Uninterruptible Power Supply APC SMT3000IC 3000 VA LCD 230V

APC SMT3000IC 3000 VA LCD 230V is a line-interactive uninterruptible power supply designed to provide reliable backup power and surge protection for 230V systems. It delivers up to 3000 VA of capacity with an integrated LCD that shows real-time status, load level, battery charge and diagnostic information. The unit supports graceful shutdowns and continuous operation of essential equipment during mains disturbances, making it suitable for small data centers, server racks and office environments.

Advantages

The APC SMT3000IC combines a high-capacity 3000 VA rating with an intuitive LCD interface for clear operational feedback. It offers automatic voltage regulation to correct minor power fluctuations without using battery power, which helps extend battery life. Built-in surge protection and battery backup reduce the risk of data loss and hardware damage during outages and spikes. The design supports rack or tower installation, enabling flexible deployment in constrained equipment rooms.

Suitable for

• Small and medium server racks requiring short-term backup and orderly shutdown
• Network equipment such as switches, routers and firewalls
• Workstations and critical office electronics
• Small data center edge cabinets and telecom closets

Key specifications

• Rated capacity: 3000 VA
• Nominal output voltage: 230 V
• Topology: line-interactive with automatic voltage regulation
• User interface: integrated LCD for status and diagnostics
• Form factor: rack/tower convertible
• Output waveform: simulated sine wave (typically for line-interactive models)
• Surge and spike protection included

How to use

Install the APC SMT3000IC in a stable, ventilated location either in a rack or as a tower according to the installation instructions. Connect critical equipment to the battery-backed outlets and non-critical loads to surge-only outlets if available. Use the LCD to verify input voltage, load percentage and battery status. Before planned maintenance, perform a managed shutdown of connected systems using the UPS management software or the on-screen controls to avoid data corruption.

Usage recommendations

For reliable operation, place the UPS in a temperature-controlled environment within the manufacturer’s specified range, avoid obstructing ventilation, and perform periodic battery self-tests and replacements as indicated by the LCD or management software. Regularly update and configure shutdown settings in the UPS software to match the power requirements and recovery procedures of connected devices.
