Know before you buy
Online double-conversion means the UPS continuously converts incoming AC power to DC and then back to a clean, regulated AC sine wave. This process isolates your equipment from power fluctuations, surges, and line noise, providing the highest level of protection for sensitive hardware.
Yes, this model supports external battery packs. You can connect compatible Tripp Lite battery packs to the UPS to significantly extend the runtime during a power outage.
Yes, the output voltage is selectable, allowing you to set it to 200V, 208V, 220V, 230V, or 240V to match the specific requirements of your connected devices.
This is a 2U rack-mount unit, meaning it occupies 2 units of vertical space in a standard 19-inch server rack. It measures 3.5 inches high and 24.3 inches deep, so ensure your rack has sufficient depth to accommodate the chassis.
Yes, the unit includes USB and RS-232 ports for local management via TrippLite PowerAlert software. Additionally, it features an expansion slot that supports an optional network management card for remote monitoring over an IP network.
No, because this is an online double-conversion UPS, it provides zero transfer time. Your equipment remains powered by the inverter at all times, ensuring seamless operation without any interruption.
