About the APC Symmetra LX 8kVA Scalable to 16kVA Tower SYA8K16IXR

The APC Symmetra LX SYA8K16IXR is a tower UPS rated at 8 kVA / 5600 W and, as its name indicates, scalable to 16 kVA. It delivers single-phase sine wave output and accepts single-phase input at 220 or 240 V, with a maximum input current of 36 A. Output connection is hard wire 3-wire (1PH + N + G), and the unit includes Emergency Power Off (EPO) capability.

Typical backup time is 122.6 minutes at half load and 57.4 minutes at full load, with a battery recharge time of 7.5 hours. Batteries are end-user replaceable using the SYBT5 replacement battery cartridge, and the unit has no preferred mounting position.

This UPS suits server rooms, network closets and other IT environments that need conditioned backup power for critical equipment, with room to expand capacity as power requirements grow.
