Vertiv has introduced the Liebert GXE, an online double-conversion single-phase uninterruptible power supply (UPS) available in 6 and 10 kVA power ratings in tower or rackmount configuration.
The system is designed to provide reliable power to distributed IT networks and edge computing applications in various industries and is globally available for countries and organisations using 230 V solutions.
According to Vertiv, the Liebert GXE performs with efficiency up to 94% in online mode and up to 98% in eco mode. The output power factor of 1.0 enables continuous power to more connected devices, protecting them against disturbances in the AC mains with the online double conversion technology and the input surge protection. The flexible rackmount or tower form factor, with rackmount kits included as a standard, facilitates stock management for distribution in the IT channel and simplifies installation to accommodate various micro data centre and edge computing needs.
The unit’s runtime can be extended with up to four external battery cabinets (EBC) for longer back-up protection, and the hot-swappable VRLA batteries can be replaced by users without the assistance of skilled personnel and without shutdown of the loads for smoother operations and minimised maintenance costs.
“IT channel distributors and resellers are constantly looking for efficient and cost-effective solutions to protect small and micro IT sites against power outages,” said Andrea Ferro, Vice President Channel, IT & Edge Applications for Vertiv in EMEA.
“This latest addition to our IT channel portfolio provides all the key features and performance capabilities needed in an online double conversion UPS for an affordable price, which allows small and medium businesses of all industries to leverage the latest technologies and accelerate their digital transformation journey.”
