Installation and User Manual

Safety Rules
Safety of persons
The UPS must be installed in a room with restricted access (qualified personnel only). A UPS has its own external
power source (the battery). Consequently, the power outlets may be energized even if the UPS is disconnected from
the AC-power source.
Dangerous voltage levels are present within the UPS. It should be opened exclusively by qualified service
personnel.
The UPS must be properly grounded.
The battery supplied with the UPS contains small amounts of toxic materials.
To avoid accidents, the instructions below must be observed.
◗ Never operate the UPS if the ambient temperature and relative humidity are higher than the levels specified
in the documentation.
◗ 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.
◗ Caution, wait five minutes before opening the UPS to allow the capacitors to discharge.
◗ Caution, there is high leakage current, the grounding conductor must be connected first.
◗ The product must be installed on a non-inflammable surface (e.g. concrete).
◗ Caution, battery replacement must be carried out by qualified personnel.
Product safety
A protection circuit breaker must be installed upstream and downstream, and be easily accessible.
◗ Never install the UPS near liquids or in an excessively damp environment.
◗ Never let a liquid or foreign body penetrate inside the UPS.
◗ Never block the ventilation grates of the UPS.
◗ Never expose the UPS to direct sunlight or a source of heat.
◗ When replacing battery cells, use the same type and number of cells.
Special precautions
◗ The UPS connection instructions contained in this manual must be followed in the indicated order.
◗ Check that the indications on the rating plate correspond to your AC-power system and to the actual electrical
consumption of all the equipment to be connected to the UPS.
◗ If the UPS must be stored prior to installation, storage must be in a dry place.
◗ The admissible storage temperature range is -25°C to +45°C.
◗ If the UPS remains de-energized for a long period, we recommend that you energize the UPS for a period of 24
hours, at least every three months. This charges the battery, thus avoiding possible irreversible damage.
◗ The UPS is designed for normal climatic and environmental operating conditions concerning the altitude, ambient
operating temperature, relative humidity and ambient transport and storage conditions.
◗ Using the UPS within the given limits guarantees its operation, but may affect the service life of certain components, particularly that of the battery and its autonomy. The maximum storage time of the UPS is limited due to the
need to recharge the battery.
◗ Unusual operating conditions may justify special design or protection measures:
- harmful smoke, dust, abrasive dust,
- humidity, vapor, salt air, bad weather or dripping,
- explosive dust and gas mixture,
- extreme temperature variations,
- bad ventilation,
- conductive or radiant heat from other sources,
- strong electromagnetic fields,
- radioactive levels higher than those of the natural environment,
- fungus, insects, vermin, etc.,
- battery operating conditions.

Operation of the Relay Communication Card (Dry Contacts)
All systems are equipped with this remote transmissions card (also known as SECI).
A complete specification exists for the card used in MGE Galaxy 5000.
This card is used for the transmission of information between the system and the environment.
Two inputs and six outputs are available for the user (see the table below for the default programming).
3.10.1

Standard Mode

It is compatible with all MGE systems that are I2 C compatible.
All the SA1 microswitches must be set to OFF (if two SECI cards are installed in the unit, the second card must
be identified differently. On the second card, microswitch 1 on SA1 must be set to ON).
In this mode, the relays switch when the UPS changes status. The information listed below is transmitted if the
parameters were enabled in UPS Tuner.

Programmable Mode

This operating mode is specific to the MGE Galaxy 5000. The description in this document concerns only the MGE
Galaxy 5000.
Microswitch 3 on SA1 must be set to ON (if two SECI cards are installed in the unit, the second card must be
identified differently. On the second card, microswitch 1 on SA1 must be set to ON).
In this mode, it is possible to assign predefined operating status conditions (see the complete list) to the various
SECI output relays and predefined UPS commands to the SELV inputs.
Assignments are made using the MGE Galaxy 5000 user-machine interface.

Servicing Batteries
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR SERVICING BATTERIES
Servicing of batteries should be performed or supervised by personnel knowledgeable of batteries and the required
precautions. Keep unauthorized personnel away from batteries.
When replacing batteries, use the same model and manufacturer of batteries.

CAUTION

Do not dispose of battery or batteries in a fire. The battery may explode. Do not
open or mutilate the battery or batteries. Released electrolyte is harmful to the
skin and eyes. It may be toxic. A battery can present a risk of electrical shock and
high short-circuit current.

The following precautions should be observed when working with batteries:

4.6

◗

Remove watches, rings, or other metal objects.

◗

Use tools with insulated handles.

◗

Wear rubber gloves and boots.

◗

Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries.

◗

Disconnect charging source prior to connecting or disconnecting battery terminals.

◗

Determine if the battery is inadvertently grounded. If inadvertently grounded, remove the source of ground.
Contact with any part of a grounded battery can result in electrical shock. The likelihood of such shock will be
reduced if such grounds are removed during installation and maintenance.

INFORMATION The operating temperature range is 32°F to 104°F (0°C to +40°C); for overload
conditions is 32°F to 86°F (0°C to +30°C). Optimum operating range is within 68°F
to 77°F (20°C to +25°C). Battery backup time is adversely affected by high and low
temperatures. It is significantly reduced at temperatures under 50°F (10°C). Above
77°F (25°C), battery service life is cut in half every 18°F (10°C). Above 104°F (40°C),
battery manufacturers no longer guarantee operation due to the risk of thermal
runaway.
