Product Features
Product Overview
The Liebert GXT5 3000VA 120V UPS is a double conversion online uninterruptible power supply engineered for reliable power protection in demanding IT and mission-critical environments. With 3 kVA (2.70 kW) capacity, this unit delivers clean, consistent power output while safeguarding connected equipment from power disturbances, outages, and electrical noise. Its double conversion topology ensures maximum power quality by continuously converting incoming AC power to DC and back to clean AC output, providing zero transfer time and complete isolation from utility power anomalies.
Designed for flexible deployment, the GXT5 supports both 2U rack-mount and tower configurations, making it suitable for server rooms, network closets, and office settings. The unit features six NEMA 5-20R outlets and one NEMA L5-30R outlet, powered by a NEMA L5-30P input plug with a 10-foot cord, supporting a mix of standard and higher-power equipment connections. Its hot-swappable battery design allows for maintenance without system downtime, while the color LCD provides clear status monitoring and configuration access. The included Power Insight 2.2 software enables remote management and monitoring capabilities, enhancing operational efficiency and uptime.
Technical Overview
This double conversion online UPS accepts 120V AC input with a wide 60-150V range and delivers regulated 120V AC output with user-selectable voltage settings (110/115/120VAC ±3%). Power conditioning includes sine wave output, circuit breaker protection, and robust overload handling: >200% for 250ms, 150-200% for 2 seconds, 125-150% for 10 seconds, and 105-125% for 15 seconds. The 70Hz input frequency tolerance ensures compatibility with various power sources, while the 24A input current supports high-load scenarios.
The unit incorporates three valve-regulated, non-spillable lead-acid batteries (12V each) with a 5-year battery life and 3-hour typical recharge time. Runtime extends from 3 minutes at full load (2.70 kW) to 9 minutes at half load (1.35 kW) with internal batteries, and up to 17 minutes at full load (43.5 minutes at half load) when paired with the optional external battery cabinet. Environmental sensors monitor temperature, humidity, and potential leaks, while serial, USB (HID compliant), and EPO ports enable integration with management systems and emergency shutdown procedures.
