Cyber Power BP48VP2U01 Extended Battery Module User Manual
INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the Cyber Power Extended Battery Module BP48VP2U01/ BP48VP2U02 for your Uninterruptible Power Supply! The Extended Battery Module is designed for various Cyber Power UPS systems and can be used in either rack or tower installations. The heavy gauge power cord has a plug-n-play DC connector for easy installation. When combining with UPS, the Extended Battery Module provides extended runtime with a 48VDC external connection. Further, additional parallel-connected Extended Battery Modules will provide a longer extended runtime for the UPS.
IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNINGS (SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS) This manual contains important instructions that should be followed during installation and maintenance of the Extended Battery Module and batteries. Please read and follow all instructions thoroughly before and during the installation and operation of the product.
CAUTION! The Extended Battery Module must be connected to a grounded AC power outlet with fuse or circuit breaker protection.
DO NOT plug the Extended Battery Module into an outlet that is not grounded.
CAUTION! The battery can energize hazardous live parts inside even when the AC input power is disconnected.
CAUTION! To prevent the risk of fire or electric shock, install in a temperature and humidity controlled indoor area, free of conductive contaminants. Please see specifications for acceptable temperature and humidity range.
CAUTION! To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove the cover, except to service the battery. There are no serviceable parts inside, except for the battery
CAUTION! DO NOT USE THE UPS ON ANY TRANSPORTATION! To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not use the unit on any transportation such as airplanes or ships. The effect of shock or vibration caused during transit and the damp environment can cause the unit to short out
CAUTION! Dispose of or recycle the unit after the end of its life, it should be in accordance with local regulations.
CAUTION! Please use only VDE-tested, CEmarked or UL/ CSA certified mains cable, (e.g. the mains cable of your equipment), to connect the Extended Battery Module to the AC outlet.
CAUTION! Do not unplug the unit from AC Power during operation, as this will invalidate the protective ground insulation.
DO NOT USE WITH OR NEAR AQUARIUMS! To reduce the risk of fire, do not use with or near aquariums. Condensation from the aquarium can come in contact with metal electrical contacts and cause the machine to short out.
CAUTION! DO NOT INSTALL THE UNIT WHERE IT WOULD BE EXPOSED TO DIRECT
SUNLIGHT OR NEAR A STRONG HEAT SOURCE!
CAUTION! DO NOT BLOCK OFF VENTILATION OPENINGS AROUND THE HOUSING!
CAUTION! A single AC inlet can only support 10 Extended Battery Modules at most. If connecting more than 10 modules, split them up onto multiple circuits to avoid an overload.
CAUTION! Do not connect the Extended Battery Module to itself.
CAUTION! For ground protection, plug AC power connectivity to wall receptacle with ground line before using the Extended Battery Module.

BASIC OPERATION
Normal Use
- Plug the Extended Battery Module into a grounded receptacle/ wall outlet.
- Connect the Extended Battery Module to your UPS by plugging the extended battery module connector plug into the connector socket on the rear panel of the UPS. Ensure the color coded connector plug lines up correctly with the colors in the UPS socket, such as red to red, black to black and green to green.
- Connect the BM/ENV port from UPS rear panel to BM port marked “IN” on the rear panel of the Extended Battery Module using the provided BM cable.
- Check and modify the Extended Battery Module Quantity setting on your UPS through the LCD module, PowerPanel® Business software or RMCARD interface (if installed) to ensure the UPS reports an accurate runtime.
BASIC OPERATION – CONTINUED
Connecting Multiple Extended Battery Modules
Additional Extended Battery Modules are connected in parallel, the voltage maintains the same, yet the battery amp-hour capacity depends on the numbers of Extended Battery Modules in the set-up. Follow the steps described below to add multiple Extended Battery Modules to your UPS
- Use the auxiliary power cord to connect the AC inlet from one Extended Battery Module to the AC outlet of another Extended Battery Module.
- Plug the Extended Battery Module into a grounded receptacle/ wall outlet.
- Connect the Extended Battery Module to your UPS by plugging the extended battery module connector plug into the connector socket on the rear panel of the UPS. Ensure the color coded connector plug lines up correctly with the colors in the UPS socket, such as red to red, black to black and green to green.
- Connect the BM/ENV port from UPS rear panel to BM port marked “IN” on the rear panel of the Extended Battery Module using the provided BM cable, and then connect another BM cable between BM port marked “OUT” and BM port marked “IN” of another Extended Battery Module. Refer to illustration below.
- Check and modify the Extended Battery Module Quantity setting on your UPS through the LCD module, PowerPanel® Business software or RMCARD interface (if installed) to ensure the UPS reports an accurate runtime.
Be aware of the following statements:
- Your Extended Battery Module may be used immediately upon receipt. However, charging the battery for at least 12 hours before connecting to UPS is recommended to ensure the battery reaches its maximum charge. Charge loss may occur during shipping and storage. To recharge the battery, simply leave the unit plugged into an AC outlet.
- To maintain optimal battery charge, leave the Extended Battery Module plugged into an AC outlet at all times.
- Always plug the Extended Battery Module into a grounded receptacle/ wall outlet. Make sure the wall branch outlet is protected by a fuse or circuit breaker and does not service equipment with large electrical demands, e.g. air conditioner, refrigerator, copier, etc. Avoid using extension cords.
- DO NOT plug the AC power cord from the Extended Battery Module into a UPS.
- To prevent risk of electric shock, it is necessary to plug the Extended Battery Module into a grounded receptacle before connecting to the UPS, or turn the UPS off first, connect the Extended Battery Module as above steps and then turn the UPS on.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT
Read and follow the important safety instructions before servicing the batteries. Visit Cyber Power official website www.cyberpower.com or contact your dealer for more information on replacement batteries.
The battery replacement video is available on our website, visit www.cyberpower.com or scan the QR code below for detailed information.
CAUTION! RISK OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS REPLACED BY AN INCORRECT TYPE. When When replacing batteries, replace with the same number of the following battery: Cyber Power RB1270X4H for BP48VP2U01, Cyber Power RB1290X4J for BP48VP2U02.
CAUTION! Risk of Energy Hazard, 12V, maximum 9 Ampere-hour battery.
CAUTION! The used batteries are considered hazardous waste and must be disposed through recycling. Most retailers that sell lead-acid batteries collect used batteries for recycling, as required by local regulations. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. The batteries may explode.
CAUTION! Do not open or mutilate batteries. Released material is harmful to the skin and eyes. It may be toxic
Take the following precautions before replacing the battery:
- Remove watches, rings, or other metal objects.
- Use tools with insulated handles.
- Wear rubber gloves and boots.
- Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of batteries.
- Determine if battery is inadvertently grounded. If inadvertently grounded, remove source from ground. CONTACT WITH ANY PART OF A GROUNDED BATTERY CAN RESULT IN ELECTRICAL SHOCK. The likelihood of such shock can be reduced if such grounds are removed during installation and maintenance (applicable to equipment and remote battery supplies not having a grounded supply circuit).
Battery Replacement Procedure
- Disconnect the Extended Battery Module from your UPS, remove faceplate and unscrew the screws on battery cover and then remove the battery cover.
- Disconnect the battery and battery management module connector.
- Insert the new battery pack. Assemble the connectors, screws, battery cover and faceplate. Recharge the unit for at least 12 hours to ensure the Extended Battery Module performsexpected runtime and then connect the Extended Battery Module to your UPS.
- Reminder: Check and modify the Extended Battery Module Quantity setting on your UPS through the LCD module, PowerPanel® Business software or RMCARD interface (if installed) to ensure the UPS reports an accurate runtime.
