent batteries to an appropriate facility for proper disposal and recycling.

Prepare the UPS for transport

1. Disconnect the UPS from all external battery packs.

2. Shut down and disconnect all equipment connected to the UPS.

3. Shut down and disconnect the UPS from utility power.
