Description
Tripp Lite's Smart Online SU1500RTXL2U on-line, double conversion UPS protects critical server, networking and telecommunications equipment
from blackouts, voltage fluctuations and transient surges. Multi-use form factor occupies only 2 rack spaces (2U) in standard 19 inch rackmount
configuration and includes tower stands to support upright placement. Large capacity 1.5kVA/1200 watt UPS continuously converts incoming AC to
DC, then back to perfect sine wave AC output at 120V AC (+/-2%). Removes harmonic distortion, fast electrical impulses, frequency fluctuations and
other hard-to-solve power problems not addressed by other UPS types. True sine wave output and zero transfer time offers guaranteed compatibility
with all equipment types. Includes 6 outlets arranged in two individually switchable load banks that can be independently controlled via software
interface to selectively reboot remote equipment, or shed less critical loads to extend battery runtime for more critical equipment. Battery support can
be extended indefinitely through the addition of external 2U rackmount battery packs (part# BP48V212U). Includes slot for internal SNMP/web card,
plus DB9 enhanced serial monitoring port for unattended shutdown, remote control and monitoring of UPS system and power data. Compatible with
Tripp Lite's Watchdog system service software.
Applications
Ideal for protection of critical 120V equipment in server rooms, internetworking closets and telecommunications systems in rackmount or
tower applications. Common applications include corporate or departmental servers, workstations, hubs, routers, bridges, CAD/CAM
workstations, concentrators, IP telephony and traditional PBX switching systems.

LINE / BATTERY TRANSFER
Transfer time from
line power to
battery mode
Zero, online UPS continuously converts incoming AC to DC, then back to AC. When commercial power is interrupted,
UPS maintains continuous output from battery reserves with absolutely no disruption in output AC power.
Low voltage
transfer to battery
power
Maintains continuous operation during undervoltages as low as 80V (65V at load levels under 70%). Below this
switchover point, output is supported from battery derived AC power.
High voltage
transfer to battery
power
Maintains continuous operation without using battery power during overvoltages to 138V. Above this point, output is
supported from battery derived AC power.
