Core Purpose

• Enables parallel operation of two EP40 UPS units

• Increases system capacity and load-sharing capability

• Provides redundancy for uninterrupted power supply

• Enhances overall reliability and availability of critical systems

• Allows maintenance on one UPS without disrupting connected loads

How It Works 

The EP40-PKIT connects two EP40 UPS units via a dedicated parallel communication link.

1. • It synchronizes the output voltage and frequency of both UPS units.

   • Load is shared evenly between the connected UPS units to prevent overloading.

   • If one UPS fails or is taken offline for maintenance, the other continues supplying power without interruption.

   • Ensures seamless redundancy, improving system reliability for critical loads.

   • High-speed communication allows real-time monitoring and coordination between units.

Why You Would Use One

A parallel tie kit is used when you want:

✅ Increased total power capacity (e.g., 2 × 40 kVA = 80 kVA)
✅ Redundancy so load stays powered even if one UPS fails
✅ Hot‑swappable maintenance (with bypass panel)
✅ Scalability — add more UPS units as demand grows

Important Notes

🔹 A parallel tie kit must be matched to the specific UPS model and brand — they are not universal.
🔹 Some UPS models require additional internal cards or firmware options to enable paralleling.
🔹 Simply tying outputs with cables without proper control can damage equipment.
