Keep your automatic gate working through power cuts. The UPS01 is a 24 V DC power supply, battery charger and solar charge controller in one weatherproof box. It powers your gate opener from the mains, keeps a pair of 12 V backup batteries charged, and switches to battery power automatically if the mains fails. Add a 24 V solar panel and it will charge the batteries from the sun too.
Key features
- Mains to 24 V DC – converts 100–240 V AC to 24 V DC, with 150 W continuous and 180 W peak output.
- Battery backup – charges two 12 V batteries wired in series (24 V) and powers the gate from them when the mains is off.
- Built-in solar charge controller – connect 24 V solar panels up to 240 W in total. Mains input is optional for off-grid gates.
- Protection circuits – against short circuit, overload, over-current, over-voltage, over-heating and over-charging.
- Outdoor-ready – IP65 sealed ABS housing, working from −20 °C to +50 °C.
- Pre-wired – four labelled cables (AC in, solar, battery, load) with cable glands, so there is no need to open the box.

Frequently asked questions
Will my gate still work in a power cut?
Yes, as long as you connect two charged 12 V batteries. The UPS01 keeps them topped up and switches over automatically.
Can I run my gate on solar power only?
Yes. Mains input is optional – connect 24 V solar panels (up to 240 W) and batteries, and the UPS01 manages the charging.
Can I use lithium batteries?
No. Use lead-acid, AGM, GEL, flooded deep-cycle, marine or automotive batteries.
Does it work with my opener?
It works with gate openers and other devices that take a 24 V DC supply and draw no more than 150 W continuously. Check your opener's manual for its supply voltage before connecting. Openers with a built-in mains transformer, such as the CASAR800 garage door opener, plug straight into the mains and do not need the UPS01.
