DO NOT CONNECT equipment that could overload the UPS or demand half- wave rectification from the UPS, for example: electric drills, vacuum cleaners, laser printers or hairdryers. Storing magnetic media on top of the UPS may result in data loss or corruption. Turn the UPS off and isolate the UPS before cleaning; use only a soft cloth, never liquid or aerosol cleaners. Keep the front and rear vents free of dust accumulation that could restrict airflow. When replacing batteries, replace with th

INTRODUCTION Congratulations on your choice of the Liebert GXT2U™ Uninterruptible Power System (UPS). It provides conditioned power to microcomputers and other sensitive electronic equipment. Upon generation, AC power is clean and stable. However, during transmission and distribution it may be subject to voltage sags, spikes, or complete power failure that may interrupt computer operations, cause data loss, or even damage equipment. The Liebert GXT2U protects equipment from these disturban

DC-to-DC Converter The DC-to-DC converter utilizes energy from the battery system and raises the DC voltage to the optimum operating voltage for the inverter. This allows the inverter to operate continuously at its optimum efficiency and voltage, thus increasing reliability. Battery The Liebert GXT2U utilizes valve-regulated, nonspillable lead acid batteries. To maintain battery design life, operate the UPS in an ambient temperature of 68°F to 77°F (20°C to 25°C). Optional external battery

UPStation GXT –+ AC INPUT BATTERY UPS ON BYPASS Rack-Mount UPS Conversion and Installation NOTE When rack mounted, the UPS must be supported by a shelf, brackets or slide rails on each side. The rack mount handles WILL NOT support the weight of the UPS. They are used to move the UPS into and out of the rack. 1. For slide rail installations, first remove the top/side fin. Slide the top/side fin forward, then lift it up to remove. If desired, install the optional rack mount handles that were s

4. Use the enclosed support bases for the tower option to prevent tip-over. One additional set of support base extensions ships with each external battery cabinet. 5. Connect the supplied external battery cabi- net cable to the rear of the external battery cabinet, then to the rear of the UPS. 6. Turn ON the battery breaker on the rear of the external battery cabinet. 7. The UPS is now equipped with additional backup battery run time. For approximate battery run times, refer to the Batter
