Tripp Lite BP180RT 180V UPS Battery Module 3U

SKU CH-1CH3-NP1CE MPN BP180RT

Extends runtime for compatible SmartOnline UPS systems with a 180 VDC valve-regulated lead-acid module in a 3U rack or tower form factor

  • Extends SmartOnline UPS runtime with 180 VDC battery module
  • Hot-swappable VRLA cartridges (744-A1974) replace without powering down
  • 3U rackmount or tower form factor fits standard enclosures
  • Single-phase input via dedicated UPS DC connector
  • User-replaceable design needs two cartridges per module

Extended Runtime Module

The Tripp Lite BP180RT is an 180V extended battery module designed for SmartOnline UPS systems. It adds scalable runtime to compatible units in server rooms or network closets. The 3U rackmount or tower form factor fits standard enclosures for flexible deployment. IT administrators use it to keep critical loads running longer during outages.

DC Interface Constraints

The module connects through a UPS-specific DC connector that only mates with supported SmartOnline units. Single-phase input and a one-foot cord limit placement relative to the host UPS. No universal battery bus or standard terminal is provided, so compatibility must be verified before purchase. The fixed voltage and proprietary link prevent use with other brands or DC voltages.

Capacity And Headroom

The 180 VDC system voltage is supplied by valve-regulated lead-acid cells housed in two hot-swappable cartridges. Each cartridge uses the 744-A1974 replacement pack, allowing user replacement without powering down the load. Runtime scales with the connected UPS rating and load level; the module itself stores no watt-hour figure. When the UPS reaches its maximum EBM count, further expansion stops.

Questions about this item

Should I buy one or two 744-A1974 cartridges for this module?

The EBM requires two 744-A1974 replacement battery cartridges for full operation.

What does the 180 VDC rating mean when the module is connected to my UPS?

It matches the 180 VDC bus of compatible SmartOnline UPS systems, extending runtime at that voltage.

What connector does the BP180RT use and what does it limit?

A UPS-specific DC connector links the module, so it only works with supported Tripp Lite SmartOnline units.
