Tripp Lite SUINT1500RTXL2U, SU1500RTXL2UHV Front Panel Switches, Front Panel Indicator Lights

Basic Operation

“ON/TEST” Switch: This switch controls four separate UPS functions:

UPS Power ON

To turn the UPS on, press this switch, hold it for several seconds until you hear a beep, then release it. The “ON LINE” LED will illuminate.

UPS Self-Test

During normal on-line operation, press this switch and hold it until you hear a beep. This initiates a 10-second self-test of the battery. The UPS will shift to battery power (the “ON BATT” and “BATT ACTIVE METER” LEDs will illuminate) for ten seconds.

Alarm Silence

To silence the UPS “on-battery” alarm, press this switch and hold it until you hear a beep.

UPS Cold Start

To use your UPS as a stand-alone power source when AC power is unavailable (i.e. during a blackout), press this switch and hold it until you hear a beep. The UPS will then provide battery power to its outlets.*

*The “ON BATT” Indicator Light will be illuminated since your UPS will be operating from battery power.

“OFF” Switch: This switch turns power OFF at the UPS receptacles. Press this switch, hold it until you hear a beep, then release it. The UPS will continue charging and the fan will continue to cool internal components even after you turn the UPS receptacles off. To turn the UPS OFF completely, including the charger, disconnect the UPS’s power cord after pressing the “OFF” switch.

Front Panel Indicator Lights

“ON LINE” LED: This green light will illuminate constantly to indicate the UPS is performing normal on-line operation (filtering and resynthesizing incoming AC line voltage to provide pure sine wave output). When this light is illuminated, you can monitor the load level of your UPS on the “LOAD ACTIVE METER” LEDs.

“LINE” LED: This green light will illuminate constantly to indicate the utility supplied AC line voltage at your wall outlet is nominal. It will flash if the line voltage is outside the nominal range (either too low or two high). No action is required on your part when the LED flashes; the UPS continuously and automatically filters AC line power to provide your equipment with pure sine wave AC power, regardless of brownout or overvoltage conditions. If this light is off, then AC line voltage is not present (blackout) or is at an extremely high voltage, and the UPS will provide connected equipment with power from battery.

SU1500RTXL2UHV, SUINT1500RTXL2U, SU1500RTXL2U specifications

The Tripp Lite SU1500RTXL2U is a versatile and reliable uninterruptible power supply (UPS) designed to provide protection for critical electronic equipment in various environments. With a power capacity of 1500 VA and a power output of 1000 Watts, this UPS is ideal for small servers, network equipment, and other sensitive devices that require consistent and uninterrupted power.

One of the standout features of the SU1500RTXL2U is its ability to offer extended runtime configurations. The unit includes a built-in battery, but it is also compatible with additional external battery packs that can be connected to prolong the UPS's runtime during power outages. This capability is particularly useful for businesses that cannot afford downtime and require extended periods of operation during an electrical failure.

Equipped with line-interactive technology, the SU1500RTXL2U provides reliable voltage regulation. It automatically adjusts voltage levels to maintain optimal power supply conditions, ensuring that connected devices receive a stable output. This feature significantly reduces the risk of damage from power surges, sags, and other irregularities.

Additionally, this Tripp Lite model features eight NEMA 5-15R outlets, allowing multiple devices to be connected simultaneously. It provides a combination of battery backup and surge protection, safeguarding equipment against potential damage from power spikes or outages. The UPS also includes an LCD screen that offers real-time information on battery status, load capacity, and input/output voltages, enabling users to monitor performance easily.

The SU1500RTXL2U is designed with user-friendliness in mind. Its compact 2U rack-mountable form factor facilitates easy installation in standard network racks or server rooms. The built-in smart management software ensures seamless integration with most operating systems, allowing users to configure settings and monitor the UPS through their computers.

Furthermore, the SU1500RTXL2U is equipped with an automatic voltage regulation (AVR) feature, enabling it to maintain consistent output voltage levels without draining the battery. This not only enhances operational efficiency but also extends the lifespan of the unit's batteries.

In conclusion, the Tripp Lite SU1500RTXL2U is an exceptional UPS solution equipped with essential features that ensure the reliability and stability of power supply for sensitive equipment. Its extended runtime options, line-interactive technology, and user-friendly design make it an indispensable asset for any organization relying on uninterrupted power.
