  • Damage due to adverse environmental conditions
  • Components reaching the end of their life
  • Improper alignment of circuit boards and/or assemblies
  • Other identified problem areas

*** System Battery Functional Testing
Battery maintenance is limited to visual inspections, VPC/VPB readings, and intercell connection tightness. Where possible, to ensure proper operation of the systems under transfer of the load to battery, after permission from the client is obtained, the battery charger supplying the UPS will be interrupted or lowered in output voltage to cause the system to operate from the batteries. The system will be returned to a normal operational state prior to completing discharge of the battery. Equalize and float voltages will be adjusted as necessary to return them to their desired values. System battery functional testing should not be used in lieu of dedicated maintenance and inspection testing of the battery system as outlined elsewhere in this brochure and/or battery manufacturer's installation guides.
