Built for rack-mount and tower installation in data centers, network closets, and server rooms, this UPS battery expansion module is a standard part of any commercial-grade power protection deployment. Integrators specifying UPS runtime extension for critical infrastructure use the BP36RT to scale backup power without replacing the primary UPS unit. It ships with rack-mounting hardware, heavy-gauge battery cabling, and a daisy-chain connector for linking additional modules.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe BP36RT is a 36V DC extended battery module engineered specifically for Eaton's Tripp Lite series SmartOnline 2023-redesign UPS line, including the SU750RTXLCD2U, SU750RTXLCD2UN, SU1000RTXLCD2U, and SU1000RTXLCD2UN. It uses valve-regulated lead-acid (VRLA) battery technology, the same maintenance-free chemistry used in the host UPS, so runtime scales predictably as additional modules are added. For commercial deployment in a network closet or server room, the 2U rack height and included 4-post mounting hardware let the module sit directly beneath or above the UPS in a standard 19-inch rack; an optional RK2PC kit supports 2-post rack installation, and UPS support stands allow tower configuration. The daisy-chain design supports connecting up to four matching battery packs to a single UPS, which makes the BP36RT a practical building block for facilities that need to plan runtime in stages rather than over-provisioning a single large system up front. This battery module extension is a common addition when a UPS installation is protecting network switches, servers, or AV control equipment where even a few extra minutes of runtime materially reduces the risk of an unclean shutdown. Because it is purpose-built for the specific SmartOnline chassis it pairs with, the BP36RT installs using the UPS's existing battery connector and does not require rewiring or a separate charging circuit. Installation is straightforward for anyone comfortable with rack equipment: mount the module, connect the supplied high-current 36V cabling, and the host UPS automatically recognizes the added capacity. The unit operates in ambient temperatures from 32°F to 104°F (0°C to 40°C) and up to 96% non-condensing humidity, matching typical data center and network closet environmental conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e36V VRLA Battery Architecture\u003c\/strong\u003e — Matches the host SmartOnline UPS chemistry so added modules integrate without a separate charging system.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDaisy-Chain Expansion\u003c\/strong\u003e — Supports up to four linked battery packs per UPS, letting facilities scale runtime incrementally as needs grow.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2U Rack-Mount Design\u003c\/strong\u003e — Fits standard 19-inch server racks alongside the UPS and connected network or AV equipment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlexible Mounting\u003c\/strong\u003e — Includes 4-post rack hardware; supports optional 2-post rack kits and tower configuration via UPS support stands.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeavy-Gauge Battery Cabling Included\u003c\/strong\u003e — High-current 36V DC connectors are included, simplifying installation without sourcing separate cabling.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePurpose-Built Compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e — Engineered specifically for the SU750RTXLCD2U, SU750RTXLCD2UN, SU1000RTXLCD2U, and SU1000RTXLCD2UN UPS systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWide Operating Range\u003c\/strong\u003e — Rated for 32°F to 104°F and up to 96% non-condensing humidity, suited to network closets and data center floors.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFactory Warranty Coverage\u003c\/strong\u003e — Backed by Eaton's standard warranty on parts, electronics, and batteries, with extended coverage options available.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTypical Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eData center rack rows requiring extended UPS runtime for compliance or SLA requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNetwork closets supporting switches, routers, and PoE equipment during utility outages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eServer rooms where extended runtime allows for graceful shutdown of virtualized workloads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGovernment and commercial facilities with critical infrastructure uptime requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel \/ SKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBP36RT\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSystem Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e36V DC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBattery Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eValve Regulated Lead Acid (VRLA)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions (H x W x D)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.41 in x 17.33 in x 17.72 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUnit Weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e48.1 lbs (21.82 kg)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRack Form Factor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2U, 19-inch rack (mounting hardware included)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMounting Options\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4-post rack (included), optional 2-post rack kit (RK2PC), tower via UPS support stands\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExpandability\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDaisy-chain up to 4 matching battery packs per UPS\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompatible UPS Models\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSU750RTXLCD2U, SU750RTXLCD2UN, SU1000RTXLCD2U, SU1000RTXLCD2UN\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOperating Temperature\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e32°F to 104°F (0°C to 40°C)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOperating Humidity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0-96% non-condensing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2-year factory warranty on parts, electronics, and batteries; 5-year expedited or onsite coverage available\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the BP36RT compatible with any Tripp Lite or Eaton UPS?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. The BP36RT is engineered specifically for the 2023-redesign Eaton Tripp Lite series SmartOnline SU750RTXLCD2U, SU750RTXLCD2UN, SU1000RTXLCD2U, and SU1000RTXLCD2UN UPS systems.
