1. Introduzione
This manual provides essential instructions for the safe and efficient operation of your Minuteman ED10KTF Endeavor Series 10000VA Double Conversion True Sine Wave Online Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS). The ED10KTF is designed to provide clean, stable, and reliable power protection for critical equipment, ensuring continuous operation during power fluctuations or outages.
Please read this manual thoroughly before installation and operation to ensure proper usage and to prevent damage to the unit or connected equipment. Keep this manual for future reference.
Precauzioni di sicurezza
- Non aprire l'UPS casing. All'interno non sono presenti parti riparabili dall'utente. Per qualsiasi intervento di assistenza, rivolgersi a personale qualificato.
- Assicurarsi che l'UPS sia collegato a una presa di corrente con messa a terra.
- Do not block ventilation openings. Maintain adequate clearance around the UPS for proper airflow.
- Avoid operating the UPS in environments with excessive dust, humidity, or extreme temperatures.
- Scollegare l'UPS dalla fonte di alimentazione prima di eseguire qualsiasi operazione di manutenzione o pulizia.
2. Impostazione
2.1 Disimballaggio
Carefully unpack the UPS and inspect it for any shipping damage. If any damage is found, do not install the unit and contact your dealer immediately. Retain the original packaging for future transport or storage.
2.2 Posizionamento
Place the UPS in a clean, dry, and well-ventilated area. Ensure the ambient temperature is within the specified operating range (typically 0°C to 40°C). Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources. Maintain at least 20 cm (8 inches) of clearance around the front, back, and sides of the unit for proper ventilation.
2.3 Connessioni
- Connessione alimentazione in ingresso: Connect the UPS input power cord to a dedicated, grounded electrical outlet. Ensure the voltage matches the UPS input requirements (208-240V).
- Collegamento del dispositivo di output: Connect your critical equipment to the output receptacles on the rear panel of the UPS. Do not overload the UPS beyond its rated capacity.
- Porte di comunicazione (facoltative): If applicable, connect communication cables (e.g., USB, RS-232, network card) to the appropriate ports for monitoring and management.

2.4 Accensione iniziale
After all connections are secure, press and hold the power button on the front panel for a few seconds until the UPS powers on. The LCD display will illuminate, and the UPS will perform a self-test. Allow the UPS to charge its batteries for at least 8 hours before connecting critical loads to ensure maximum runtime capability.
3. Istruzioni per l'uso
3.1 Display LCD finitoview
The front panel LCD display provides real-time status information, including input/output voltage, livello della batteria, percentuale di caricotage, operating mode, and alarm conditions. Use the navigation buttons (if present) to cycle through different display screens and access settings.
3.2 Accensione/spegnimento
- Per accendere: Press and hold the power button until the LCD display illuminates and the UPS starts.
- Per spegnere: Press and hold the power button until the UPS shuts down. Ensure all connected equipment is safely powered off before shutting down the UPS.
3.3 Operating Modes and Indicators
The ED10KTF operates in Double Conversion Online mode, providing continuous, clean sine wave power. The LCD will indicate the current operating status, such as:
- Modalità normale: UPS is operating from utility power, charging batteries, and providing conditioned power to loads.
- Modalità batteria: UPS is operating from battery power due to utility power failure. An audible alarm will typically sound.
- Modalità bypass: UPS is supplying utility power directly to the load, bypassing the inverter. This can occur during maintenance or internal fault conditions.
- Fault/Alarm: Indicates an internal issue or an abnormal operating condition. Refer to the troubleshooting section.
3.4 Caratteristiche principali
- Double Conversion True Sine Wave Output: Provides the highest level of power protection by continuously converting AC to DC and then back to AC, isolating connected equipment from utility power disturbances and delivering a pure sine wave output.
- Autonomia estesa: Offers significant backup time, typically 3 minutes at full load (9000W) and 9 minutes at half load (4500W), to allow for graceful shutdown or generator startup.
- Automatic Internal and Independent Battery Bypass: Ensures uninterrupted power to connected devices even during UPS maintenance or internal failures by automatically switching to bypass mode.
4. Manutenzione
4.1 Cura e sostituzione della batteria
The UPS batteries are designed for a specific lifespan. Factors like ambient temperature and discharge frequency can affect battery life. It is recommended to perform a battery self-test periodically (if available via LCD or software) to assess battery health. When batteries reach the end of their service life, they should be replaced by qualified personnel. Always use genuine replacement batteries specified by the manufacturer.
4.2 Pulizia
Ensure the UPS is powered off and disconnected from the AC input before cleaning. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the exterior of the unit. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners, as they may contain flammable substances or cause electrical shock.
4.3 Considerazioni ambientali
Operating the UPS within its specified temperature and humidity ranges will prolong its lifespan and ensure optimal performance. Avoid exposing the unit to direct sunlight, excessive heat, or moisture.
5. Risoluzione Dei Problemi
This section provides solutions to common issues you may encounter with your UPS. If the problem persists after attempting these solutions, contact technical support.
| Problema | Possibile causa | Soluzione |
