Vertiv Liebert GXT5 UPS - 3000VA/3000W 230V | Online Rack Tower Energy Star

The Vertiv Liebert GXT5 UPS delivers enterprise-grade power protection for critical IT environments, ensuring your servers, networking gear, and storage stay online when it matters most. Built on online, double-conversion technology, this 3000VA/3000W UPS provides a clean, uninterrupted power supply with precise voltage regulation, scalable runtime options, and intelligent management features. Designed for versatility, it supports both rack and tower configurations, making it ideal for data centers, server rooms, and small to mid-size IT deployments that demand reliability, efficiency, and Energy Star compliance.

• Online double-conversion protection: The Liebert GXT5 continuously powers connected equipment from a clean, isolated, and regulated output, isolating loads from input disturbances and outages with isolated standby power. This topology ensures consistent voltage, performance, and uptime for sensitive devices, even during severe power events.
• High-efficiency, Energy Star certified design: Engineered to minimize energy waste, the GXT5 maintains excellent efficiency across operating loads, helping reduce energy consumption, cooling requirements, and total cost of ownership while staying compliant with Energy Star standards for power protection equipment.
• Rack/Tower configurability with hot-swappable batteries: Adapt to evolving space constraints by converting between a compact rack-mount profile and a free-standing tower. The UPS supports hot-swappable, scalable battery packs to expand runtime without taking downtime to service, ensuring continuous protection during extended outages.
• Scalable runtime and modular growth: Start with essential protection and easily grow capacity with additional battery cabinets as your IT footprint expands. This scalable approach protects investments by matching runtime to workload needs and peak demand periods.
• Comprehensive management and monitoring: Local LCD interface provides clear, real-time status at a glance, while USB/serial connections, and optional network management cards enable remote monitoring, graceful shutdowns, and proactive alerting for efficient IT operations across the enterprise.

How to Install Vertiv Liebert GXT5 UPS

• Plan the placement: Choose a well-ventilated location with adequate clearance for heat dissipation and easy access for maintenance. Decide whether to orient the unit as a rack-mount or a freestanding tower based on space and cable routing needs.
• Mount or position the unit: If rack-mounted, secure the UPS to the rack rails following the manufacturer's guidelines. If using a tower setup, ensure the base is stable and level to prevent tipping or vibration during operation.
• Connect loads and input: Plug critical devices into the UPS’s output outlets and connect the UPS input power cord to a properly grounded wall outlet or power distribution unit. Verify that the input supply matches the 230V nominal rating for optimal performance.
• Configure management interfaces: Attach the USB or serial cable for local monitoring or install an optional network management card for remote access. Use the LCD panel to review status, load, and battery conditions to ensure readiness.
• Test and verify: Run a controlled load test to confirm proper operation, then simulate a short outage to observe automatic shutdown sequencing. Confirm that alarm notifications are received by your monitoring system and that graceful shutdown procedures initiate as configured.
