Operating Manual LP 33 Series 30 & 40 kVA 

 

 
 

When used properly, the LP 33 Series UPS is virtually maintenance free. 

Take care of proper environmental conditions (see Installation Guide - Section 3.5 – Ventilation & Cooling) 

and keep air inlets/outlets free from dust and any other obstacle. 
 
 

 
 

The expected operational life of the cooling fans is approximately 40.000 hours of continuous 

operation. 

A high ambient temperature will shorten this operational life. 
 
 

The service life of the battery is from 3 to 6 years, depending on the operating temperature and on the 
number of discharge cycles. 
 

The UPS LP 33 Series offers the possibility of SBM (Superior Battery Management). 
The function SBM can be activated through a service Parameter. 
The functionality of SBM reduces the Battery recharging time together with improved lifetime of the 

Battery. 
 

As a healthy battery is essential to the performance of the UPS, an automatic or manual battery test 
can be performed regularly to ensure failsafe operation, in order to check if the battery can provide the 

expected backup time in case of mains failure. 
We recommend the battery test be performed at least every 1 month, especially if the battery is not 
sufficiently discharged during normal operation. 
Since the parameter enabling the battery test protected by user password, please contact your Service 
Center for more information. 

 

Please consider that, if you did a full battery test to verify the full runtime of the battery, the charger 
needs at least 8 hours to recharge the battery up to 90% of its capacity. 

 

To guarantee that the battery is fully charged, the UPS system should be in operation for at least 12 

hours every 3 months. 

 

When the condition of the battery is critical, the warning signal will be activated (general alarm, buzzer 
and alarm message “4118 - Battery fault”). 

In this case the battery must be replaced as soon as possible. 
Please contact your Service Center.
