Panduit UVP240 SteadySine External Battery Pack

Overview

The Panduit UVP240 is a rack-mounted external battery pack in the Panduit SteadySine power protection line, engineered to extend the runtime of compatible SteadySine UPS units when a brief ride-through is not enough. At 5.15" tall (1U-class) and 17.3" wide, it fits cleanly into standard 19" rack enclosures without consuming disproportionate rack space — a practical consideration in dense comms rooms, security head-end racks, and intermediate distribution frames where every unit of vertical space is budgeted. If your deployment requires sustained uptime through extended outages — generator transfer delays, rolling brownouts, or multi-hour maintenance windows — the UVP240 adds that buffer without replacing the host UPS. Pair it with a compatible UPS system from the SteadySine family and your runtime scales with the load, not the UPS chassis size.

Key Features

• Rack-Optimized Form Factor (5.15" H × 17.3" W): The UVP240 measures 131mm tall and 440mm wide — fits standard 19" rack cabinets and mounts alongside the host UPS without awkward overhangs or custom brackets. For security control rooms and network closets running rack enclosures, that dimensional discipline keeps the installation clean.
• Broad SteadySine UPS Compatibility: Verified compatible with ten SteadySine UPS models across the N and S series in both 5U and 6U/10U configurations (U05N11V, U06N11V, U10N11V, U05S11V, U06S11V, U10S11V, U06N12V, U10N12V, U06S12V, U10S12V). If you are already running one of these units, the UVP240 slots in as a direct runtime extension — no UPS replacement, no reconfiguration of your monitoring setup.
• Cross-Reference to Common Alternatives: The UVP240 cross-references to Eaton 9PXEBM180RT, APC SRT192RMBP and SRT192RMBP2, and CyberPower BP192V12-3U. If you are mid-project and evaluating UPS ecosystems, this parity list clarifies which deployments the UVP240 is designed to serve in the Panduit ecosystem.
• Single-Unit Packaging: Ships as a single unit (Package Qty: 1), so procurement and installation teams can order exact quantities per rack without dealing with multi-pack minimums that complicate staged deployments.
• SteadySine Sub-Brand Designation: The SteadySine label on the UVP240 indicates it is matched to Panduit's sine-wave output UPS line — relevant because non-sine-wave (stepped approximation) UPS units can stress certain battery chemistries and connected loads. Matching the battery pack to the correct UPS family avoids compatibility-driven runtime degradation.

Integration and Compatibility

The UVP240 is designed exclusively for use with the following Panduit SteadySine UPS models: U06S12V, U10S12V, U05S11V, U06S11V, U10S11V, U06N12V, U10N12V, U05N11V, U06N11V, and U10N11V. Before ordering, confirm your host UPS model number against this list. The UVP240 is not a universal battery pack — pairing it with an unsupported UPS chassis is not covered and will not produce the intended runtime extension. For teams evaluating power protection infrastructure across a broader security or IT deployment, verify UPS model generation and bay count before specifying quantity. The competitor cross-references (9PXEBM180RT, BP192V12-3U, SRT192RMBP, SRT192RMBP2) are provided for evaluation context only — the UVP240 is a Panduit-native component and should only be deployed with the listed SteadySine UPS models.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Which UPS models is the UVP240 compatible with?

A: The UVP240 is verified for use with these ten Panduit SteadySine UPS models: U06S12V, U10S12V, U05S11V, U06S11V, U10S11V, U06N12V, U10N12V, U05N11V, U06N11V, and U10N11V. It is not a universal battery pack — confirm your host UPS model before ordering.

Q: What are the physical dimensions of the UVP240?

A: The UVP240 measures 5.15 inches (131mm) tall and 17.3 inches (440mm) wide, designed to mount in standard 19-inch rack enclosures.

Q: Does the UVP240 ship as a single unit or in multi-packs?

A: The UVP240 has a package quantity of one, so you can order the exact number of units your deployment requires without multi-pack constraints.

Q: What competitor battery packs does the UVP240 cross-reference?

A: The UVP240 cross-references to the Eaton 9PXEBM180RT, CyberPower BP192V12-3U, and APC SRT192RMBP and SRT192RMBP2 — useful when evaluating UPS ecosystems or documenting equivalent specs across brands during a procurement process.

Q: Is the UVP240 part of the SteadySine product line?

A: Yes. The UVP240 carries the Panduit SteadySine sub-brand designation, indicating it is matched to Panduit's sine-wave output UPS product family.

The UVP240 is the battery extension module I reach for when a SteadySine deployment has a generator transfer delay problem — that gap between utility loss and generator pickup is exactly where an undersized internal battery runs out and equipment drops. At 5.15" × 17.3", it slots into the rack next to the host UPS without burning extra U-space you don't have, and it's confirmed against ten specific UPS models in the SteadySine N and S series, so there's no guesswork on pairing.

Technical Highlights:

• Rack Footprint (5.15" H / 131mm): Fits alongside host UPS in standard 19" racks without consuming additional rack units — critical in head-end closets where space is already allocated.
• 10-Model UPS Compatibility List: The UVP240 targets both the N-series and S-series SteadySine UPS units (5U, 6U, 10U form factors), giving you flexibility across a mixed fleet without stocking multiple battery SKUs.
• SteadySine Sine-Wave Match: Matching the battery pack sub-brand to the UPS sine-wave output family matters — mismatched battery packs on sine-wave inverters can introduce charge inefficiency and reduce effective runtime.

Deployment Considerations:

• Verify your exact host UPS model against the ten-model compatibility list before placing the order — the UVP240 is not a drop-in for arbitrary UPS brands, including the Eaton, APC, and CyberPower units it cross-references (those are spec-equivalency references, not interoperability claims).
• Physical dimensions are 5.15" H × 17.3" W; confirm available rack depth and rail compatibility in your enclosure before installation, as depth spec is not published in the available evidence.

The UVP240 is the right call for SteadySine-based security head-end racks and comms closets where generator transfer time exceeds internal UPS ride-through — specifically for facilities running U06 or U10 series SteadySine units that need runtime extension without a UPS chassis swap.
