The APC Symmetra PX 96kW is an online UPS with double-conversion technology, designed for use in critical IT and server environments. The unit provides a rated power of 96 kW / 96 kVA and can be scaled up to 160 kW / 160 kVA. It is configured as a tower system with 42U rack height and is suitable for use in data centers, server rooms, or other facilities requiring uninterrupted power supply. The UPS operates with a three-phase input voltage of 400 V and delivers a three-phase output voltage of 400 V as well as a single-phase voltage of 230 V, with the output voltage also available in values of 380 V, 400 V, and 415 V. The output waveform is sinusoidal, which is required for sensitive electronic equipment and server systems.

Applications
The APC Symmetra PX 96kW is intended for use in critical IT infrastructures such as data centers, server rooms, telecommunications facilities, or industrial control systems. Its high power and scalability enable the supply of multiple servers, storage systems, or network devices with stable and uninterrupted power. The integrated modular power distribution allows for flexible and redundant load distribution, thereby increasing the availability of connected devices. The UPS is designed for indoor use, with an operating temperature range of 0 to 40 °C.

Features and Specifications in Detail
The device includes an emergency power-off (EPO) output, which allows for safe shutdown of the load during emergencies or maintenance. The battery technology is based on VRLA lead-acid batteries, which require minimal maintenance and offer a long service life. The battery recharge time is 3.5 hours, ensuring rapid restoration of backup power after discharge. The noise emission level is 63 dB, which is considered acceptable for a device of this power class. The UPS is equipped with two SmartSlot interfaces, enabling integration of expansion modules such as network management or monitoring modules.

Technology Explained Simply
The double-conversion technology ensures that incoming AC power is converted to DC via a rectifier, and then converted back to clean AC power via an inverter. This guarantees a stable and clean power supply, independent of fluctuations in the public power grid. The efficiency at full load is 95 %, indicating high efficiency and low heat losses. The output frequency is grid-synchronized (50/60 Hz ± 3 Hz) or can be set to 50 Hz ± 0.1 % in non-grid-synchronized mode, which is important for sensitive loads.

Compatibility and Accessories
The UPS features a fixed 5-pole output connector (3P + N + E), suitable for direct connection to power distribution systems or server racks. Scalability up to 160 kW allows for step-by-step power expansion by adding additional modules. The certifications include CE, EN 50091-1, EN/IEC 62040-3, EN/IEC 62040-1-1, FCC Part 15 Class A, and the VFI-SS-111 standard, confirming suitability for critical applications. The UPS does not include batteries in the standard delivery; these must be purchased separately.

Installation and Mounting
The APC Symmetra PX 96kW has dimensions of 1200 mm (W) × 1070 mm (D) × 1991 mm (H) and weighs 1814 kg (net weight). Installation requires a suitable location with sufficient space, ventilation, and access to power and grounding connections. Packaging dimensions are 1696 × 1210 × 2140 mm and gross weight is 1963 kg, indicating professional handling and transportation requirements. Storage should occur at temperatures from -15 to 40 °C and relative humidity from 0 to 95 %, with storage altitude up to 15000 m.

Operational Advantages
High scalability, modular power distribution, and double-conversion technology ensure high availability and reliability of connected systems. Integrated interfaces enable centralized monitoring and control, making maintenance and fault diagnosis more efficient. Low noise emission and high efficiency contribute to energy-efficient operation. The UPS is designed for use in critical infrastructures, where power interruption could lead to data loss or service outages.

Note: The sources provide slightly varying information regarding output voltage (230 V / 400 V vs. 380–415 V). The specification of 380, 400/415 V from source 1 is used here as primary, as it is explicitly marked as a Note. The 230 V/400 V specification from source 3 is also correct, as 400 V refers to three-phase voltage and 230 V to single-phase voltage.
