Adding or Replacing Internal Batteries
DANGER!
POTENTIALLY LETHAL HIGH VOLTAGE! FOR QUALIFIED ELECTRICIANS ONLY!
Follow all safety precautions in the Safety section before adding or replacing internal batteries.
DANGER!
DO NOT REMOVE BATTERY SLEEVE!
Do not remove the plastic sleeve covering the battery strings.The sleeve is designed to prevent accidental
contact with the terminals on the individual batteries. Contact with the terminals will create a potential for
serious injury or death from lethal high voltage. Do not allow tools or other metal objects to come in contact
with the terminals.
CAUTION!
BATTERY PACKS ARE HEAVY!
Use assistants as needed.
WARNING!
CHECK BATTERY PACK VOLTAGE BEFORE COMPLETING INSTALLATION
Do not install battery packs with DC voltages outside the acceptable range. (They may compromise battery
backup capabilities).
NOTE!
Each battery pack consists of two strings of batteries: one string with a BLACK cable and one string with a RED cable.
The batteries are designed for hot-swap replacement, which allows connected equipment to continually receive AC mains power (but not battery backup
support in the event of a blackout) during the battery installation procedure. See “Operation of Manual Bypass Switch” in the Operation section.
Although the batteries can be hot-swapped, qualified service personnel may want to completely turn the UPS off during battery installation. See
“Turning the UPS Off” in the Operation section.
Internal battery packs must be replaced by equivalent batteries available from Tripp Lite. Adding battery packs will increase recharge time. Individual
models may vary slightly from diagrams.
