Select battery packs have a 175-amp polarized  
A
plug  
on an output cord permanently connected  
to the rear panel. Simply plug the output cord  
directly into the external battery connector of  
your UPS. (See your UPS manual for external  
battery connector description and location.)  
Additional battery packs can be added if an  
output jack is present.  
To connect multiple Battery Packs to a single  
UPS for greatly increased runtime, connect  
the output of the first Battery Pack to the  
UPS’s external battery connector, then “daisy  
chain” the others: connect an input/output  
plug on the second Battery Pack to an  
input/output plug on the first, a plug on third  
to a plug on the second and so on. Note that  
multiple Battery Pack arrays will provide  
longer runtimes, but will also require longer  
recharge times.

Maintenance  
Rackmount Battery Packs require no maintenance but should be kept dry at all times. Avoid  
installation in locations with high heat and/or humidity. The Battery Pack(s) should be kept  
fully charged by being connected to an active UPS system, not left in a depleted condition.  
Batteries left in a discharged state will suffer a permanent loss of capacity.  
Troubleshooting  
There is a fuse array inside the Battery Packs. If a heavy overload or short circuit is encountered,  
a fuse will open (blow). A Battery Pack with a blown fuse will deliver no output voltage at any  
load. A qualified technician must replace the fuses. Contact Tripp Lite Customer Support for  
additional information.  
Internal Battery Replacement  
The batteries in the Battery Packs will eventually wear out and be unable to provide adequate  
backup times. The batteries should only be replaced by factory authorized service personnel.  
Tripp Lite offers an exchange program for North American customers wherein they may  
exchange worn-out Battery Packs for new ones at a price comparable to the cost of individual  
battery replacement. For more details, call Tripp Lite at (773) 869-1234.  
Storage  
Disconnect your Battery Pack’s power cable before storing. If you plan to store your Battery Pack  
for an extended period of time, fully recharge its batteries every three months by connecting it  
to a UPS that is connected to AC input for 4-6 hours.  
Service  
If returning your Battery Pack to Tripp Lite for service, please pack it carefully in its ORIGINAL  
PACKING MATERIAL that came with the unit. Enclose a letter describing the symptoms of your  
problem. If the UPS is within the 2-year warranty period, enclose a copy of your sales receipt.
