2 – Important Safety Instructions (continued)

Battery Warnings

•The UPS system does not require routine maintenance. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Only qualified service personnel should open the access panels for any reason.

•Batteries present a risk of electrical shock and burns from high short-circuit current. Battery connection or replacement should be performed only by qualified service personnel, observing proper precautions. Turn off the UPS system before connecting or disconnecting internal batteries. Use tools with insulated handles. Do not open the batteries. Do not short or bridge the battery terminals with any object.

•Replace batteries with equivalent batteries available from Tripp Lite. Do not operate the UPS system without batteries.

•The batteries are recyclable. Refer to local codes for disposal requirements.

•Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire, mutilate the batteries or open the battery coverings.

•Battery fuses should be replaced by qualified service personnel only. Blown fuses must be replaced with the same number and type of fuses.

•Potentially lethal voltages exist within the UPS system as long as the battery supply is connected. Service and repair should be performed by trained personnel only, while the UPS system is turned off or placed into bypass mode. Disconnect internal batteries (if present) before performing any service work by switching off the internal battery circuit breaker and removing the battery fuse(s). Disconnect external batteries (if present) by switching off the external battery cabinet breaker and disconnecting the external battery cabling from the UPS system.

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

•Do not remove the plastic sleeves covering internal batteries.

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

•Before connecting an external battery cabinet to the UPS system, read the external battery cabinet’s documentation. Use only external battery cabinets that have been approved by Tripp Lite.

•If the UPS system remains off for an extended period of time, it should be turned on periodically to allow the batteries to recharge. The UPS system should be turned on and the batteries should be recharged at least one uninterrupted 24-hour period every 3 months. Failure to recharge the batteries periodically may cause irreversible battery damage.

SU80K specifications

The Tripp Lite SU80K is a robust and reliable uninterruptible power supply (UPS) solution, designed to provide essential backup power to critical equipment in various environments such as data centers, telecommunications, and industrial settings. This high-capacity UPS offers 80 kVA of power, ensuring optimal protection for vital systems against power interruptions and fluctuations.

One of the main features of the SU80K is its advanced double-conversion technology, which provides clean and consistent power by converting incoming AC power to DC and then back to AC. This process not only isolates connected equipment from raw utility power, but it also ensures that sensitive electronic devices maintain a steady voltage and frequency, ultimately enhancing their performance and lifespan.

In terms of efficiency, the SU80K is equipped with an energy-efficient design that maximizes operation while minimizing energy consumption. The unit operates with an efficiency rating of up to 97% in online mode, which contributes to reduced operational costs over time and is especially beneficial for large-scale deployments.

Another notable characteristic of the SU80K is its modular design, which allows for flexibility and scalability. Users can add additional battery packs to extend runtime, enabling the UPS to adapt to changing power needs without requiring complete system replacement. This feature is particularly advantageous for growing businesses that need to expand their backup power capabilities progressively.

The SU80K also includes advanced monitoring and management options, with an optional network management card that enables remote monitoring via a web interface. This capability provides real-time data on the UPS’s status, battery health, and load levels, allowing IT administrators to make informed decisions to maintain system availability.

Additionally, the UPS features multiple communication ports, including RS-232 and USB interfaces, ensuring compatibility with various devices and ease of integration into existing systems. It also supports SNMP protocols, allowing for seamless integration with network management systems.

Overall, the Tripp Lite SU80K combines high performance, advanced features, and user-friendly management options to create an ideal solution for businesses that require reliable and efficient power protection for their critical equipment. With its strong build quality and commitment to performance, the SU80K stands out as a versatile choice for ensuring business continuity in the face of power disturbances.
