Vertiv 30 kVA UPS A Vertiv 30 kVA UPS is a robust power protection solution designed for critical applications that require a high level of power reliability. A 30 kVA rating means the UPS can supply up to 30, 000 Volt-Amperes of apparent power. The actual power in Watts it can deliver depends on its power factor (PF), typically ranging from 0.8 to 1.0. Therefore, a 30 kVA UPS can usually supply between 24 kW (at PF 0.8) and 30 kW (at PF 1.0) of real power. Vertiv offers several UPS series that include 30 kVA models, tailored for different needs: 1. Vertiv™ Liebert® GXT5 UPS (5 kVA - 20 kVA): While the standard GXT5 series goes up to 20 kVA, it's a flagship online double-conversion UPS known for its high efficiency and unity power factor. It's worth checking if a parallel configuration of GXT5 units can meet your 30 kVA requirement, although this is more common in larger modular UPS systems. Key features include: * Online double-conversion topology. * High output power factor (up to 1.0). * Scalable runtime with external battery cabinets. * Intelligent battery management. * User-friendly LCD interface and remote management capabilities. 2. Vertiv™ Liebert® ITA2 UPS (5 kVA - 40 kVA): This series offers a transformer-free, scalable UPS designed for efficient and reliable three-phase power for critical loads. The 30 kVA model would typically be a three-phase in/three-phase out configuration. Key features include: * Double conversion online design. * High output power factor (0.9). * Scalable battery runtimes. * Rackmount or tower configuration flexibility. * Optional maintenance bypass. 3. Vertiv™ Liebert® EXS UPS (10 kVA - 40 kVA): The Liebert EXS is a monolithic, transformer-free UPS with a compact footprint. The 30 kVA model offers: * Online double-conversion topology. * High power density. * Efficient operation (up to 94% in double conversion, up to 99% in ECO mode). * Unity output power factor (1.0). * Flexible battery runtime options. 4. Vertiv™ Liebert® APM UPS (30 kW - 300 kW): This is a modular UPS system where the 30 kVA (which is equivalent to 30 kW at PF 1.0) would be a base module. The APM series is known for: * Scalability and redundancy. * High efficiency (up to 96% in double conversion, up to 98% in ECO mode). * Unity output power factor. * Hot-swappable power modules. 5. Vertiv™ Liebert® HIPULSE-U UPS (30 kVA - 500 kVA): This is an industrial-grade UPS designed for robust performance and reliability. The 30 kVA model in this series typically features: * Three-phase input and output. * Built-in isolation transformer. * High overload capability. * Parallel operation capability for redundancy or increased capacity. Key Specifications of a Typical Vertiv 30 kVA UPS: Given that the specifications can vary significantly between different Vertiv series and specific models, here are some general parameters you might expect for a 30 kVA UPS: Capacity: 30 kVA / 24 kW - 30 kW (depending on PF). Input Voltage: Typically 380/400/415 VAC (three-phase, 3-wire or 4-wire + ground). Output Voltage: Typically 380/400/415 VAC (three-phase, 3-wire or 4-wire + ground). Some models might support single-phase output as well. Frequency: 50/60 Hz (auto-sensing). Battery Voltage: High DC bus voltage, often in the range of 384 VDC to 480 VDC, requiring a significant number of 12V batteries connected in series. Backup Time: Highly dependent on the load and the capacity of the connected battery bank. It can range from a few minutes to several hours. Many 30 kVA UPS require external battery cabinets for extended runtime. Recharge Time: Varies based on battery capacity and charger rating, typically several hours to reach 90% capacity. Communication Ports: RS-232, USB, and intelligent slots for optional SNMP/Web cards, Modbus, and relay contacts for remote monitoring and management. Outlets/Connections: Typically hardwire terminal blocks for both input and output. Form Factor: Usually rack-mountable, often requiring significant rack space (e.g., several U). Some models might be available in a floor-standing tower configuration. Weight: Can be substantial, ranging from 70 kg to several hundred kilograms depending on the model and whether internal batteries are included.
