CMC Series Outdoor Cabinets Installation and Maintenance Guide

Warnings
This section contains important warnings. Read these warnings before installing or operating
the CMC Series Outdoor Cabinets.


Electrical Safety
The dc power system may be powered from multiple ac sources. All ac sources must be isolated before
internally servicing the equipment.
A registered electrician (or suitably qualified person) must check the integrity of the installed cabling,
BEFORE the dc power system is powered up.
Tasks must be performed in the sequence documented in this guide.


Location and Environment
For ease of access and to maintain optimum system cooling, observe the clearances stated on page 20.
VRLA lead acid batteries can emit explosive gases and must be installed with adequate ventilation.
Ensure that the air vents for the CMC Series batteries are never blocked.


Reverse Polarity
Always check that the battery cables have been terminated to the correct system polarity BEFORE
connecting the batteries or closing the battery disconnect device. Connecting batteries to the dc power
system with incorrect system polarity will damage the rectifiers and void all warranty claims.


Hazardous Energy Levels
Rectifiers and batteries contain hazardous energy levels. Only personnel trained and experienced in dc
power systems are to service/maintain this equipment.
Always use insulated tools.
Do not short-circuit the live and common bus bars or cables.


Batteries
The plastic cases of batteries installed in Eaton dc power system racks must have a flammability rating of
UL 94-V2 or better.
Flooded cell and VRLA lead acid batteries can emit explosive gases and must be installed with adequate
ventilation. Refer to the battery manufacturer or supplier for advice on minimum ventilation levels.
Do not wear a synthetic dust-coat or overalls. Synthetic fabrics can hold static electric charges that create
sparks during discharge.
Remove rings, wristwatch and other metal jewelry that might be exposed to battery terminals, before
installing batteries.
Batteries are powerful sources of energy and present a potential electrical shock and energy hazard. The
energy hazard is always present, even if the batteries are not connected. Avoid short circuiting terminals
of opposite polarity.
Always use insulated tools.
Do not place tools, loose cables or metal objects (such as interconnecting bars) on top of batteries.
Do not drop tools, loose cables or metal objects onto intercell connections or terminals of opposite
polarity.
Only terminate cables and interconnecting bars after confirming that the termination will not create a
short circuit.
Always tighten battery terminal bolts according to the battery manufacturer’s specification. Failing to do
so can cause erratic battery performance, possible damage to the battery, and/or personal injury.
There is a risk of electric shock or explosion if a battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
Dispose of batteries according to the instructions on page 44.

slots with blanking panels.
To avoid electrical shock, do not place hands inside the rectifier magazine.
Rectifier cases may exceed 100ºC (212ºF), especially after prolonged operation. Use suitable gloves when
removing a rectifier from the magazine.
Do not attempt to disassemble faulty rectifiers. Return them (in their original packaging) with a
completed Equipment Incident Report on page 51.
Ensure that any upstream Residual Current Devices (RCDs) are appropriately rated for the rectifiers'
maximum earth leakage current (see Specifications on page 49 for value).


DC Distribution(s)
The dc common bus of the dc power system can be connected to earth (ground). If this connection is
made all of the following conditions must be met:
Your equipment and the dc power system must be located within the same premises.
No switching or disconnecting devices are allowed in the conductor between the dc common line
and the point of connection to the earth electrode conductor.
Follow all applicable local and national rules and regulations when making field connections.
Tighten all electrical connections to the torques stated in this guide or on the manufacturer's label.


Servicing and Maintenance
The CMC Series contains hazardous voltages and hazardous energy levels. Before undertaking any
maintenance task refer to the Warnings on page 16.
If a maintenance task must be performed on a "live" system then take all necessary precautions to avoid
short-circuits or disconnection of the load equipment, and follow any "live-working" instructions
applicable to the site.
Only perform the maintenance tasks described in the Maintenance chapter. All other tasks are classified
as Servicing. Servicing must only be performed according to specific instructions and only by personnel
authorized by Eaton. This includes disassembly and/or servicing of any modules.

details on page 53.


EMC Compliance
This dc power system may be used in close proximity to other electronic equipment, provided
installation is carried out according to instructions in this guide. However, proper installation and
compliance with EMC standards does not guarantee that the dc power system will not respond to
electromagnetic disturbances, or will not cause interference to other equipment in a particular
installation.
In a domestic environment this product may cause radio interference in which case the user may be
required to take adequate measures.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However,
there is no guarantee that the interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment
does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.

Task 3 - Install Batteries


The following are recommended Battery Installation Practices. These supplement any specific
installation instructions from the battery manufacturer.

General
Do not wear a synthetic dust-coat or overalls. Synthetic fabrics can hold a static electric
charge, creating sparks during discharge.
Remove rings, wristwatch and other metal jewelry that might be exposed to battery
terminals, before installing batteries.
Only use a clean soft damp cloth for cleaning the batteries. Do not use cleaning detergents
or chemicals.
Flooded cell and VRLA lead acid batteries can emit explosive gases and must be installed
with adequate ventilation. Refer to the battery manufacturer or supplier for advice on
minimum ventilation levels.
Ensure that the battery strings are disconnected from the dc power system, by switching off
all battery circuit breakers or removing all battery fuses.

Unpacking and Inspecting the Batteries


Unpack the batteries and inspect them carefully for leaks, corrosion and possible damage.
Report any damage or other battery related problems immediately to the battery supplier.
Do not remove the factory-fitted transit insulation covers from the batteries until access to
the battery terminals is required.

Connecting the Batteries


Only terminate battery cables and interconnecting bars after confirming that the
termination will not create a short circuit.
Always use insulated tools.
Always tighten battery terminal bolts according to the battery manufacturer’s specification.
Failing to do so can cause erratic battery performance, possible damage to the batteries,
and/or personal injury.
Do not place tools, loose cables, or metal objects (such as interconnecting bars) on top of
batteries.
Do not drop tools, loose cables, or metal objects onto intercell connections or terminals of
opposite polarity.
Check that loose cables cannot make contact with other cables or terminals which may be
live.
