    5PX2200RT & 5PXEBM48RT battery replacements

    It has been four years since I modified my 5PX2200RT with quieter fans. Now it is time to replace the batteries in another 5PX2200RT (2U Line Interactive UPS) and the 5PXEBM48RT (external battery pack) attached to it. Looking at videos, it seems like these units both have batteries encased in a...

    5PX2200 UPS cooling & noise management

    5PX2200 UPS cooling & noise management

    I replaced the fans on my Eaton 5PX. I used the pre-terminated connectors with leads mentioned in a previous post. I have 48 of these left-over and I'm happy to share them around. My approach was an adapter. Why? Two goals: * ability to replace the original fans easily * no modification of...

    5PX2200 UPS cooling & noise management

    I ordered those and they arrived this week. I wonder about the wiring and if the wire should be soldered up in the same order as regular 3-pin fan connector or not. Ideas welcome. EDIT: I figured this out today. They are not the same as an ATX fan connection. I will post details soon. Thank...

    5PX2200 UPS cooling & noise management

    I am about to do similar work on an EATON 5PX2200 using the same fans. I will be creating an adapter with using the JST-XH connecter recommended by GiGaBiTe and some cables I had sitting in a box. One end of this adapter will attach to the existing fan connecters. The fan will connect to the...
