Important Safety Warnings

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS! This owner's manual contains important instructions and warnings that must be followed during the installation and operation of SURBC2030 Internal Battery Packs. The owner's manuals included with compatible products (UPS systems and battery module compartments) include additional safety instructions that must be followed during installation and operation. Failure to heed these instructions may cause permanent damage to the UPS system (voiding its warranty) and create a potential for serious personal injury or death from lethal high voltage.

• Do not use Tripp Lite UPS Systems or Internal Battery Packs in life support applications in which a malfunction or failure of a Tripp Lite UPS System or Internal Battery Pack could cause failure or significantly alter the performance of a life support device.

• The UPS system contains its own energy source (battery). The output terminals may be live even when the UPS is not connected to an AC supply.

• Your UPS does not require routine maintenance. Do not open the UPS's power module for any reason; there are no user-serviceable parts inside. Because of the risk of electrical shock, only qualified electricians should open the battery module.

• Because the batteries present a risk of electrical shock and burn from high short-circuit current, batteries should be changed only by trained service personnel observing proper precautions. Remove watches, rings, and other metal objects. Use tools with insulated handles. Wear rubber gloves and boots. Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of the batteries. Do not short or bridge the battery terminals with any object.

• Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire. The UPS batteries are recyclable. Refer to local codes for disposal requirements, or in the USA only, refer to these sources for recycling information: 1-800-SAV-LEAD (1-800-728-5323), 1-800-8-BATTERY (1-800-8-228-8379), or www.rbrc.com.

• Internal batteries must be replaced by equivalent batteries available from Tripp Lite.

• Do not operate your UPS without batteries.

• Battery fuses should be replaced only by factory authorized personnel. Blown fuses should be replaced only with fuses of the same number and type.

• Potentially lethal voltages exist within this unit as long as the battery supply is connected. Service and repair should be done only by trained personnel. During any service work, the UPS should be turned off or put into manual bypass.

• Do not connect or disconnect the battery modules while the UPS is operating from the battery supply or when the unit is not in bypass mode.

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 of the UPS System’s owner’s manual. 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 of the UPS System’s owner’s manual.

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.

INTERNAL BATTERY PACK WIRING DIAGRAM

Qualified service personnel should familiarize themselves with the battery pack wiring diagram prior to adding or replacing batteries. The battery module can accept up to four battery packs (each pack consisting of two strings). The diagram shows all four battery packs connected for illustrative purposes only. The actual number of batteries shipped with the UPS System varies depending on model number.

Adding or Replacing Internal Batteries

(continued)

Place the UPS System in Bypass Mode or completely turn it off, depending on preference. See “Operation of Manual Bypass Switch” or “Turning the UPS Off” in the Operation section of the UPS System’s owner’s manual.

Remove battery access panel, located on the FRONT of the UPS system.

Disconnect the RED and BLACK cables attached to each internal battery pack.

Remove the battery cartridge fuses from each fuse block. Save the fuses.

Disconnect the BLUE and WHITE jumper cables attached to each fuse block.

CAUTION!

When disconnecting the jumper cables, pull them straight away from the fuse block with even force. Do not wiggle them side-to-side, as this may damage the connector.

Remove the fuse block bracket.

Slide the battery string with the RED cable into an empty slot within the battery compartment as shown. Make sure that the string is oriented as shown in the diagram .

NOTE: If the auxiliary battery connector is in the way, remove its mounting screw and position the cable to allow adequate room to add the battery strings .

TERMINALS

Slide the battery string with the BLACK cable next to it (on the left) in the empty slot as shown. Make sure that the string is oriented as shown in the diagram .

Replace the fuse block bracket. Make sure printing on bracket is oriented so it is readable.

Adding or Replacing Internal Batteries

(continued)

DANGER!

BATTERY CARTRIDGE FUSES MUST BE INSERTED LAST DUE TO THE DANGER OF POTENTIAL ARCING OF CONNECTORS.

FUSE REPLA

CEMENT

The fuses protect against short circuit damage. If a heavy overload or short circuit is encountered, a fuse will blow. A battery pack with a blown fuse will not deliver any output voltage to the UPS system.

DANGER!

The fuses must be replaced by a qualified electrician. To reduce the risk of fire, replace only with fuses of the same type or rating (ULrecognized 30A 600VDC rated cartridge fuses).

Use a voltmeter (user-supplied) to test the voltage of the battery pack. Observe proper polarity: connect the voltmeter's BLACK probe to the battery pack's BLACK connector; connect the voltmeter's RED probe to the battery pack's RED connector. To get a proper reading, make sure the voltmeter's probes touch the metal contacts inside the battery pack's connectors. The battery pack's Acceptable DC Voltage Range is between 220 and 280V DC. If several attempts at voltmeter tests yield results outside this range, contact Tripp Lite for assistance in determining the possible causes of the incorrect voltage reading.

Connect the BLUE and WHITE jumper cables on each internal battery pack to its corresponding fuse block. See printing next to fuse block to locate the correct fuse block for each cable.

Insert the battery cartridge fuses into each fuse block. The fuses are identical, and can be inserted into any of the blocks. Make sure that the fuses are firmly snapped into place.

Adding or Replacing Internal Batteries

(continued)

Connect the BLACK cable for each internal battery pack to the nearest BLACK connector located inside the UPS system's battery module.

Connect the RED cable for each internal battery pack to the nearest RED connector located inside the UPS system's battery module.

Replace the battery access panel.

Return the UPS System to Normal Mode or completely turn it on, depending on the procedure you followed in step 1. See “Operation of Manual Bypass Switch” or “Turning the UPS On” in the Operation section of the UPS System’s owner’s manual.
