Troubleshooting, Maintenance, Storage

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.

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 Packs 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.

INTERNAL BATTERY REPLACEMENT

The batteries in the Battery Packs will eventually wear out and be unable to provide adequate backup times.
