Core Power Protection Capabilities
Online Double Conversion Architecture
The SRT SRT2200XLI operates in true online double conversion mode, isolating critical loads from input anomalies. It continuously conditions incoming power, handling sags, surges, noise, and complete outages without transferring to battery via a static switch.
10 Outlet Expansion and Circuit Management
Ten NEMA 5‑15R outlets support a balanced mix of equipment, while the intelligent circuit architecture helps manage load distribution. The unit clearly indicates overload conditions and provides user replaceable batteries for straightforward long term uptime.
Network and Server Integration Features
SmartSlot Expansion Capabilities
An optional PowerChute Network SmartSlot card enables remote management, graceful shutdowns, and integration with building management systems. This makes the unit suitable for automated data center workflows and multi‑site monitoring.
AC Input and Battery Flexibility
Wide input voltage tolerance reduces unnecessary battery discharges, extending battery life. Flexible battery configurations allow field upgrades, and runtime scales with connected load, ensuring predictable backup coverage for servers, network gear, and medical equipment.
Deployment and Environmental Considerations
Installation Best Practices
Mounting options include rack and standalone configurations, with attention to airflow and thermal management. Proper grounding and load balancing across phases help maximize reliability and component longevity in professional installations.
Efficiency and Operating Costs
High efficiency at partial and full load reduces energy consumption and heat output, lowering total cost of ownership. The online topology ensures clean power delivery, which is essential for sensitive electronics that demand stable voltage and frequency.
Operational Guidance for IT and Facilities Teams
- Verify input voltage compatibility with local grid and phase balancing.
- Plan battery replacement intervals based on runtime requirements and temperature.
- Use PowerChute software to configure graceful shutdowns and SNMP alerts.
- Schedule regular self tests and runtime calibration checks.
- Document load distribution across the ten outlets to avoid unbalanced phases.
