Get the manual or download the full manual from the Powerware site. Go through the UPS settings to ensure they match the factory settings. (By the way, the factory setting for the Input Voltage Frequency should be +/- 5%). Someone may have fooled with the settings and set the Free Run Mode to "Off".
If all the settings are correct, you have dead batteries. Use PowerSonic PS-1290 F2, rated at 9.0 Amp. Hr. for the best battery replacement.

My Powerware 9120 2000 has low power alarm and shutdown at 50% charge

A Powerware 9120 2000 is an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) device that provides power backup to connected devices in case of power outages or other power issues. If the UPS is shutting down at 50% charge and showing low power alarm, there could be several possible causes:
  1. The battery is failing: The UPS is designed to shut down when the battery charge reaches a certain level to prevent damage to the battery. If the battery is failing, it may not be holding a charge and may need to be replaced.
  2. The battery is not compatible: Make sure that the battery you are using is compatible with the Powerware 9120 2000 UPS. Using an incompatible battery can cause the UPS to shut down or display error messages.
  3. The battery cable is loose: Check the battery cable connections to ensure that they are tight and secure. A loose battery cable can cause the UPS to shut down or display error messages.
  4. The UPS is overheating: Check the UPS for any signs of overheating, such as a hot feeling on the top of the unit or a burning smell. An overheating UPS can cause the UPS to shut down or display error messages.
  5. The UPS firmware is outdated or corrupted: Check to ensure that the UPS firmware is up to date and not corrupted. Outdated or corrupted firmware can cause the UPS to shut down or display error messages.
If none of these solutions solve the problem, it's recommended to contact the manufacturer or a professional technician for further assistance. They will have the knowledge and expertise to troubleshoot and diagnose the issue with your Powerware 9120 2000 UPS.

Can I replace the fan in a live powerware 9120?

hey dude your problem is so simple..below are my solutions.
if you already secured the fans for the replacement then its easy for you to do it, try to totally shut down your UPS removing the input and battery supply. avoid replacing the fans with power, its to dangerous. it consist of almost 400VDC inside in it.
call me if you want +63923 3024 585

Uninterruptible Power Supply problems. My uninterruptible power supply (UPS) is not backing up during a utility power outage.

First, we do need to full charge it. Then see what's being able to pick up a load of this Ups power or not? If not then it means something is wrong with this Ups. Please put this change.

Attaching a generator to Powerware 9120 UPS

Power ware has a powerpass bypass switch for $200.00.

There is two inputs on this bypass switch. One for power, and one for the generator.

One ouput for your UPS. There you have it... There is your soluiton. I might add one other thing called a Power Guard, PMM117, to monitor the power of the backup generator. The time delay of this device will prevent over current from cooking your UPS power supply.

They also have a Hardwired version that is more expensive for you 5, 6 ,10KVA UPS. So a automatic bypass switch is what you need.
