SKU CH-FGES-K1V6X

Hardwired maintenance bypass with two L6-20R and two L6-30R outlets keeps equipment running during UPS service

  • Parts3 Year
  • Service UPS without downtime via maintenance bypass
  • Hardwired input plus two L6-20R and two L6-30R outlets
  • 0U rear-mount on UPS or EBM saves rack space
  • Wall, tower or side-rack mounting with included hardware
  • Compatible with select 3kVA to 6kVA Eaton UPS systems

Compatible UPS Bypass for 3–6 kVA Systems

The Eaton MBP6K208G2 maintenance bypass connects directly to select 9PX G2 and 9PX UPS units rated from 3 kVA to 6 kVA. It allows technicians to service or replace the UPS without shutting down attached equipment, avoiding costly downtime. The unit suits server rooms, network closets and industrial environments where continuous power is essential.

Sustained Power Handling and Thermal Behaviour

Rated at 6000 W continuous input and output, the bypass passes full load current through its hardwired paths during maintenance windows. Because power flows directly from source to load in bypass mode, the switch runs at line temperature without added conversion losses. No active cooling is required, so acoustic noise remains negligible during extended bypass periods.

Hardwired Input With Four Locking Outlets

A single hardwired feed supplies two NEMA L6-20R and two NEMA L6-30R receptacles, each with a locking mechanism that resists accidental disconnection. Included hardware permits 0U rear mounting on the UPS or EBM, side or top rack mounting, wall mounting or tower orientation. This flexibility lets installers match the bypass to existing rack layouts without consuming extra rack units.

Questions about this item

How much power does the Eaton 9PX G2 maintenance bypass draw while running continuously?

The bypass passes utility power directly to connected equipment without converting or regulating it, so its own consumption is negligible and it adds no measurable heat or noise to the rack.

What UPS models must already be installed for this bypass to function?

It is designed for Eaton 9PX5KG2, 9PX6KG2, 9PX6K-L and 9PX3K3UG2 UPS systems rated from 3 kVA to 6 kVA with 208 V input.

Will the L6-20R and L6-30R outlets on the bypass accept the same plugs as my existing 20 A and 30 A rack PDUs?

Yes, the two NEMA L6-20R and two NEMA L6-30R receptacles match standard 20 A and 30 A locking plugs used on compatible Eaton PDUs.
