Description

Tripp Lite SU20KRT8 20,000VA / 20kVA / 18,000 watt online, double-conversion UPS system offers complete

power protection for critical server, network and telecommunications equipment in a 12U rack/tower

configuration. This system delivers complete N+1 redundancy when used at loads up to 10kVA, and

non-redundant operation at loads between 10 and 20kVA. Fault-tolerant auto-bypass prevents unexpected

service interruptions during UPS overload or internal fault conditions. Included parallel PDU with manual bypass

switching enables hot-swappable replacement of all major UPS system components in both N+1 and combined

operating modes. Enhanced availability, fault tolerance and simple hot-swap replacement options make this UPS

ideal for advanced networking applications in data centers, computer rooms, network closets and rugged

industrial locations.
