Uninterruptible Power Supply Eaton 5PX3000IRT2UG2

Eaton 5PX Gen2 UPS delivers high efficiency, accurate energy metering and straightforward management for IT environments. The UPS provides unity power factor (W=VA) capability, offering 11% more usable power compared with many alternatives. It is Energy Star 2.0 certified for reduced energy consumption and lower cooling costs, and supplies a clean output in battery mode suitable for sensitive equipment such as active PFC servers. Battery configurations are optimized for a favorable size-to-runtime ratio.

Advantages

The integrated graphical LCD shows operating information at a glance and simplifies commissioning and configuration. Netpack models include an Eaton Gigabit network management card with dual cybersecurity certifications (UL 2900-1 and IEC 62443-4-2) and support Eaton Cyber Secured Monitoring. Remote UPS settings and firmware updates are possible for easier fleet management and lower maintenance costs. The UPS meters energy consumption down to managed outlet groups (kWh) and integrates with Eaton Intelligent Power Software for monitoring and control across virtualization and cloud orchestration environments.

How to use

Install the 5PX Gen2 in the chosen form factor (RT2U for rack mounting or RT3U for tower/short-depth racks) using the included rail kit or pedestal. Connect critical equipment to the prioritized outlet groups and configure load segment control to protect essential devices during extended outages. Use the graphical LCD for local monitoring and initial setup, or install Eaton Intelligent Power Software and the Gigabit network card for remote monitoring, configuration and firmware updates. For extended runtime, add up to four compatible external hot-swappable battery modules and verify ABM charging settings to maintain battery health.

Recommendations

For best results, size the UPS to account for actual equipment wattage (taking advantage of the unity power factor), enable load segment prioritization for non-essential shutdowns, and integrate the UPS with Eaton Intelligent Power Software and the Gigabit network card to maintain cybersecurity-certified remote management and energy visibility.
