6 | Important Safety Instructions
IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
! WARNING
Observe all cautions and warnings in this manual. Failure to do so may result in serious injury or death.
Refer all UPS and battery service to properly trained and qualied service personnel. Do not attempt to service this product
yourself and never work alone.
Opening or removing the cover may expose you to lethal voltages within this unit, even when it is apparently not operating
and the input wiring is disconnected from the electrical source.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
is manual contains important safety instructions that must be followed during the installation and maintenance of the UPS
and batteries. Read this manual thoroughly before attempting to install or operate this UPS.
is UPS contains no user-serviceable parts. e O/Bypass push button does not electrically isolate internal parts. Under
no circumstances should you attempt to gain internal access other than to replace the batteries due to risk of electric shock or
burn. Do not continue to use the UPS if the front panel indicators are not in accordance with these operating instructions or
if the UPS performance alters in use. Refer all faults to your local distributor, SolaHD representative or SolaHD Technical
Support.
is UPS has an internal battery, and the output receptacles of the UPS may carry live voltage even if the UPS is not
connected to utility input power.
Before moving or rewiring this UPS, disconnect utility input power and the battery and make sure that the UPS is completely
shut down. Otherwise, the output terminal may carry live voltage, presenting an electric shock hazard.
To ensure human safety and normal UPS operation, the UPS must be properly grounded before use.
When the UPS is connected to an IT power distribution system, a short-circuit protection device must be installed on the
neutral line.
Install and use the S4K2UC in the following environments:
♦Temperature: 0°C – 40°C (32°F – 104°F); Relative humidity: 0% – 95%, non-condensing
♦Out of direct sunlight
♦Away from heat sources
♦Stable surface, not subject to vibrations or shocks
♦Away from dust and other particulates
♦Away from corrosive substances, salts and ammable gases
Keep the air inlet and outlet of this UPS unobstructed. Poor ventilation will increase the internal temperature of the UPS and
can adversely aect the UPS and its batteries.
Keep liquid and foreign objects away from the UPS.
In case of re, use a dry chemical re extinguisher to put out the re. Using a uid re extinguisher may cause electric shock.
is UPS is not intended for use with life support and other designated critical devices. Maximum load must not exceed that
shown on the UPS rating label. is UPS is designed for data processing equipment. If uncertain, consult your local dealer or
SolaHD representative.
S4K2UC SERIES USER MANUAL | 7
is UPS is not for use in a computer room as dened in the standard for the Protection of Electronic Computer/Data
Processing Equipment, ANSI/NFPA 75.
e S4K2U3000-C was investigated under 30 A branch circuit in accordance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/
NFPA 70, to reduce the risk of re; connect only a circuit provided with 30 A maximum branch overcurrent protection.
Battery Safety Notes
! CAUTION
Do not dispose of batteries in a re; they may explode. Dispose of used batteries according to local regulations.
Do not open or mutilate the batteries. Released electrolyte is toxic and harmful to skin and eyes. If electrolyte comes into
contact with the skin, wash the aected area immediately and get medical attention.
! CAUTION
A battery can present a risk of electrical shock and high short circuit current. e following precautions should be observed
when working with batteries:
♦Remove watches, rings and other metal objects
♦Use tools with insulated handles
♦Wear rubber gloves and boots
♦Wear protective eye ware (safety glasses)
♦Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries
♦Disconnect charging source prior to connecting or disconnecting battery terminals
♦Determine if the battery is inadvertently grounded. If it is inadvertently grounded, remove the source of the ground.
Contact with any part of a grounded battery can result in electrical shock. e likelihood of such shock will be reduced
if grounds are removed during installation and maintenance (applicable to a UPS and a remote battery supply not
having a grounded supply circuit).
Electromagnetic Compatibility
e S4K2UC complies with the limits for a CLASS A DIGITAL DEVICE, PURSUANT TO Part 15 of FCC rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) is device may not cause harmful interference and (2) is device
must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Operating this device in a
residential area is likely to cause harmful interference that users must correct at their own expense.
e S4K2UC Series complies with the requirements of EMC Directive 2004/108/EC and the published technical standards.
Continued compliance requires installation in accordance with these instructions and use of accessories approved by SolaHD.
Information for the Protection of the Environment
UPS Servicing: e UPS makes use of components dangerous for the environment (electronic cards, electronic components).
e components removed must be taken to specialized collection and disposal centers.

1.0 Product Description
e SolaHD S4K2UC Series is a compact, on-line uninterruptible power system (UPS) that continuously conditions and
regulates its output voltage. It is designed to supply microcomputers and other sensitive equipment with clean sine wave
input power.
Upon generation, ac power is clean and stable. However, during transmission and distribution it is subject to voltage sags,
spikes and complete failure that may interrupt computer operations, cause data loss and damage equipment. e S4K2UC
protects equipment from these disturbances. e S4K2UC continuously charges its batteries from utility power, enabling it to
supply power to connected loads even when utility power fails.
is sections describes the UPS, its features, models, appearance and components, operating principles and operating mode.
1.1 Features
♦Intelligent battery management to extend the battery life
♦Operation and display panel with LED for monitoring load percentage and battery capacity independently
♦Flexible network management with MultiLink™ software
♦Fan fault self-inspection and automated diagnostic function
♦Intelligent fan operation, automatically changing rotation speed depending on system requirements to decrease power
consumption and noise
♦Input circuit breaker to ease recovery from overloads
♦Safety approval from UL and cUL
♦Communication options: USB port, IntelliSlot® port and terminal block communication
♦Dry contacts for remote monitoring
♦Input power factor greater than 0.99
♦Output voltage selection function using the conguration software
