Product Features
Technical Overview
Engineered with a 24 V DC valve-regulated lead-acid battery system, the SMART1500LCDTXC delivers up to 2 minutes of runtime at full load and up to 10 minutes at half load, providing sufficient time for safe shutdowns during power outages. The unit achieves greater than 95% efficiency in GREEN UPS mode, reducing energy costs and heat generation.
Advanced protection features include a 4 ms transfer time, EMI/RFI noise filtering, surge suppression with a 380 J rating, and overload protection with a circuit breaker. The pulse-width modulated sine wave output ensures compatibility with sensitive electronic equipment, while cold start functionality allows operation from battery power when AC input is unavailable.
Relevant factors for this section include AVR, Plug/Connector Type, Receptacle Type, Load Capacity (VA). When those points are considered together, they give buyers a clearer picture of how the product is equipped, how it fits into deployment, and what kind of day-to-day role it is meant to support.

User Manual
FAQ
What is the power capacity of this UPS?
The Tripp Lite by Eaton SMART1500LCDTXC provides 1440VA (1.44 kVA) apparent power and 1 kW real power capacity. This rating determines how much equipment it can support during power outages, suitable for typical workstation setups including computers, monitors, and networking devices.
How many outlets does this UPS have and what types?
This UPS features 10 total outlets: 5 battery & surge outlets that provide backup power during outages, and 5 surge-only outlets that offer protection without battery backup. This split configuration allows you to prioritize critical devices for battery backup while protecting non-essential equipment from surges.
What is the runtime at full and half load?
At full 1 kW load, the UPS provides approximately 2 minutes of runtime, allowing for safe system shutdowns. At half load (500W), runtime extends to about 10 minutes, giving more time for operations to continue during brief outages or for longer graceful shutdown procedures.
Does this UPS include automatic voltage regulation (AVR)?
Yes, this line-interactive UPS includes automatic voltage regulation that corrects brownouts (undervoltage) and overvoltages without switching to battery power. This extends battery life by reducing unnecessary battery usage and maintains stable output voltage between 110-120 V AC for connected equipment.
What management and monitoring features are available?
The UPS includes an LCD display showing input/output voltage, load percentage, frequency, and estimated runtime. It has USB and network connectivity for software monitoring and graceful shutdowns. Audible alarms alert for low battery, faults, overloads, and battery replacement needs, with status LEDs indicating power and charging states.
What is the form factor and installation options?
This compact tower UPS has a 0U rack height, meaning it's designed for standalone desktop or under-desk placement rather than rack mounting. Measuring 7.87"H × 5.91"W × 14.57"D and weighing 28.6 lb, it fits easily in office environments without requiring rack infrastructure while providing professional-grade power protection.
