Wattbox WB-UPS-EBP-18AH24V Ups External Battery Pack

Product Description

The WATTBOX WB-UPS-EBP-18AH24V is an external battery pack designed to extend the runtime of compatible WATTBOX uninterruptible power supply (UPS) units. Rated at 18 amp-hours (Ah) at 24 volts, this battery pack connects to a host UPS to provide additional backup capacity during power outages or voltage irregularities. It is installed by low-voltage integrators, electricians, and AV/security system technicians in applications where extended uptime is critical. The pack adds reserve energy without replacing the core UPS unit, making it a straightforward capacity upgrade for existing installations.

This external battery pack is suited for residential and light commercial environments where network equipment, security systems, access control panels, or AV infrastructure must remain powered through brief to moderate outages. It pairs with compatible WATTBOX UPS products and is typically mounted in equipment racks, AV cabinets, or utility enclosures where the host UPS is installed. Installations requiring longer runtime than the internal battery provides are the primary use case.

Key Features

• 18Ah capacity at 24 volts for extended UPS runtime
• Designed as an external expansion pack to supplement internal UPS battery reserves
• Sold as a single unit (EA) for straightforward procurement
• Suited for rack-mounted or cabinet-based UPS deployments
• Supports critical loads including network, security, and AV equipment

Compatibility

Designed as an external battery expansion pack for compatible WATTBOX UPS systems. Verify host UPS model compatibility with WATTBOX documentation before installation, as not all UPS units support external battery packs.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage technician or licensed electrician familiar with UPS systems and battery handling procedures. Power down the host UPS and disconnect it from the AC supply before connecting or disconnecting the external battery pack. Follow all manufacturer wiring and connector guidelines to avoid reverse polarity or improper mating. Dispose of spent lead-acid or lithium batteries in accordance with local regulations and applicable electrical codes.
