102. Receiving, Moving and Storing Systems and Batteries
102.1 Shipping Damage
Inverter system batteries are shipped along with the unit within a single shipping carton. Bat-teries for most units are not shipped within the housing with the exception of Plenum Rated Ceiling Mount (TGrid) models. Carefully inspect all cartons upon receipt for evidence of shipping damage. Notify carrier immediately of leaking or damaged cartons for possible concealed damage.
102.2 Temporary Storage of Units and Batteries
For temporary storage of C-INV inverter systems and batteries prior to installation, select a clean, cool, dry location with normal ventilation for human habitation and level floors. Storage Temperature: Store all batteries at 0° to +40° C (32° to +104° F). Batteries will have a longer shelf life if stored at 15° C (60° F). The C-INV electronics and battery cabinets may be stored at -20° to +60° C (-4° to +140° F).
IMPORTANT: Lengthy storage of batteries will cause irreversible damage to the cells. Failure to connect C-INV inverter system batteries to an energized charging circuit within 90 days from the date of shipment will void the battery warranty.
DANGER: Explosive - Can Cause Blindness Or Other Severe Injuries Every type of battery can produce hydrogen gas, even sealed, maintenance-free batteries. The gas is vented through the vent caps and into the air. Do not allow smoking, sparks, or flames in battery storage location because hydrogen is concentrated under the vent cap of each cell of the battery. Hydrogen is highly explosive, and is hard to detect because it is colorless, odorless, and lighter than air.

103. Installation Requirements

103.1 Operating Environment
Install the C-INV inverter system in a clean, cool, dry place with normal ventilation for human habitation and in such a location to hamper vandalism but allow easy access for testing and
maintenance.

Operating Temperature: C-INV inverter Systems with Lead Calcium batteries are UL Listed for 20° to 30° C (+ 68° to +86° F) operation. C-INV inverter Systems with Nickel Cadmium batteries are UL Listed for 0° to 50° C (+ 32° to +122° F) operation.
Battery performance and service life is maximized if the operating temperature is maintained at 25° C
(77° F).

Temperature Effect On Lead Calcium Battery Performance: Lead Calcium batteries will be less efficient at temperatures below 20° C (68° F), and high tempera-
tures will reduce battery life. Typically, at 35° C (95° F), battery life will be half of what it would be at
normal temperature of 25° C (77° F). At 45° C (113° F), battery life will be one-fourth of normal.

Temperature Effect On Nickel Cadmium Battery Performance: Nickel Cadmium batteries will provide their full rated capacity throughout their useful life when operated within a range of 0°C to 50°C (32°F to 122°F)

Ventilation: The air around the unit must be clean, dust-free, and free of corrosive chemicals or other contaminants. Do not place the Inverter system or batteries in a sealed room or container. CAUTION: Never Install Batteries in A Sealed Room Or Enclosure

103.2 High Altitude Operation:

The maximum operating temperature drops 1° Celsius per 300 meters (2° F per 1000 feet) above sea

level. Maximum elevation is 3000 meters (10,000 feet).

104. Cabinet Mounting
104.1 Tools Required
The following tools are required to install the system: Socket Set, Phillips Screwdriver, Diagonal Wire Cutters, Long Nose Pliers, Electrical Tape, Digital Volt-Ohm Meter, Safety Glasses with Side Shields, Small Punch (knockout removal), Hammer, Electric Drill, Wood or Masonry Bits, Level.
104.2 Mounting Hardware
Mounting hardware is not provided. Care should be taken when selecting mounting hardware to assure that it is the proper type for the application and sized to safely support the systems full weight when installed assuring safe and secure attachment of system to wall surface or building structures. For ease of installation, the factory recommends that the head size of mounting screws or bolts be small enough to pass through the keyhole knockouts provided for mounting. This will allow the unit to be hung on partially installed mounting hardware and facilitate easy cabinet removal if ever necessary.
104.3 Knockout Locations
All models provide knockouts on the top and right-hand side of the unit. Additional entry points, if required can be added using a metal punch. Do not drill into the cabinet as metal filings can cause short circuits and damage the equipment. NOTE: Consider unit knockout locations prior to mounting unit. Allow room for easy routing of conduit to entry point.
104.4 Surface Mount (-S) Models:

