FAQ
What is the voltage and capacity of this battery pack?
This battery pack operates at 96V and is rated for 3kVA capacity. It is designed specifically for use with APC Smart-UPS SRT On-Line UPS systems to extend runtime during power outages. The 96V configuration ensures compatibility with the UPS charging system, while the 3kVA rating indicates the power capacity it can deliver to connected equipment.
Is this battery pack hot-pluggable?
Yes, this battery pack features hot-pluggable design. This allows you to replace or add battery packs without powering down the connected UPS or equipment, minimizing downtime in critical environments. The hot-pluggable capability is particularly valuable in data centers and server rooms where continuous operation is essential.
How many battery packs can I connect for extended runtime?
You can connect up to 10 of these battery packs in parallel to significantly extend runtime. This scalability allows you to customize backup duration based on your specific power protection needs. Each additional pack increases the total battery capacity, providing longer runtime for graceful shutdown of servers and workstations during prolonged outages.
What type of battery chemistry does this pack use?
This battery pack uses sealed lead acid (SLA) chemistry. The batteries are leak-proof and maintenance-free, requiring no regular watering or servicing. Lead acid technology provides reliable performance with a typical battery life of 3 to 5 years under normal operating conditions, making it a cost-effective choice for UPS applications.
What are the physical dimensions and weight of this unit?
