How to install APC by Schneider Electric Galaxy VS 25kVA Tower UPS

Prepare the site with adequate clearance and ventilation to ensure proper airflow around the tower and battery modules. Position the UPS on a level, rigid surface capable of supporting the full weight of the unit and any additional battery cabinets. Verify electrical room credentials, including proper grounding, surge protection, and clear access to service panels. Begin with a detailed installation checklist that covers: routing of input and output cables, mounting of any expansion modules, and integration with existing IT equipment.

Install the UPS in a dedicated space to isolate it from excessive dust, humidity, and heat. Connect three‑phase input conductors to the appropriate mains disconnect according to local electrical codes, ensuring correct phase balance and secure terminations. Attach the three‑phase output cables to the critical loads, such as servers, storage, and networking equipment, following the recommended load distribution. Attach and configure battery cabinets if runtime is required, aligning battery modules with the tower base and securing connections per the manufacturer’s guidelines. Use the included management interface to initialize the UPS, run a self‑test, and verify communication with the monitoring system.

Configure the UPS for regional voltage, frequency, and protection settings. Activate any available energy‑saving modes or ECO features to maximize efficiency without compromising power quality. Implement redundancy planning by enabling N+X configurations where supported, and verify battery health through the built‑in health checks or EcoStruxure IT monitoring tools. Finally, perform a formal commissioning procedure: confirm audible alarms, verify firmware versions, document serial numbers and locations, and train on basic operational tasks and safety procedures. After commissioning, set up ongoing monitoring, alert thresholds, remote access, and scheduled maintenance windows to ensure sustained reliability.