200. Maintenance
200.1 Safe Shut Down Procedure
CAUTION: To avoid possible equipment damage or personal injury, assume that there is AC voltage present inside the C-INV inverter system unit any time AC input power or DC battery voltage is applied. The inverter is capable of providing output voltage from the batteries even when there is no AC input line voltage. When AC input voltage is present, the unit can provide output voltage even when the batteries are disconnected.
Do not touch components inside the unit. DC voltage is always present at the batteries and battery cables.
Final Shut Down Procedure
1. Open the unit's front access panel. 2. Disconnect the unit battery leads to make sure the unit will not supply output voltage. 3. Place the AC Input circuit breaker at the service panel in the OFF position.
CAUTION: HAZARDOUS ENERGY IS STORED IN CAPACITORS INSIDE THE MPS UNIT. AFTER TURNING OFF SWITCHES, ALLOW 5 MINUTES FOR CAPACITORS TO DISCHARGE BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY SERVICE PROCEDURES. 4. If the service technician does not need to access the inside of the unit, keep the unit's front cover/door closed. 5. If the unit will be shut off for an extended period of time, recharge battery every 60 to 90 days. CAUTION: The battery will be damaged and the warranty voided if not routinely recharged.
NOTE: To turn power back on, follow the "System Start-up Procedure" outlined in Section 108. Be sure to complete all of the steps to assure the unit will operate properly.
200.2 Routine System Maintenance
The C-INV inverter system unit is designed to provide years of trouble-free operation. The unit does re-quire some routine attention to assure peak performance. The Manufacturer recommends a Preven-tative Maintenance check be performed by a qualified service technician at least every six months. The technician must observe important safety precautions while performing the following recommended tasks: · Inspect and clean the unit interiors; · Inspect all batteries for leaks, case swelling or terminal corrosion;; · Perform an emergency operation test to check operation of all critical connected loads
200.3 Manual Routine Inverter Tests
NFPA101 requires that Emergency Lighting Equipment be tested on a monthly basis for a period of at least 5 seconds, and a minimum of 90 minutes once a year. We strongly recommend these guidelines be followed to insure system readiness, and to prolong battery life. The C-INV system was designed with a front panel test switch to facilitate monthly testing. Simply depress the button and hold to test the inverter at anytime. Once released, the C-INV will revert back to standby operation. For annual 90minute discharge or other prolonged tests, simply turn off the AC Input breaker at the service panel.
12.

200.4 Routine Battery Inspection and Maintenance
Sealed Lead-Calcium Batteries Maintenance-free cells are the most common type of battery used today in standby equipment. By design it is as maintenance free as a battery can be. It is recommended, however, that some simple steps be taken to increase system life and maximize reliability: A) A quarterly visual check of the battery should be conducted to look for deformities in the
battery case, electrolyte leakage and/or terminal corrosion. Any batteries with these conditions are defective and should be replaced. Any corroded terminals found, regardless how slight, are to be cleaned at once to prevent system failure. B) Once a year, all battery connections should be checked for tightness and cleaned and retightened as necessary.
200.5 Battery Replacement Procedure
WARNING: Always use the same quantity and type of battery as replacements. Substituting batteries not supplied by the Manufacturer will void the UL listing of the system and may cause equipment failure. To ensure the superior performance of yourC-INV inverter system and to maintain proper charger operation, replace spent batteries only with those having the same part number, voltage and ampere-hour rating as the original batteries. 1. Follow the proper shut down procedure as described in Section 200.1. 2. Disconnect the battery Positive red (B+) and Negative black (B-) connectors. 3. Remove the battery from the cabinet. 4. Install new battery following the instructions outlined in Section 106.2.
200.6 Battery Disposal
WARNINGS: · Do not dispose of batteries in a fire, the batteries could explode. · Do not open or mutilate batteries. · Released electrolyte is highly toxic and harmful to the skin and eyes. CAUTION: Batteries contain lead or cadmium, depending on model. Many state and local governments have regulations about used battery disposal. Please dispose of the batteries properly.
