Product Features
Technical Overview
This double conversion online UPS provides full isolation from raw utility power, continuously regenerating clean AC output regardless of input quality. It accepts 120V AC input with a wide 0-160V AC range and delivers regulated output at 120V, 110V, or 127V AC, supporting both 50Hz and 60Hz frequencies. The true sine wave output is essential for powering active PFC power supplies found in modern servers and networking gear without risk of shutdown or damage.
The unit incorporates a built-in bypass switch and cold start function, allowing manual operation and startup without utility power when required. Battery runtime is rated at 3 minutes under full 2700W load and extends to 10 minutes at half load, providing sufficient time for orderly system shutdown or generator transfer.

FAQ
What is the power capacity of this Minuteman UPS?
This Minuteman Encompass RTXL UPS provides 3000VA (3 kVA) of apparent power and 2700 watts of real power capacity. It uses double conversion online topology to deliver clean, regulated power, making it suitable for protecting critical servers, network gear, and medical equipment from power disturbances.
How long will this UPS run on battery during a power outage?
At its maximum rated load of 2700 watts, the battery runtime is 3 minutes. When supporting a reduced load of approximately 1350 watts (half load), the runtime extends to 10 minutes. This provides sufficient time for connected systems to perform a graceful shutdown or for backup generators to engage.
What types of power outlets does this UPS have?
The unit includes six NEMA 5-15/20R receptacles (standard 15A/20A 125V) and one NEMA L5-30R receptacle (30A 125V locking). This combination allows you to power a mix of servers, switches, and higher-draw equipment directly from the UPS without additional PDUs in many configurations.
Can this UPS be mounted in a standard server rack?
Yes, it is designed for 2U rack mounting in a standard 19-inch rack. The form factor is also described as rack/tower/compact, meaning it can be used as a standalone tower or in compact placements if rack mounting is not required, offering deployment flexibility.
