Middle Atlantic UPS-LO-3000RT – 3000VA Online Rack/Tower UPS, 120V

Product Overview

The Middle Atlantic UPS-LO-3000RT is a 3.0kVA, 120V online UPS built to protect critical hardware in AV, security, networking, and broadcast systems. Automatic voltage regulation corrects voltage irregularities without switching to battery, preserving battery life while keeping sensitive electronics on clean power. Pure sinewave output and an ultra-low transfer time make it appropriate for the most sensitive rack-mounted equipment in commercial installations. A convertible rack/tower design with an included 4-post mounting kit lets integrators deploy it in equipment racks or as a freestanding unit.

Product Description

Power anomalies are one of the most common causes of failures and service calls in commercial AV deployment. The UPS-LO-3000RT addresses this with automatic voltage regulation (AVR) that conditions incoming power and corrects sags and swells without transferring to battery, so batteries are reserved for true outages. When a transfer is required, the ultra-low transfer time moves the load from AC to battery quickly enough to keep processors, switchers, recorders, and network equipment running without interruption.

Output is pure sinewave, the ideal waveform for sensitive amplifiers, DSPs, servers, and broadcast gear, and the wide input voltage range maintains stable operation across varied site power conditions. With a 0.9 input power factor, the unit delivers optimized efficiency at full load. A programmable outlet bank gives installers control of load segments, allowing non-critical loads to shed first and extending battery runtime for mission-critical equipment. For managed sites, the optional UPS-LIP-1 network card adds remote management through a single portal, providing visibility and control of power usage and available capacity on-site or at a remote unmanned facility — a meaningful service advantage for integrators supporting multiple buildings. The included 4-post rack mounting kit simplifies installation in standard equipment racks, while included feet support stable tower placement in non-rack applications. Pair it with Middle Atlantic racks and power distribution for a complete protected equipment build.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

What equipment is the UPS-LO-3000RT designed to protect?
It is built for critical hardware in AV, security, networking, and broadcast systems — processors, switchers, servers, recorders, and network equipment that require clean, uninterrupted power.

Does it correct voltage problems without draining the battery?
Yes. Automatic voltage regulation corrects voltage irregularities without switching to battery, reserving battery capacity for actual outages and extending battery service life.

Is the output safe for sensitive audio and video equipment?
Yes. The UPS delivers pure sinewave output, the ideal waveform for the most sensitive equipment, including DSPs, amplifiers, and broadcast gear.

Can I manage this UPS remotely?
Yes, with the optional UPS-LIP-1 network card. It provides a single portal with visibility and control of power usage and available capacity, whether on-site or at a remote unmanned facility.

How does the programmable outlet bank help during an outage?
The power management outlets allow programmable control of load segments, so non-critical loads can be shed to extend battery runtime for mission-critical equipment.

Can it be installed outside of a rack?
Yes. In addition to the included 4-post rack mounting kit, the unit includes feet for stable tower placement in non-rack applications.

What warranty and support are available?
The UPS-LO-3000RT is covered by Middle Atlantic's manufacturer warranty. Creation Networks is an authorized dealer and can assist with sizing, accessories, and project pricing.
