Vertiv GXT4-240VBATKIT Battery Kit
Overview
The Vertiv GXT4-240VBATKIT is an external battery kit designed to extend the runtime of compatible Vertiv GXT4 series Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) units. This kit is specifically engineered for deployments requiring extended operational time during power outages, ensuring critical equipment remains powered for longer periods. It is a direct replacement for the internal battery modules in specific higher-capacity GXT4 models.
Compatibility
This GXT4-240VBATKIT is compatible with the following Vertiv GXT4 UPS models:
- GXT4-5000RT230E
- GXT4-6000RT230E
It provides the necessary battery capacity to significantly increase runtime for these 5kVA and 6kVA units. The kit is not compatible with lower-capacity GXT4 models (e.g., GXT4-3000RT230E) or other Vertiv UPS series.
Installation Notes
Installation requires powering down the UPS unit and disconnecting it from the mains and load. The kit connects to the UPS via specific battery cables (typically included with the kit or UPS). Ensure proper torque specifications are met when connecting battery terminals to prevent arcing or loose connections. The battery kit itself is designed for rack mounting within the same 2U or 3U chassis as the compatible UPS models. Consult the GXT4 UPS installation manual for detailed, step-by-step instructions specific to adding external battery modules.
