UPS noise

I've just got a new 600 kva UPS. However it makes a terrible squealing noise; really loud and high pitched and piercing.

I've got it in its own cabinet, but the noise is still a problem.

The seller says that this is normal, but it's really annoying.
 
600kva will sound like hell. 600va shouldn't, and most don't even have active cooling at that rating.

You can hear the squealing behind the background fans. Note that this is down the hallway with the door closed.
