INTRODUCTION
Tripp Lite BP Series External Battery Packs have output voltages of either 36 volts (BP36VXR,
BP36V33, BP36V27) or 24 volts (BP24V33) and are designed for use with various Tripp Lite UPS
systems equipped with external battery pack connectors that are color-coded Red (24 volt) or Grey
(36 volt). When used with the appropriate Tripp Lite UPS, they meet UL standard 1778.
GENERAL BATTERY PACK INFORMATION
The batteries in the BP Series Battery Packs will eventually wear out and be unable to provide
adequate backup times. The batteries used in the Battery Packs should only be replaced by factory
authorized service personnel.
Batteries are shipped charged. Because batteries present a risk of electrical shock and burn
from high short-circuit current, observe proper precautions. Use tools with insulated
handles. Remove metal objects such as watches and rings before working with batteries.
Never bridge battery terminals or allow objects to contact battery terminals: serious injury
could result. Confirm that the item to be powered is of the same voltage as the battery pack
(36V or 24V, depending on model) before connecting to battery pack. Sparks may result
during final battery connection. Replace batteries only with sealed lead-acid batteries of the
same number, type, voltage and amp hour. The batteries are recyclable. Proper disposal
of batteries is required; refer to your local codes for disposal requirements. In the USA only,
you may call 1-800-SAV-LEAD (1-800-728-5323) for complete recycling information.
Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire. Do not open the batteries. A risk of electrical shock
can be present with the batteries. Do not short or bridge the battery terminals with any object.
Do not open the Battery Pack for any reason. There are no user-serviceable parts inside the
battery pack.
INSTALLATION
BP Series Battery Packs are compact units shipped with the batteries installed for quick, easy
installation.
Stacking Battery Packs
All the BP Series Battery Packs except the BP36V27 are stackable. Indents on the top cover of each
stackable Battery Pack mate with the feet of other Battery Packs as they are stacked.
DO NOT stack the battery packs more than two (2) high. Use caution when lifting the
Battery Packs. Because of the considerable weight of all BP Series Battery Packs [BP36VXR:
185 lb. (84 kg.); BP36V33: 88 lb. (40 kg.); BP36V27: 58 lb. (26 kg.); BP24V33: 66 lb. (30
kg.)], at least two people should assist in lifting them. Because the Battery Packs will be
held from the bottom when lifting, care should be taken when setting them down to avoid
injury. Make sure the surface where the packs are installed is level and strong enough to
support the combined weight of the Battery Packs and the UPS.
