noob question on air units

[BillP]

Bit new to this.

What is the best practice on connecting cooling units to power.

I have just recently bought some equipment used, and a little confused on some connections.

I have (2) ACSC100 in row cooling units, in question.

Also have a Symmetra LX UPS. Do the air units normally power directly from an electrical panel or from the UPS? thanks.

Hello. Air cooled units like the ACSC100 are usually connected to utility power (electrical panel) NOT a UPS. This is because the compressor will pull a lot of amps when it starts up and will overload a ups.

Thank you
