VERTIV Liebert GXT5 Lithium-Ion UPS

The Vertiv™ Liebert GXT5 Lithium-Ion UPS provides the highest level of power protection for your business-critical IT applications.

High-Performance Online Power Protection

The GXT5 Lithium-Ion double conversion online UPS provides both the highest level of power conditioning and battery backup for business-critical IT equipment such as business network gear and servers ensuring your mission- critical applications are protected in the event of an unanticipated loss of power or an unprecedented power surge.
The GXT5 Lithium-Ion UPS protects against the widest range of power fluctuations and automatically switches to battery backup when power loss is detected. With a 0.9 or better output power factor (PF) and no transfer time to operation on battery, you can ensure your most critical assets are protected.

Protects Against

The rack/tower convertible design of the Vertiv Liebert GXT5 Lithium-Ion UPS makes it ideal for edge or distributed IT applications where floor space is at a premium. It is a true low-maintenance, set-it and forget-it solution ideal for remote locations with limited onsite technical resources.

Why should you choose  Lithium-Ion Technology?

Vertiv Liebert GXT5 Lithium-Ion Overview

• 1000VA, 1500VA, 2000VA, & 3000VA UPSs in a rack/tower convertible form factor
• Standard 5-year warranty provides peace of mind that your investment is protected against potentially costly equipment failures
• Achieve the lowest total cost of ownership over the lifetime of the UPS with fewer battery replacements and up to 10 years of useable life
• Hot-swappable, user-replaceable batteries increase the useable life of the UPS by allowing you to easily replace the batteries without disrupting power to connected equipment
• Internal batteries offer industry-leading runtime (up to 14 minutes at full load) to protect critical equipment during an unexpected power loss
• Lithium-Ion battery technology offers better performance in high-temperature environments, supports up to 10 times more discharge cycles, and delivers faster recharge times compared to VRLA batteries.

Lithium-Ion technology delivers up to 3 times the life expectancy of lead-acid batteries and lowers the total cost of ownership by nearly half

Lithium-Ion Outperforms VRLA when compared…

High Performance

0.9 (or Better) Output Power Factor (PF): Provides more useable power enabling you to connect more equipment saving you money and space.
Increased Runtime: Internal batteries offer up to 14 minutes of runtime at full load.
Programmable Outlet Group: Extend run time when on battery power by power-cycling connected equipment and shedding less critical loads.
Battery Backed Outlets: Up to 7 battery backed outlets ensuring critical equipment is protected.
Advanced Warning Status: Receive early audible and visual alarms warning you of system status to alert you to an input voltage, output overload, low battery, or battery replacement condition.
Wide Input Voltage Range: Prolong battery life by allowing the UPS to maximize the use of the utility power before transferring to battery.

Superior Battery Technology

Fewer Battery Replacements: Lithium-Ion batteries require fewer battery replacements and last on average up to 3 times as long as traditional VRLA batteries reducing maintenance, labor, and replacement costs (lower TCO).
More Discharge Cycles: Lithium-Ion batteries deliver up to 10 times more charge / discharge cycles than VRLA batteries.
Fast Recharge: Lithium-Ion batteries recharge twice as fast as traditional VRLA batteries getting you back to 90% in as little as 2 hours.
Hot-Swappable, User-Replaceable Batteries: Increase product life and reliability with batteries that can be easily replaced without disrupting power to connected equipment.
Safe and Reliable: Safest Lithium-Ion (LiFePO4) battery chemistry and integrated battery management system (BMS) ensure safe and reliable operation.

Enhanced Manageability

LCD Display: User-friendly full-color LCD interface with gravity sensing orientation simplified installation and configuration while also providing instant at-a-glance status and insights.

Free Power Management Software:

• Vertiv™ Power Insight – Add the Liebert® RDU101 card for web/SNMP manageability
• Vertiv™ Power Assist – Monitor UPS conditions through a local USB connection
• Vertiv™ Intelligence Director – Together with Vertiv™ Geist™ rPDU one single IP Address to monitor and manage up to 50 devices.

Remote Monitoring and Management: Add an optional Liebert® IntelliSlot RDU101 communication card to enable remote monitoring/management (web-based, SNMP, BACnet, MODBUS and relay contacts) and environmental monitoring via external sensors.
Remote Emergency Power Off: Remotely shutdown the UPS during an emergency.
