Safety Warnings

Read this manual carefully and completely before installing and using the TECNOWARE ERA

PLUS Uninterruptible Power Supply, which, from here after, will also be referred to as UPS.

This manual should be kept close to the UPS and read before the UPS is installed and used.

The UPS must be used only by properly trained personnel. To ensure correct and safe

operations, it is necessary that operators and maintenance personnel observe the general

safety Standards as well as the specific instructions included in this manual.

Risk of electric shock: do not remove the cover. The UPS contains internal parts, which are at a

high Voltage and are potentially dangerous, capable of causing injury or death by electric

shock.

There are no internal parts in the UPS, which are user serviceable. Any repair or maintenance

work must be performed exclusively by qualified technical personnel authorized by

TECNOWARE. TECNOWARE declines any responsibility if this warning is disregarded.

Warning to the technical personnel authorized for Service: since internal components are

connected to the batteries, they will remain powered, and therefore dangerous, even after the

UPS has been disconnected from AC power mains. Before any repair or maintenance work,

disconnect the batteries, by removing the positive cable (red colour) from the positive pole of

the battery.

It is compulsory to ground the UPS according to Safety Standards. The AC mains power supply

socket used to power the UPS must have an earth connection.

In the event of AC main power supply failure (when the UPS works in Battery mode), do not

unplug the power supply cable to the UPS to ensure earth continuity to the connected loads.

Since the AC mains power supply cable acts as a separation device, the AC mains power socket

used to supply the UPS and/or the rear side of the UPS must be accessible to easily disconnect

the cable in case of dangerous conditions.

Risk of electric shock at the Output lines when the UPS is ON.

Risk of electric shock at the Output lines while the unit is connected to the AC utility line.

UPS ERA PLUS 1.600 –2.000 –2.600 3User’s manual

1Introduction

ERA PLUS is a Line Interactive UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) specifically designed to protect your computer

from any type of irregularities in the AC line (such as black-outs, under or over voltages, micro-interruptions),

which often cause damage to your Hardware and Software.

Under normal AC line condition, ERA PLUS performs output voltage regulation and filters frequently occurring

electrical disturbances (such as transients, spikes, interferences, etc.), thus protecting all devices connected to

the outlets, and recharging the batteries in an ideal way. In case of anomaly to the AC line, the UPS continues

feeding the protected equipment.

ERA PLUS is equipped with USB interface which can be used to notify a power failure or a low battery condition

directly to a computer: this makes it possible to automatically save your data during an extended black-out with

the most widespread operating systems (Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, etc.).

Read this manual carefully before using the ERA PLUS; it includes important safety

warnings and useful advices for correct use and installation.

This manual is a guide that enables you to correctly install and use your ERA PLUS. This

manual includes important SAFETY instructions for the operator, for the UPS correct

installation, and gives useful advice on the product and battery maintenance. For any

type of problem, please refer to this manual before calling the customer service.

ERA PLUS is constantly being developed and improved: consequently, your unit may differ somewhat from the

description contained in this manual.

This manual includes the following models:

ERA PLUS 1.600 (1.6 KVA)

ERA PLUS 2.000 (2.0 KVA)

ERA PLUS 2.600 (2.6 KVA)

In this manual ERA PLUS will simply be referred to as UPS.

3Receipt and site selection

Carefully remove the UPS from its packaging, and carry out a meticulous inspection. We recommend keeping the

original packaging in a secure place, in case you need to send the UPS for maintenance purposes. In case of

transport damage, notify the carrier and dealer immediately.

We recommend paying attention to the below points in order to choose a correct placement for your UPS:

The UPS is designed to operate in a protected environment (e.g. offices). We therefore recommend

installing it in a place with very little or no humidity, dust or smoke.

In all circumstances, see the “Technical Characteristics”chapter for environmental specifications and

check that the selected area meets these specifications.

During normal operation the UPS discharges a minimal amount of heat. So it is necessary to leave at least

20 cm of unobstructed space all around the UPS in order to keep it properly ventilated.

Do not obstruct ventilation holes.

Do not insert objects or pour liquids in the ventilation holes.

Do not rest any object on top of the UPS.

Do not keep liquids, flammable gases or corrosive substances near the unit.

Install the UPS on a properly tiled floor. Avoid the installation on a floor that is not tiled flat.

5Electrical Installation and First Start Up

We advise you to follow the steps below explained for greater safety:

1. Switch off all the devices (Personal Computer or other electronic devices) that need to be supplied by the

UPS.

2. Connect the UPS Input socket to the AC line outlet Through the Personal Computer supplying cable. It is

mandatory to ground the AC line outlet according to the Safety Standards. Carefully check the grounding,

make sure that the utility power is available, and that its range falls within the UPS specifications (refer to

the “Specifications” chapter).

3. Press the ON/OFF button on the front panel: the UPS emits a brief acoustic signal, turns on the Leds, and

performs a functioning SELF-TEST. After some seconds the UPS starts to work in Normal mode: the Line Led

in blue color is on. Leave the UPS in Normal mode for at least 4 hours in order to completely recharge the

batteries.

4. Switch the UPS off (by pressing again the ON/OFF button).

5. Connect the devices to be supplied to the UPS outputs, by using only the included cables. Be sure all the

devices have the main switch in ON position.

6. Turn on the UPS again. Check that it starts working correctly and it doesn’t signal any sort of anomaly.

Moreover be sure that all the devices connected to the UPS outputs are working correctly. Check that the

UPS do not go in overload status; otherwise it is necessary to remove part of the Output load.

7. Simulate a black-out by removing the AC Input line. The UPS starts working in Battery mode: the Line Led

(blue color) is off and the Battery Led (yellow color) icon is on. Moreover the UPS emits a brief acoustic

signal every 10 seconds.

8. Be sure that all the devices connected to the UPS outputs are working correctly and the UPS doesn’t signal

any sort of anomaly.

9. Restore the AC Input line: after few seconds the UPS turns back in Normal mode.

Before using ERA PLUS normally, leave it in Normal mode in order to charge the batteries completely as specified

at point 3. The batteries reach the 90% of their capacity after about 4 hours of recharge.

It is compulsory to ground/earth the UPS according to the Safety Standards.

Risk of electric shock at the Output lines if the UPS is ON, even when the UPS is not

connected to AC utility line.

Risk of electric shock at the Output lines while the unit is connected to the AC utility

line.

Risk of electric shock: do not remove the cover. The UPS contains internal parts, which
