AEU separating screw

The Electronics Unit separating screw is turned counterclockwise to remove the EU for service. If this action is taken while the UPS is on-line, the UPS will automatically transfer to bypass operation. See the Difficulty section of this manual for the proper EU replacement procedure.

Note: The UPS’s display is blank when the EU separating screw is loosened. Control of the UPS is regained when the screw is tightened and any control button is pressed.

BWiring inspection cover

When removed, the wiring inspection cover reveals the output wiring connections to the UPS. It is necessary to inspect the connections during installation as the wires may move when the power distribution plate is reattached. See the Installation section of this manual.

CPower distribution plate

The standard furnished power distribution plate is removable for access to the input and output wiring terminations, and to the input voltage selection taps. Optional power distribution plates with wiring devices other than those provided as standard can be ordered from the factory and installed in the field.

Cx IEC 320 C13 receptacles

A total of eight IEC 320 C13 outlets are provided for multiple small loads.

Cy IEC 320 C13 receptacle circuit breaker

Each row of quad IEC 320 C13 output receptacles is protected by a 12 Amp circuit breaker. This protection is necessary because the UPS is capable of delivering more than the receptacle's maximum current rating.

DElectrical fittings knockouts

Knockouts appropriate for use with 0.75-in. (19 mm) and 1-in. (25 mm) electrical cable clamp fittings are provided at the input cable plate, and at the output power distribution plate.

EInput cable plate

The input cable plate is removed during the input wiring installation.

3000, 5000 specifications

American Power Conversion (APC) has long been a leader in the manufacturing of uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), and among its range of products, the APC 5000 and 3000 series stand out for their robust performance and reliability. These UPS systems are designed to ensure a continuous flow of power, protecting sensitive electronic equipment from fluctuations and outages.

The APC 5000 and 3000 models boast a range of key features that make them suitable for both commercial and residential applications. One of the primary characteristics is their high power capacity. The 5000 model provides a substantial 5000VA/4500W output, while the 3000 variant offers 3000VA/2700W. This enables users to connect multiple devices and critical loads without the risk of overload.

Both models utilize advanced double conversion technology, which ensures that the output power is consistently clean and stable. This technology is crucial for sensitive electronics, as it filters out voltage irregularities, providing pure sine wave output. This characteristic is particularly important for equipment like servers, data centers, and networking hardware, as it enhances their longevity and operational efficiency.

Another notable feature is their extended battery runtime capability. The APC 5000 and 3000 units are designed with hot-swappable batteries, allowing for easy replacement without interrupting the power supply. This enhances the overall reliability of the system, ensuring that even during maintenance, equipment remains operational.

In terms of connectivity, both models come equipped with multiple outlets for various plug types, as well as USB and network ports for monitoring and management. The integration with APC's PowerChute software allows users to manage power preferences, monitor battery health, and receive alerts when attention is needed. This level of monitoring is essential for facilities management teams, allowing them to ensure continuous operations without power-related disruptions.

The APC 5000 and 3000 also feature robust thermal management systems. With built-in fans, these units ensure efficient airflow and heat dissipation, protecting internal components from damage due to overheating.

In conclusion, the APC 5000 and 3000 series represent a powerful solution for those seeking reliable power protection. With their advanced technologies, multiple connectivity options, and serviceability features, these UPS systems stand out as trusted components in any power management strategy. Whether in a data center or a home office, the reliability and efficiency of these models make them invaluable in today’s power-dependent environment.
