Product Description
Manually transfer critical load from UPS power to utility power to prevent power interruption when repairing or replacing the UPS. Two styles are available. For 1kVA to 3kVA UPS, a 1U rack-mount module provide surge protection on input power and a toggle switch for easy transition between utility and UPS power. For 5kVA to 10kVA UPS, choose from several modules that attach to the rear of battery packs and provide several higher power output options.

Product Information
Key Benefits of Using a UPS Bypass Module
The UPS bypass module provides a reliable path for critical loads when a UPS unit requires maintenance or replacement. By manually transferring power from the UPS to utility source, downtime is eliminated and equipment remains protected. This capability is essential for data centers and enterprise networks that cannot afford interruptions. The design works seamlessly with modular UPS battery packs, allowing the bypass module to attach directly to the rear of the battery enclosure or to a rear‑mount rack position. When paired with modular UPS battery packs, the system delivers a smooth power transition without the need for additional wiring. Operators benefit from reduced installation time and consistent performance across the power chain. Installation is straightforward; supplied cords connect both UPS and utility inputs, and a toggle switch enables quick changeover. LED indicators confirm the status of UPS and utility sources before load transfer, ensuring safe operation. The compact 1U form factor fits into standard rack spaces, preserving valuable data‑center real estate. Beyond simple bypass, the module incorporates surge protection on its input, shielding connected equipment even while the UPS is in bypass mode. Integrated power distribution adds receptacles, allowing additional devices to draw power from the same enclosure. This dual function reduces the number of separate panels required and simplifies cable management. Chatsworth Products (CPI) backs each bypass module with a three‑year warranty and offers global availability through an extensive distributor network. Customers can rely on CPI's rapid customization services to tailor the solution to specific enclosure configurations. Expert consultation ensures the module integrates perfectly with existing infrastructure, supporting the most demanding enterprise and hyperscale environments.
