Product Features
Product Overview
The Tripp Lite by Eaton SmartOnline SU5000RT is a 5000VA/4.5kW double-conversion online UPS engineered for mission-critical IT infrastructure protection. This 3U rack/tower unit delivers pure sine wave output with automatic voltage regulation (AVR) and zero transfer time, ensuring clean, uninterrupted power to sensitive servers, network devices, and telecommunications equipment during outages, surges, or brownouts. Its double-conversion topology continuously converts AC input to DC and back to AC, isolating connected loads from all utility power anomalies while maintaining consistent voltage and frequency.
Designed for commercial, financial, healthcare, and educational environments, the SU5000RT supports a wide range of critical applications including data center servers, network switches, storage arrays, and industrial control systems. The unit features 230V AC input with configurable output voltage compatibility across 200-250V AC ranges, making it suitable for global deployments. With 98% efficiency in ECO mode, it reduces operational costs and thermal footprint while providing robust power protection. The included WEBCARDLXE network card enables advanced remote management via SNMP, USB, RS-232, and dry contact interfaces for comprehensive infrastructure monitoring and control.
Technical Overview
This double-conversion online UPS maintains continuous power conditioning through its 5 kVA/4.5 kW capacity, delivering 3 minutes of runtime at full load and extending to 11 minutes at half load. The extended runtime provides sufficient time for graceful shutdowns or generator start-up procedures during extended power interruptions. The unit's electrical architecture includes built-in surge suppression, EMI/RFI filtering, and a circuit breaker that protects against electrical disturbances and overload conditions while maintaining pure sine wave output critical for sensitive electronic equipment.
The management suite features an intuitive LCD display showing real-time status information, while the network card slot supports the included WEBCARDLXE card for enterprise-level monitoring and control. Multiple interface options including USB, DB-9 RS-232, and dry contact ports enable integration with power management software and building management systems. The battery system utilizes hot-swappable, field-replaceable valve-regulated lead acid batteries with a 180V DC system voltage, allowing maintenance without powering down connected equipment. Environmental controls include audible and visual alarms for utility power failure, low battery, overload, battery fault, and remote shutdown conditions.
