SUGGESTED TOWER
INSTALLATION

1)

On one side of your battery pack, connect one mounting
ear (A) to the Battery Pack's four front mounting holes and
another mounting ear (B) to the four rear mounting holes,
using four screws and flat washers (C) with each ear. The
ends of the mounting ears should stick out on opposite
sides of the Battery Pack.

2)

Have one or more assistants lift the Battery Pack and hold
it in position until this step is complete. Move the Battery
Pack to its intended floor space and hold it so that the
mounting surfaces of its ears (D) are level with the floor.
Bolt the ears to the floor with two screws and flat washers
(user supplied, E) each. Without bolting the Battery Pack
in position, there is a danger of tipping.

Your Battery Pack may be positioned safely in an upright position
without mounting screws with the addition of Stabilizer Feet (part
#300842), sold separately from Tripp Lite.

BATTERY PACK CONNECTION

BP48V24-2U Battery Packs have a blue 175-amp polarized plug
(A) on an output cord permanently connected to the rear panel.
Simply plug the output cord directly into the external battery
connector of your UPS. (See your UPS manual for external battery
connector description and location.) Note that only
one of these Battery Packs is generally connected
to a UPS at one time. For longer runtime, you may
connect two to a single UPS using a 48V Y-
Adapter Cable sold separately by Tripp Lite, or use
one or more BP48V60-3U Tripp Lite Battery
Packs with daisy-chain capability.

BP36V14-2U or BP72V12-2U Battery Packs
feature dual input/output receptacles on their rear
panels (B) . To connect to a UPS, insert one end of
the detachable power cable (C) into either plug on
the rear of the Battery Pack and the cable's other end
into the external battery connector of your UPS.
(See your UPS manual for external battery connec-
tor description and location.) To connect multiple
Battery Packs to a single UPS for greatly increased
runtime, connect the output of the first Battery Pack
to the UPS's external battery connector, then "daisy
chain" the others: connect an input/output plug on
the second Battery Pack to an input/output plug on
the first, a plug on third to a plug on the second and
so on. Note that multiple Battery Pack arrays will
provide longer runtimes, but will also require
longer recharge times.
