Product Features
Technical Overview
This SmartOnline UPS employs true double-conversion technology, where incoming AC power is converted to DC, then back to clean, regulated AC power. This isolates connected loads from all common power problems, including surges, sags, harmonics, and frequency variations. The unit accepts a 220V AC input and provides configurable output voltages of 220V, 230V, or 240V AC to match regional power standards.
With an 8 kVA/6.4 kW capacity and a 0.9 power factor, it efficiently supports high-density server racks, storage arrays, networking gear, and industrial control systems. The battery system offers a 6-minute runtime at full load and extends to 15 minutes at half load, providing adequate time for backup generators to start or for orderly system shutdowns. A typical full recharge completes within 8 hours.
This section brings together practical product details such as Plug/Connector Type, Load Capacity (VA), Load Capacity (Watt), Input Voltage, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
Key Product Advantages
The SU8000RT3UHW combines industrial-grade power conditioning with deployment flexibility and proactive management tools. Its design prioritizes reliability and serviceability in environments where uptime is non-negotiable.
Zero Transfer Time Protection
Double-conversion topology ensures connected equipment never experiences a break in power, even during blackouts or severe brownouts, eliminating the risk of data corruption or hardware stress from switching events.
- Isolates loads from grid anomalies
- Provides continuous regulated output
Modular Hot-Swap Design
Power and battery modules can be replaced or expanded without taking the UPS offline, enabling proactive maintenance and future capacity upgrades without interrupting protected loads.
- Supports live maintenance
- Facilitates easy battery replacement
Comprehensive Management Suite
SNMP, USB, and RS232 interfaces, along with optional SNMP/WEB and contact-closure cards, allow for integration into existing network monitoring systems, remote management, and automated emergency power-off (EPO) sequences.
Deployment / Use Cases
This 8000VA UPS is built for scenarios requiring robust, clean power for sensitive and high-availability infrastructure. Its capacity and form factor make it a fit for centralized protection of multiple devices within a single enclosure or location.
In a data center or server room, it can safeguard a full rack of servers, switches, and storage units. For industrial settings, it protects programmable logic controllers (PLCs), HMIs, and instrumentation from damaging voltage fluctuations. The tower configuration suits smaller IT closets or offices housing critical file servers and network hardware.
Data Center & Server Rack Power
Provides backup power and conditioning for high-density server and network equipment racks, ensuring business continuity during utility failures.
Industrial Control System Support
Protects manufacturing and process control electronics from dirty power that can cause erratic behavior, data loss, or premature equipment failure.
Physical Profile
The UPS comprises a 3U power module and a separate 3U external battery pack, totaling a 6U rack footprint. Each unit measures 5.14" H x 17.50" W x 25" D. The included four-post rackmount rails and tower stands provide secure installation in either orientation. The hardwired 3-wire connection requires professional installation by a qualified electrician to local electrical codes.
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 5.14" (130.56 mm), 17.50" (444.50 mm), 25" (635 mm), 55 lb (24947.58 g). This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.

User Manual
FAQ
What is the power capacity of this Tripp Lite UPS?
The SmartOnline SU8000RT3UHW has a load capacity of 8000 VA (8 kVA) and 6400 watts. With a 0.9 power factor, it can support a substantial amount of connected equipment, making it suitable for protecting server racks, network gear, or industrial control systems that demand high, clean power.
How long will this UPS run on battery power?
At full rated load (6400W), the battery runtime is 6 minutes. At a half load (3200W), the runtime extends to approximately 15 minutes. This provides a critical window for initiating backup generators or executing a controlled shutdown of protected systems to prevent data loss or hardware damage.
Can this UPS be installed in a server rack?
Yes, the SU8000RT3UHW is designed for both rack-mount and tower deployment. The system consists of a 3U power module and a separate 3U external battery pack, requiring a total of 6U of rack space. The package includes two sets of four-post rackmount rails for secure installation in a standard equipment rack.
What management features are available?
The UPS includes USB and RS232 ports for local management with the included PowerAlert software. It is also SNMP manageable for integration into network monitoring systems.
