Deployment / Use Cases
This UPS is purpose-built for environments where power quality and availability directly impact operational continuity. Its 6 kVA capacity and harsh environment rating make it ideal for mid-sized server rooms, network closets, and industrial control systems.
Typical deployments include supporting rack-mounted servers, network switches, storage arrays, and telecommunications equipment in manufacturing facilities, remote offices, or data centers with less stringent environmental controls. The tower design offers flexibility for floor placement where rack space is limited.
Server Room Backup
Provides clean sine wave power to multiple servers and networking gear, protecting against surges, sags, and outages that could cause data loss or hardware damage.
Industrial Networking
The conformal coating safeguards internal components in dusty or humid industrial settings, ensuring reliable operation for PLCs, HMIs, and network infrastructure.
Physical Profile
The tower form factor measures 17" high by 5.11" wide by 25.98" deep, with a substantial weight of 120.26 pounds. Its compact width allows placement in tight spaces, while the black finish blends with standard IT equipment. The design prioritizes stability and serviceability, with accessible components for battery replacement and maintenance.
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 17" (431.80 mm), 5.11" (129.79 mm), 25.98" (659.89 mm), 120.26 lb (54549.018416 g). This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.
