Uninterruptible Power Supply UPS APC SRV3KRIRK-E 3 kVA 2700 W

The APC SRV3KRIRK-E 3 kVA 2700 W is an uninterruptible power supply designed for rack-mounted installations. It delivers up to 2700 W of continuous output power with a pure sine waveform, uses sealed lead-acid battery technology with a 72 V battery voltage, and fits a 2U rack capacity. The unit features a C20 power plug, an IP20 protection rating and a recharge time of approximately 4 hours, providing short-term backup power and controlled shutdown capability for connected equipment.

Advantages

The UPS provides stable sine-wave output suitable for sensitive IT and network equipment and supports a 3 kVA output capacity with 2700 W continuous power. Its sealed lead-acid batteries require minimal maintenance while offering predictable runtime and a relatively quick recharge time of 4 hours. The 2U rack form factor and black finish allow straightforward integration into standard server cabinets, and the IP20 rating makes it appropriate for typical indoor data centre and office environments.

Suitable for

• Small to medium server racks and network cabinets
• Critical IT equipment requiring clean sine-wave power
• Switches, routers and communications equipment
• Workstations and storage arrays needing short-term backup

How to use

Install the UPS into a compatible 19-inch rack taking up 2U of space and secure it according to the rack manufacturer's instructions. Connect the mains input using the specified C20 power plug and attach critical loads to the UPS output outlets. Ensure batteries are charged for the recommended 4 hours before relying on full runtime. Monitor the UPS status indicators and any management interface provided by the manufacturer to confirm normal operation and to receive alerts on battery or load conditions.

Usage recommendations

Position the UPS in a temperature-controlled, dust-reduced indoor environment consistent with IP20 protection. Verify ventilation around the 2U unit and avoid placing heavy items on top. Periodically check battery health and follow the manufacturer's guidance for battery replacement intervals. For extended runtime, consider external battery solutions from the same manufacturer that are compatible with the 72 V battery architecture.
