precautions should be observed before replacing the battery pack:
• Wear rubber gloves and boots
• Remove rings, watches and other metal objects.
• Use tools with insulated handles.
• Do not lay tools or other metal objects on the batteries.
• If the battery kit is damaged in any way or shows signs of leakage, contact your local Emerson representative immediately.
• Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. The batteries may explode.
• Handle, transport and recycle batteries in accordance with local regulations.
WARNING
Although the Liebert® GXT3™ 5000RT230U has been designed and manufactured to ensure
personal safety, improper use can result in electrical shock or fire. To ensure safety, observe
the following precautions:
• Turn Off and unplug the Liebert GXT3 before cleaning it.
• Clean the UPS with a dry cloth. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.

Do not continue to use the UPS if the front panel indications are not in accordance with these
operating instructions or the UPS performance alters in use. Refer all faults to your dealer.
Servicing of batteries should be performed or supervised by personnel knowledgeable of batteries and
the required precautions. Keep unauthorized personnel away from the batteries. Proper disposal of
batteries is required. Refer to your local laws and regulations for disposal requirements.
Never block or insert any object into the ventilation holes or other openings.
DO NOT CONNECT equipment that could overload the UPS or demand DC current from the UPS,
for example: electric drills, vacuum cleaners, laser printers, hair dryers or any appliance using halfwave rectification.
Storing magnetic media on top of the UPS may result in data loss or corruption.
Turn Off and isolate the UPS before cleaning it. Use only a soft cloth, never liquid or aerosol cleaners.

1.0INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your choice of the Liebert® GXT3™ 5000RT230U uninterruptible power system
(UPS). The Liebert GXT3 comes in a nominal power rating of 5000VA. It is designed to provide
conditioned power to microcomputers and other sensitive electronic equipment.
When it is generated, alternating current is clean and stable. However, during transmission and
distribution it may be subject to voltage sags, spikes and complete power failure that may interrupt
computer operations, cause data loss and even damage equipment. The Liebert GXT3 protects
equipment from these disturbances.
The Liebert GXT3 is a compact, on-line UPS that continuously conditions and regulates its output
voltage, whether mains power is present or not. It supplies connected equipment with clean sinewave
power. Sensitive electronic equipment operates best from sinewave power.
For ease of use, the Liebert GXT3 features a light-emitting diode (LED) display to indicate both load
percentage and battery capacity. It also provides self-diagnostic tests, a combination ON/Alarm
Silence/Manual Battery Test button, a Standby/Manual Bypass button and a configuration program.
The Liebert GXT3 has a Liebert IntelliSlot
server or other computer systems. This port provides detailed operating information including
voltages, currents and alarm status to the host system when used in conjunction with Liebert
MultiLink
®
. Liebert MultiLink can also remotely control UPS operation.

System Description
2.1Transient Voltage Surge Suppression (TVSS) and EMI/RFI Filters
These UPS components provide surge protection and filter both electromagnetic interference (EMI)
and radio frequency interference (RFI). They minimize any surges or interference present in the
mains line and keep the sensitive equipment protected.
In normal operation, the rectifier/power factor correction (PFC) circuit converts mains AC power to
regulated DC power for use by the inverter while ensuring that the waveshape of the input current
used by the UPS is near ideal. Extracting this sinewave input current achieves two objectives:
• The mains power is used as efficiently as possible by the UPS.
• The amount of distortion reflected on the mains is reduced.
This results in cleaner power being available to other devices in the building not being protected by
the Liebert
2.3Inverter
In normal operation, the inverter utilizes the DC output of the power factor correction circuit and
inverts it into precise, regulated sinewave AC power. Upon a mains power failure, the inverter
receives its required energy from the battery through the DC-to-DC converter. In both modes of
operation, the UPS inverter is on-line and continuously generating clean, precise, regulated AC
output power.
®
GXT3™.
2.4Battery Charger
The battery charger utilizes energy from the mains power and precisely regulates it to continuously
float charge the batteries. The batteries are being charged whenever the Liebert GXT3 is connected to
mains power.

2.5DC-to-DC Converter
The DC-to-DC converter utilizes energy from the battery system and raises the DC voltage to the
optimum operating voltage for the inverter. This allows the inverter to operate continuously at its
optimum efficiency and voltage, thus increasing reliability.
2.6Battery
The Liebert® GXT3™ utilizes valve-regulated, nonspillable, lead acid batteries. To maintain battery
design life, operate the UPS in an ambient temperature of 15°C to 25°C (59°F to 77°F). Optional
external battery cabinets are available to extend battery run times. For run times, see Table 11.
2.7Dynamic Bypass
The Liebert GXT3 provides an alternate path for mains power to the connected load in the unlikely
event of a UPS malfunction. Should the UPS have an overload, overtemperature or any other UPS
failure condition, the UPS automatically transfers the connected load to bypass. Bypass operation is
indicated by an audible alarm and illuminated amber Bypass LED (other LEDs may be illuminated to
indicate the diagnosed problem). To manually transfer the connected load from the inverter to bypass,
press the Standby/Manual Bypass button once.
NOTE
The bypass power path does NOT protect the connected equipment from disturbances
in the mains supply.
