B “BATTERY” LED: This amber light illuminates when the UPS system is in battery backup mode, discharging the batteries to provide power to connected equipment. An audible alarm will also sound.

C “BYPASS” LED: This amber light illuminates when the UPS system is in bypass mode (auto bypass or manual bypass). Battery backup power will not be available to connected equipment while the UPS system is in bypass mode, but connected equipment loads will be supported by the bypass power source.

D “FAULT” LED: This red light illuminates when any UPS system or input power fault occurs. Available diagnostic information will be displayed on the LCD screen.

E LCD Status Screen: This illuminated LCD status screen displays text and graphics to indicate a wide range of UPS system operating conditions and diagnostic data. Note: The LCD backlight will turn off after 10 minutes of inactivity. Turn on the backlight by momentarily pressing the ON button or one of the scroll buttons.

F “ESC” (Escape) Button: Press this button to return to the previous page or menu.

G Scroll Buttons ( and ): Press these buttons to move the cursor up or down and navigate the control panel menus and screens. These buttons are also used for data entry in several screens.

H Enter Button ( ): Press this button to select a menu item or confirm a setting change.

I ON Button: Press and hold this button for 3 seconds to turn the UPS system’s inverter ON.

J OFF Button: Press and hold this button for 3 seconds to turn the UPS system’s inverter OFF. If the UPS system is in online (normal) mode, it will switch to auto bypass mode. Note: If the UPS system remains off for an extended period of time, the batteries should be recharged periodically. 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.

K “EPO” (Emergency Power Off) Button: Press this button to turn the UPS system’s output OFF and also disable bypass output.

If the UPS system is in battery backup mode when the EPO button is activated:

Main output and bypass output are turned off, the alarm sounds, fans shut down after approximately one minute, and control circuitry remains active.

Releasing the EPO button (by pressing it again) turns off the UPS system completely, including the alarm and control circuit. Press the ON button for 3 seconds to restart the UPS system.

If the UPS system is in online (normal) mode when the EPO button is activated:

• Main output and bypass output are turned off, the alarm sounds, fans and control circuitry remain active.

 

• Releasing the EPO button (by pressing it again) turns off the alarm and places the UPS system in auto bypass mode. Press the ON button

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.
