Tripp Lite by Eaton SV-Series External Battery Pack for 3-Phase UPS — Runtime Extension Cabinet (No Batteries Included)

The Tripp Lite by Eaton SV-Series UPS Battery Pack is built to dramatically extend uptime for your SV-Series 3-Phase UPS systems. This external battery cabinet serves as a scalable runtime extension, allowing data centers, network closets, and critical facilities to protect against outages without replacing the core UPS. Designed for government and commercial procurement, this unit carries TAA and GSA compliance, ensuring ease of acquisition for projects with strict sourcing requirements. Note that batteries are not included; the cabinet is intended to be filled with 20 user-supplied CSB HRL12500W sealed lead-acid cells (or equivalent) to achieve the desired runtime.

• Compatibility and scalability: Specifically engineered to integrate with Tripp Lite SV-Series 3-Phase UPS systems, this external battery pack supports modular expansion of runtime. As your workload or tolerance for power interruption changes, you can add capacity without replacing the main UPS. This scalable approach is ideal for evolving data-center footprints, server rooms, and critical infrastructure where continuous availability is non-negotiable.
• No batteries included: This cabinet ships empty by design. To complete the system and realize extended runtime, you will supply 20 CSB HRL12500W sealed lead-acid batteries (or an equivalent) per your capacity planning. By separating the cabinet from the batteries, you gain purchasing flexibility and the option to refresh cells over time without changing the cabinet hardware.
• Extended runtime for outage protection: When tied to your SV-Series UPS, the external battery cabinet increases runtime during power outages, granting more time to safely shut down or to maintain critical loads until power is restored. This is particularly valuable for preserving business continuity, protecting data, and preventing unscheduled downtime in environments with sensitive equipment and high availability requirements.
• Certified and compliant: The unit is designed to meet TAA and GSA procurement standards, making it suitable for government agencies, universities, and other public-sector organizations. The combination of enterprise-grade reliability and regulatory compliance helps streamline purchasing processes and audits.
• Easy installation and integration: The external cabinet is configured to pair seamlessly with the SV-Series UPS ecosystem. With a straightforward installation process and clear wiring paths, it plugs into your existing UPS setup to deliver a cohesive, scalable power protection solution. The design emphasizes serviceability, allowing maintenance teams to add or replace batteries with minimal downtime.

How to Install the Tripp Lite SV-Series Battery Pack

• Prepare the installation area: Ensure a clean, dry, and well-ventilated space with enough clearance around the cabinet for maintenance access. Follow all local electrical codes and safety procedures before handling batteries or power equipment.
• Position the cabinet: Place the external battery cabinet near the SV-Series UPS while maintaining proper distance from heat sources and ensuring stable mounting. Verify that cabling pathways comply with facility standards and that there is no obstruction to ventilation or service access.
• Install the batteries: In the cabinet, install 20 CSB HRL12500W sealed lead-acid batteries (or an equivalent) according to the manufacturer’s guidelines. Use appropriate battery trays, secure the cells, and observe correct polarity to avoid misconnection.
• Connect to the UPS: Connect the battery cabinet to the SV-Series UPS DC input according to the system’s installation manual. Ensure all DC cables are properly seated, with tight terminals and correct polarity. Route cables to minimize strain and protect against accidental disconnection.
• Power-up and verify: After confirming all connections are secure, power on the UPS and cabinet. Run a controlled test to verify that the extended runtime is recognized by the UPS and that alarms and status indicators reflect proper operation. Document the configuration for maintenance records and conduct periodic tests to ensure continued reliability.

Frequently asked questions

• Do batteries come with this unit? No. The external battery cabinet ships without batteries. You will need to supply 20 CSB HRL12500W sealed lead-acid batteries (or an equivalent) to complete the runtime extension.
• What is the benefit of adding this battery pack? Extending runtime on SV-Series 3-Phase UPS systems provides longer protection against outages, giving administrators more time to safely shut down or to maintain critical loads during a power interruption. It also allows for more flexible maintenance windows and improved resilience for mission-critical equipment.
• Is this cabinet suitable for government procurement? Yes. The unit is TAA and GSA compliant, making it appropriate for public-sector projects and government purchasing channels.
• How does runtime scale with the battery cabinet? Runtime scales with the number and capacity of batteries installed. The 20-cell configuration with HRL12500W batteries is designed to deliver a practical increase in runtime for typical SV-Series loads, but exact figures depend on load, inverter efficiency, and ambient conditions.
• Can I replace batteries without removing the cabinet? In most cases, batteries can be replaced or refreshed through the cabinet’s serviceable design. Always follow safety procedures and disconnect power before servicing, and consult the manufacturer’s instructions for battery replacement intervals and best practices.
