16kVA N+1 UPS protects connected equipment against damage due to power outages, voltage
fluctuations and transient surges.
Features
Protects Mission-Critical Rack-Mounted Equipment against Damage, Downtime and Data LossThis
TAA-compliant UPS system protects connected equipment against damage, downtime and data loss due
to power outages, voltage fluctuations and transient surges. Featuring a 14,400W capacity, high 0.9
power factor, true on-line operation with pure sine wave output and zero transfer time to battery, the
SmartOnline® SU16KRT-1TFTAA includes two 3U UPS power modules, two 3U external battery packs, a
2U step-down transformer and a parallel PDU with maintenance switch. Using the step-down transformer,
the N+1 UPS system can support both low- and high-voltage equipment.
The Complete Power Protection Solution for Advanced Networking ApplicationsRecommended for
data centers, computer rooms, network closets and other areas with mission-critical equipment, the
SU16KRT-1TFTAA actively converts raw incoming AC power to DC and then re-converts it back to
regulated, filtered AC output with a pure sine wave, completely isolating connected components from all
power problems. It features a 3-wire single-phase hardwire input (3-wire, single phase) and 22 total
outlets—two NEMA L6-30R (208/240V), eight C19 (208/240V), eight NEMA 5-15/20R (120V) and four
NEMA 5-15R (120V).
External Batteries Supply Reliable Backup with Expandable Runtime OptionsUPS battery backup
keeps connected equipment operational through short power failures, and provides time to save data and
perform an orderly system shutdown in case of a prolonged blackout. The external battery packs provide
13.5 minutes of support at half load and 5.5 minutes at full load. During normal operation, incoming utility
power keeps the battery fully charged so backup power will be available when needed. For mission-critical
applications demanding continuous uptime, the 16kVA UPS can provide expandable runtime with optional
external battery packs, such as Tripp Lite’s field-replaceable, hot-swappable BP240V10RT3UTAA. A
battery-independent restart ensures automatic UPS power-up after lengthy power outages, even with
expired batteries.
Easily Hot-Swappable to Avoid Expensive Service Calls and DowntimeWith its parallel PDU, the
SU16KRT-1TFTAA with manual bypass switching enables hot-swappable replacement of all major UPS
system components in both N+1 and combined operating modes. It offers automatic N+1 redundancy at
load levels up to 8kVA and non-redundant operation from 8kVA all the way up to 16kVA. In bypass mode,
the PDU passes power to equipment without the use of the power and battery modules, allowing them to
be removed while keeping your application in operation. When making repairs or replacing a battery, no
lengthy service calls or downtime are necessary.
Intuitive Front-Panel Interface for Convenient UPS Operation and MonitoringFront-panel LEDs
indicate line power, online mode, bypass mode, on-battery, charger and AC output status at a glance. The
LCD readout with scroll controls supports visual monitoring of a variety of control options to support

Optional WEBCARDLX Network Interface Offers 24/7 AccessAn accessory slot accommodates the
optional Java-free HTML5-based WEBCARDLX interface, which enables full remote access for site power
and UPS status monitoring, configuration, control and email notifications via secure web browser, SNMP,
telnet or SSH. It supports 10/100 Mbps auto-sensing for optimum communication with an Ethernet
network. Automated alerts help prevent accidental overloads, power loss and downtime.
Advanced Communications Ports for Protecting Valuable DataUSB and DB9 ports (cables are
included) enable data-saving unattended shutdown of connected systems when used with Tripp Lite’s free
downloadable PowerAlert® software. Capabilities include detailed monitoring of load levels, self-test data
and utility power conditions.
Versatile Installation Options to Match Your SetupHardware is included for mounting the 16kVA UPS
system in 14U of space in an EIA-standard 19-inch 4-post rack. Use five optional 2POSTRMKITHD kits
for 2-post rack mounting or two optional 2-9USTAND kits for mounting in an upright tower position.
TAA-Compliant UPS for GSA Schedule PurchasesThe SU16KRT-1TFTAA is compliant with the
Federal Trade Agreements Act (TAA) for GSA Schedule purchases.
2-Year Warranty and $250K Ultimate Lifetime InsuranceThe SU16KRT-1TFTAA comes with a 2-year
warranty and $250,000 of Ultimate Lifetime Insurance for any connected components damaged by a
power surge (U.S., Canada and Puerto Rico only).
