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.
Tripp Lite has a policy of continuous improvement. Specifications are subject to change without notice.
