APC Smart-UPS SRT 5000VA 230V 4.5kW Online Double-Conversion SRT5KXLI

APC Smart-UPS SRT 5000VA

The APC SRT5KXLI UPS is a double-conversion online uninterruptible power supply rated at 5000 VA and 4500 W for 230 V single-phase loads. Continuous rectifier and inverter operation isolates servers, storage, and voice gear from sags, surges, and frequency drift. The output remains a low-distortion sine wave while the input is hard-wired 3-wire (1P+N+E). The chassis converts between tower feet and a 3U rack mount when a compatible rail kit is fitted. Network management, USB, serial, and a SmartSlot path support local and remote monitoring.

Additionally, the unit holds a wide input window so it stays online through unstable utility conditions. Therefore connected loads see fewer transfers to battery on typical East African feeders. However, full-load runtime on internal batteries is short by design. Consequently, sites that need longer hold-up should plan matching external battery packs rather than oversizing VA alone.

Key Features

• Double-conversion online topology
  The inverter runs continuously, so the load never rides raw mains during a disturbance.

• High real-power rating

  • 5000 VA / 4500 W supports dense 230 V IT loads.
  • Power factor near 0.9 delivers more watts than many line-interactive 5 kVA units.

• Hardwired input and mixed IEC outlets
  Input is 3-wire hardwire. Output includes six IEC C13, four IEC C19, and two IEC jumpers.

• Internal automatic and manual bypass
  Bypass keeps loads powered during service when the bypass path is healthy.

• Extendable runtime
  Hot-swappable lead-acid modules and SRT192BP cabinets extend autonomy without changing the electronics.

Rail kits for 19-inch racks are typically ordered separately. Confirm the matching APC rail SKU before a rack install.

Why Choose This Online UPS

• True online conversion protects active-PFC servers without a transfer gap.

• 4500 W real output supports denser racks than many 5 kVA line-interactive units.

• Hardwired input and mixed IEC outlets fit plant rooms and network closets on 230 V.

• Scalable battery cabinets let autonomy grow with recovery-time objectives.

• LCD and network-management options simplify commissioning and remote fault response.

Additionally, output frequency can sync to the mains within a tight window when utility conditions allow. Therefore generator and ATS designs remain workable when transfer characteristics are engineered correctly. However, cables, breakers, and ventilation must match nameplate current and heat. Consequently, installation should follow Schneider Electric APC documentation and local electrical code. Place the unit with clear rear exhaust, torque the hardwire lugs, and test bypass before placing production loads on the outlets.
