APC SRT3000XLT - Smart-UPS On-Line 3kVA Tower UPS

Overview

The APC Smart-UPS On-Line SRT3000XLT delivers continuous, regenerated AC power for critical IT loads. Rated at 3000VA / 2700W, this tower model provides 208V output (configurable for 208 or 240V), pure sine wave, and scalable runtime to maintain uptime for servers, storage, and network hardware in demanding environments.

Key Features & Benefits

• Double-Conversion Online – Continuous power conditioning that isolates loads from sags, surges, and frequency drift.
• Pure Sine Wave Output – Stable power quality for sensitive computing and network devices.
• Scalable Runtime – Extend backup with external battery packs; typical recharge about 3 hours.
• High-Capacity Connections – 2x L6-20R and 1x L6-30R outlets support 208/240V equipment.
• SmartSlot & USB – Add network management via SmartSlot and manage locally over USB.
• ENERGY STAR® V2.0 – Verified efficiency for reduced operating impact.

Technical Deep Dive

True double-conversion architecture continuously converts incoming AC to DC and back to AC, delivering a tightly regulated sine wave output independent of input variations. This design also keeps harmonic distortion low (less than 2%) and maintains output frequency at 50/60 Hz ±3 Hz in sync with mains.

The SRT3000XLT uses a 96V lead-acid battery system with a typical 3-hour recharge, supporting extended runtime through optional external battery modules. A 3:1 crest factor handles dynamic IT loads effectively, while the internal bypass (automatic and manual) maintains power to equipment if the UPS requires service.

For connectivity and control, administrators can utilize the SmartSlot for optional network cards, USB for direct management, and audible/visible alarms prioritized by severity. A 340 J surge rating adds suppression against transients, and EPO support enables emergency shutdown integration.

Ideal Applications

• 208/240V IT loads requiring continuous online conditioning
• Tower deployments in server rooms and network closets
• Sites needing expandable backup time via external batteries
