General safety
WARNING!
All electrical power and control wiring must be installed by a qualified electrician and
comply with local and national codes.
WARNING!
When connected, the UPS contains energy from both AC and DC sources. If the UPS
has dual mains supply, be aware of the two AC supply sources. Risk of electric shock -
parts inside the UPS are energized from the battery supply even the AC power is
disconnected.
WARNING!
Servicing of batteries should be performed or supervised by personnel knowledgeable
of batteries and the required precautions. Keep unauthorized personnel away from
batteries.
WARNING!
Batteries do not contain serviceable parts. Only APC authorized personnel may open
batteries.
WARNING!
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.
WARNING!
Risk of Energy Hazard, 96 V, 7.2 Ampere-hour battery. Before replacing batteries,
remove watches, rings, or other metal objects. High energy through conductive
materials could cause severe burns.
WARNING!
When handling batteries, wear rubber gloves and boots. Do not lay tools or metal
objects on top of batteries.
WARNING!
When replacing a Battery Unit, replace with the same number of the APC SYBT1
(always replace a whole Battery Module (4 Battery Units) at a time).
WARNING!
Only trained personnel familiar with the construction and operation of the equipment
and the electrical and mechanical hazards involved, may install and remove system
components.
For configurations including customer-supplied external batteries, refer to
manufacturers battery installation and maintenance instructions.

Introduction
Welcome to the Site Preparation and Installation Manual for the Smart-UPS® VT. This manual
contains information on how to prepare your site for the installation of the UPS and optional APC
equipment (also available at www.apc.com) and instructions on how to carry out the electrical/
mechanical installation. Separate manuals are available on:
Receiving and Unpacking - part no. 990-1747
Operation - part no. 990-1599
Note
Keep the UPS free from loose objects to prevent obstruction of the airflow.
Note

Note
Most illustrations show 20.59 in / 523 mm Enclosures but apply to both Enclosure sizes
(13.85 in / 352 mm and 20.59 in / 523 mm). Any differences between the two Enclosure
sizes will be addressed in the manual.

Recommended current protection
Note 1: If the available fault current of the installation is below 30 kA, a lower kAIC-rated breaker can be
used.
Note 2: For breaker settings, refer to below table listing available overload currents.
Note 3: If the available fault current of the installation is less than 1200 A for the 10 kVA and 15 kVA UPS
sizes, and below 2300 A for the 20 kVA and 30 kVA UPS sizes, a breaker (of the same value as for the
bypass input) can be used.
Note 4: Recommended maximum rating of a single-fuse configuration if the internal bypass is to be protected
during a load short-circuit.

Mechanical assembly
Stabilizing Brackets
Always install the Stabilizing Brackets on the 13.85 in/352 mm Enclosure (shipped with the UPS) to
enhance the stability of the Enclosure.
If the Enclosure needs to be moved after Stabilizing Brackets have been attached to the Enclosure,
the Stabilizing Brackets must be pushed up into their high position.
Loosen the two screws of both Stabilizing Brackets, and push the bracket up into the high
position.
When the Enclosure has reached its new position, push the Bracket into its “down” position
again, and tighten the screws.
Note
Attach the Stabilizing Bracket to the UPS Enclosure re-using the screws used to secure
the UPS to the pallet during shipment.
WARNING!
For stability reasons, do not remove Stabilizing Brackets from 13.85 in/352 mm
Enclosures.

Leveling Feet
Setting the leveling feet
Set the leveling feet to ensure the UPS is horizontal when it is in its final operating position. Use a 13/
14-mm wrench (shipped with UPS) to adjust all 4 leveling feet from front to back, and left to right,
until the pads make solid contact with the floor. Use a bubble level to check the Enclosure is
horizontal.
Note
Verify that the installation has been electrically wired before setting the leveling feet.
CAUTION!
To avoid equipment damage, do not push or pull the UPS after the leveling feet have
been lowered.
When the Leveling Feet have been set, remember to reinstall the Front Panel.
See Front Panel section.

Floor Anchoring
Drilling floor holes for floor anchoring
Hole positions for floor anchors (stand-alone Enclosures)
Refer to this drawing for floor anchor positions for 20.59 in/523 mm.
Refer to this drawing for 13.85 in/352 mm.
Note
If floor anchoring is required in your area, read this section. If not, proceed to
Operating Environment. However, if you install a 13.85 in/352 mm Enclosure, it must
always be equipped with the Stabilizing Bracket for enhanced stability (not necessary
to bolt the Stabilizing Bracket to the floor in non-seismic areas).
Note
If the UPS installation requires floor anchoring, the UPS installation must be anchored to
the floor, re-using the brackets that also secured the UPS to the pallets when shipped. For
easy determination of where to drill the holes, refer to the applicable drawings below
indicating hole positions and size.

Floor anchoring of stand-alone systems
In seismic areas, it is recommended that the installation be bolted to the floor, and that the batteries be
secured in the Enclosure by the Battery Securing Brackets.
For floor anchoring, use the 2 transport brackets that were used to secure the UPS to the pallet
during transport.
Align the 4 holes in the bottom angle of the Floor Anchoring Bracket on either side of the
Enlosures to the pre-drilled holes in the floor

Wiring Verification Procedure
Use following procedure to verify that the UPS has been wired properly:
Note
Do not connect batteries in the UPS.
1. If your installation includes an XR Enclosure, make sure that the DC breaker (if
available) is in the OFF position and that both 125A fuses are removed from the
XR Enclosure.
2. Check that the power wiring is torqued to 45 lbf.in/7Nm.
3. If your installation includes an XR Enclosure, remount the 125A fuses in the XR
Enclosure and check that the DC breaker (if available) on the XR Battery
Enclosure is in the ON position.
4. Please leave a wiring diagram on site for service / technical support personnel.
Note
If a problem occurs, phone Customer Support at (1) (800) 800-4272 (US and Canada).
Refer to rear cover for contact numbers in other countries.
