Product Features
Technical Overview
At its core, the 9PXM UPS provides 20 kVA of power capacity, supporting critical loads during utility failures. The system offers a 6-minute runtime at full load, providing a crucial window for executing controlled shutdowns or transferring to generator power. This runtime is a key specification for planning emergency procedures and ensuring data integrity.
Power distribution is handled through a comprehensive set of 14 hardwired NEMA outlets, including eight NEMA 5-20R, two L6-20R, two L6-30R, and two L14-30R receptacles. This variety supports mixed equipment loads, from standard IT gear to higher-power devices, within a single consolidated power protection system.
This section brings together practical product details such as Plug/Connector Type, Receptacle Type, Receptacle Detail, Load Capacity (VA), so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
Key Product Advantages
The Eaton 9PXM series integrates advanced technologies designed to maximize system uptime, simplify management, and extend hardware life. Its design philosophy centers on eliminating single points of failure and providing administrators with complete visibility and control over the power environment.

- 3-stage charging algorithm
- Extends battery life
- Reduces total cost of ownership
Built-in Remote Management
The included NETWORK-M2 Gigabit network card enables full remote monitoring, configuration, and control via SNMP/HTTP. Administrators can receive alerts, check status, and initiate shutdown commands from anywhere, integrating power management into existing IT workflows.
- SNMP/HTTP protocols
- Remote monitoring and control
- Gigabit Ethernet connectivity
Modular Redundant Design
The system features N+1 redundancy for both power and logic components. This architecture eliminates system-level single points of failure, allowing for continuous operation even if a module fails, which is essential for mission-critical applications requiring maximum availability.
Deployment / Use Cases
This 20 kVA UPS is engineered for environments where power continuity is non-negotiable. Its capacity and outlet configuration make it suitable for protecting consolidated server racks, network distribution frames, or a cluster of critical workstations and peripherals.
Typical deployment scenarios include small to medium data centers, server rooms supporting banking or financial operations, voice/data network hubs, call centers, and offices with significant POS equipment. The rack/tower flexibility allows it to be deployed as a standalone tower in a room corner or integrated neatly into a standard 19-inch equipment rack, adapting to the physical constraints of the installation site.
IT Infrastructure & Data Centers
Provides foundational power protection for server racks, storage arrays, and core networking equipment, ensuring uptime for business applications and data services.
Commercial & Financial Operations
Safeguards critical systems in banking environments, call centers, and retail POS networks, preventing data loss and transaction interruptions during power events.
Physical Profile
The UPS system is housed in a substantial cabinet measuring 36.50" high, 17.50" wide, and 34.50" deep, with an approximate weight of 690 pounds. This 12-slot cabinet is designed as a convertible tower unit that can be reconfigured for standard 19-inch rackmount installation, offering significant flexibility for data center planning. The robust construction and weight underscore its high-capacity design, intended for stationary deployment in a dedicated equipment room or data center floor space.
