Technical Deep Dive
The SRT3000XLA employs true double-conversion online topology, meaning incoming AC power is continuously converted to DC and then inverted back to AC. This process isolates connected equipment from power irregularities such as surges, sags, and harmonic distortion. The result is a pure sine wave output with less than 2% total harmonic distortion, ideal for sensitive computing and networking loads.
Its built-in Automatic Bypass allows seamless power transfer during internal faults or overloads, preventing downtime. With a crest factor of 3:1, it handles peak loads from servers and storage systems without derating. The UPS also integrates audible and visual alarms prioritized by severity, enhancing real-time monitoring.
Designed with efficiency in mind, the unit operates at optimized levels with ENERGY STAR® certification, lowering energy consumption. The 96V lead-acid battery charges in just three hours, and modular extensions provide scalable runtime for extended outages.
Ideal Applications
- Small to medium enterprise servers and storage
- Network closets and edge IT deployments
- Healthcare diagnostic and lab equipment
- Retail point-of-sale and inventory management systems
