Eaton Tripp Lite Series 48V Extended Battery Module (EBM) for 750VA, 1000VA and 1500VA SmartPro UPS Systems, 2U Rack/Tower

The BP48VRM2U 48V Extended Battery Module is engineered to dramatically extend the runtime of compatible Eaton Tripp Lite SmartPro UPS systems. When power reliability is critical—data centers, server rooms, networking closets, or small to mid-size offices—an EBM provides a practical, scalable solution to keep critical equipment running during outages or voltage sags. This 2U rack/tower design is purpose-built for flexible deployment, allowing you to mount the module in a standard equipment rack or place it securely on a flat surface. By adding an EBM, you can tailor your UPS configuration to meet specific runtime requirements without sacrificing space or compromising the existing setup. The BP48VRM2U is designed to work in harmony with Eaton Tripp Lite’s SmartPro series, delivering predictable performance, easy integration, and simplified power management that helps protect devices, data, and workflows from the impact of unexpected power interruptions.

• Extended runtime for compatible Eaton Tripp Lite SmartPro UPS systems (750VA, 1000VA, 1500VA), enabling longer periods of uninterrupted operation during outages.
• Daisy-chain capability to connect up to four matching battery modules, allowing scalable runtime expansion to support higher-load configurations.
• 2U rack/tower form factor, providing flexible placement in standard racks or on stable surfaces for compact data centers, server rooms, or office environments.
• Rugged, purpose-built construction designed to withstand continuous operation in demanding environments while maintaining reliable performance and easy maintenance.
• Seamless integration with existing UPS management tools, enabling monitoring of battery health, runtime estimates, and alerting to help optimize downtime planning and safeguard critical workloads.

How to install Eaton Tripp Lite BP48VRM2U

• Power down the UPS system and disconnect all nonessential loads to ensure a safe installation environment.
• Position the EBM in a suitable rack bay (2U height) or on a stable surface, ensuring adequate clearance for ventilation and cable access.
• Attach the EBM to the UPS using the manufacturer-recommended interconnect cables and secure connections as specified in the user manual.
• If you are deploying multiple EBMs, connect them in a daisy-chain configuration following Eaton Tripp Lite’s instructions, verifying that each module is recognized by the UPS and that the chain is properly terminated if required by the model.
• Power on the UPS and allow the system to perform its self-check. Use the UPS management software or display to confirm that the EBM is detected and contributing to runtime, and run a brief self-test to validate operation under simulated load conditions.
