Safety and General Information

Battery safety

Inspect package contents upon receipt. Notify carrier and dealer of any damage.

WARNING: RISK OF CHEMICAL HAZARD AND EXCESSIVE HEAT

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious injury.

Contact APC by Schneider Electric Worldwide Customer Support to determine RBM age.

NOTE: Servicing battery modules requires personnel knowledgeable about batteries and precautions.

Deenergizing safety

RBMs typically last 8-10 years; environmental factors affect life. Elevated temperatures, poor power quality, and frequent discharges shorten battery life.

For optimal RBM performance, maintain ambient temperature between 20-25 °C (68-77 °F).

Schneider Electric uses maintenance-free Lithium-Ion batteries. Normal use and handling should not require contact with internal RBM components.

CAUTION: A battery can present a risk of electrical shock and high short-circuit current. Contact with any part of a grounded battery can result in electrical shock.

Precautions when working on RBMs:

CAUTION: Before installing or replacing RBMs, remove jewelry like wristwatches and rings.

High short circuit current can cause severe burns.

CAUTION: Do not dispose of RBMs in fire; they may explode.

CAUTION: Do not open or tamper with RBM enclosure; this exposes hazardous cell terminals.

CAUTION: Do not open or mutilate RBM; released material is harmful and may be toxic.

CAUTION: Failed RBMs can reach temperatures exceeding burn thresholds.

The UPS contains RBMs and may present a shock hazard even when disconnected from mains. Before installing/servicing, ensure:

Emergency Power Off

Overview

The Emergency Power Off (EPO) option immediately disconnects all connected equipment from mains power. The UPS shuts down and does not switch to battery power. Restart the UPS by touching the POWER button on the front panel.

Normally open contacts

If EPO switch/relay contacts are normally open: Insert wires from switch/contacts at pins 1 and 2 of the EPO terminal block (use 16-28 AWG wire). Secure wires by tightening screws.

If contacts are closed, UPS turns OFF and removes power from load.

Normally closed contacts

If EPO switch/relay contacts are normally closed: Insert wires from switch/contacts at pins 2 and 3 of the EPO terminal block (use 16-28 AWG wire). Insert a wire jumper between pins 1 and 2. Secure wires by tightening screws at positions 1, 2, and 3.

If contacts are opened, UPS turns OFF and removes power from load.

NOTE: Pin 1 is the EPO circuit power source (24 V, few mA).

For normally closed (NC) EPO, use EPO switch/relay rated for "dry" circuit applications (low voltage, low current), typically gold-plated contacts.

The EPO interface is a Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) circuit. Connect only to other SELV circuits. Avoid connecting to circuits other than SELV to prevent UPS damage.

Use appropriate cable types for EPO connection (CL2, CL2P, CL2R, CLEX, CSA certified ELC for Canada, standard low voltage cable elsewhere).

Network Management Interface

NOTE: Feature available only in SRT3KRM1UNC and SRT2K2RM1UNC models.

Introduction

The UPS has network and console ports for accessing the Network Management Interface. It shares firmware, operation modes, and interaction with other APC products like PowerChute Network Shutdown.

Features

The Network Management Interface allows the UPS to function as a Web-based, IPv6-ready product.

It can manage the UPS using standards like HTTP, SSH, SNMP (v1, v3), HTTPS, FTP, SCP, Telnet, Syslog, RADIUS.

The Network Management Interface:

IP Address Configuration

Default TCP/IP configuration is DHCP. If Network Management Interface obtains IPv4 address from DHCP server, use UPS Display Interface menus About → Network → NMC IPv4 Address to view it.

To set a static IPv4 address, use the UPS Display Interface Config menu to set IP address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway.

Upgrade Firmware

UPS, Battery Module, and XLBP firmware can be updated via the web interface of the UPS network management card. Firmware images are digitally signed for security.

SmartConnect

NOTE: Feature available only in SRTL3KRM1UC/SRTL2K2RM1UC.

SmartConnect Ethernet Port monitors UPS health and status from any internet-connected device. Access terms of use at https://smartconnect.apc.com.

Batteries recharge after extended outages and wear faster with frequent use or high temperatures. If batteries are near end of life, consider replacement even if "Replace Battery" message is not displayed.
The UPS is experiencing an overload condition. Connected equipment exceeds maximum load. Refer to www.apc.com for specifications. UPS emits sustained audible alarm until overload is corrected. Disconnect nonessential equipment to correct overload.
UPS operates on battery power while connected to mains power
The input circuit breaker has tripped. Reduce load on UPS. Disconnect nonessential equipment and reset breaker. Check breaker rating for connected equipment.
There is very high, very low, or distorted input line voltage. Navigate to UPS Display Interface screen showing input voltage. Verify voltage is within specified limits. If no input voltage is indicated, contact Customer Support via www.apc.com.
UPS Display Interface Status screen shows Overload and emits a sustained audible alarm. The UPS is experiencing an overload condition. Connected equipment exceeds maximum load rating. UPS emits sustained audible alarm until overload is corrected. Disconnect nonessential equipment to correct overload.
UPS Display Interface Status screen shows UPS is operating in Bypass mode
The UPS received a command to operate in Bypass mode. No action is required.
The UPS has automatically switched to Bypass mode due to an internal UPS alert or message. The UPS Display Interface screen will show a message identifying the alert or detected error and corrective action.
UPS Display Interface is red or amber and shows an alert or message
The UPS emits a sustained audible alarm. The UPS has detected a problem during normal operation. Follow instructions on UPS Display Interface screen. Touch any key to mute all audible alarms.
The UPS Display Interface screen shows the message Disconnected Battery. Ensure battery cables are securely connected.
The UPS Display Interface screen shows the message Replace Battery. Replace all RBMs. Contact customer support.
The UPS display turns red or black, displays an alert message, and emits a sustained audible alarm. Red illumination indicates an UPS alarm requiring immediate attention. Black illumination indicates an UPS alarm requiring attention.
There is an internal UPS alert or message. (e.g., Alarm Event Code P.08) Do not attempt to use the UPS. Turn the UPS off and have it serviced immediately.
The UPS is experiencing an overload condition. (e.g., Alarm State Power Overload) Reduce the load on the UPS. Disconnect nonessential equipment.
The UPS has detected a Site Wiring Fault. (e.g., Alert State Site Wiring) Correct the building site wiring fault or ignore this message. See Config Menu UPS in "General settings" on page 21.
