Product Features
Product Overview
The Liebert GXT5 2000VA 120V UPS is a double conversion online uninterruptible power supply engineered for IT and mission-critical equipment protection. This unit delivers 2 kVA (1.80 kW) of clean, regulated power with zero transfer time, ensuring connected devices never experience a break in power during grid fluctuations or outages. Its pure sine wave output guarantees compatibility with sensitive electronics, while the integrated color LCD provides clear status and diagnostic information at a glance.
Designed for flexible deployment, the UPS features a 2U rack/tower form factor, making it suitable for server rooms, network closets, or office environments. The package includes both a 4-post rack mounting kit and a tower stand, allowing immediate installation in either configuration. With seven output receptacles—six NEMA 5-15/20R and one NEMA L5-20R—it can power a consolidated set of core IT devices, ensuring operational continuity during power events. The 10-foot input cord provides ample reach for standard power sources.
This model supports one external battery cabinet, enabling runtime extension to meet demanding backup requirements. Built-in environmental sensors monitor for leaks, temperature, and humidity, adding an extra layer of protection for critical infrastructure. The unit is Energy Star certified and complies with RoHS, REACH, and WEEE environmental standards, reflecting its design for efficiency and responsible disposal.
Technical Overview
This double conversion online UPS continuously conditions incoming power, providing complete isolation from utility line noise, spikes, and frequency variations. The input accepts a wide voltage range from 60V to 150V AC, offering robust protection against brownouts and overvoltages. Output is a stable 120V AC pure sine wave, which is essential for modern switch-mode power supplies and active PFC equipment. Users can fine-tune the output voltage between 110V, 115V, and 120V AC (±3%) to match specific load requirements.
The unit includes staged overload protection, responding to overloads from 105% to over 200% with timed cutoffs to safeguard both the UPS and connected equipment. It features a 16A input current and a transfer time of 0 nanoseconds, ensuring seamless transition to battery power. Management is facilitated through a serial port, an EPO (Emergency Power Off) port, and a USB port that is HID compliant for broad operating system compatibility. Free Power Insight 2.2 software is available for download, enabling advanced monitoring, configuration, and control.
Battery management is a key technical strength, with three valve-regulated, non-spillable lead-acid batteries that are hot-swappable for maintenance without downtime. The typical battery recharge time is 3 hours, and battery life is rated at 5 years. Environmental operating conditions include a maximum temperature of 104°F (40°C) and elevations up to 9842.52 feet, ensuring reliability in diverse installation environments.
