How to install Vertiv Liebert PSI5 UPS

Installing the PSI5 is designed to be straightforward, with deployment options that fit compact racks and tight workspaces. Here are practical steps to get you protected quickly and correctly:

• Plan placement: choose a cool, ventilated location away from heat sources and moisture. If you’re mounting in a rack, ensure there is clearance for airflow and easy access to outlets and the NIC port.
• Mount or position: for rack installations, secure the unit using the provided rails or mounting hardware. If you prefer a tower setup, place the UPS on a stable surface with ample ventilation to prevent overheating.
• Connect loads: plug critical devices (servers, switches, NAS, DVRs, etc.) into the UPS outlets. Avoid overloading; distribute the load across outlets to maintain adequate runtime for essential equipment.
• Establish management connection: install the NIC, connect the UPS to your network, and configure the management software or SNMP settings. This enables proactive alerts, remote monitoring, and scheduled shutdowns when needed.
• Power up and test: connect the UPS to a dedicated AC outlet, power on, and run a self-test. Verify that connected devices continue to operate during a simulated outage and that automatic shutdowns occur gracefully if power is lost.
