Chapter 1: GXT5 Description The Liebert® GXT5 is a compact, online uninterruptible power system (UPS) that continuously conditions and regulates its output voltage. The Liebert® GXT5 supplies microcomputers and other sensitive equipment with clean sine-wave input power. Upon generation, AC power is clean and stable. However, during transmission and distribution it is subject to voltage sags, spikes, and complete failure that may interrupt computer operations, cause data loss, and damage equipment.

1.8.4. ECO Mode The energy-saving ECO mode reduces power consumption by powering the load via bypass if the bypass voltage is normal or by powering the load via the inverter when the bypass voltage is abnormal. You can use ECO mode to power equipment that is not sensitive to power-grid quality via bypass which reduces the power consumption.

ITEM DESCRIPTION Support bases Spacers with connectors 2. If optional, Liebert® external battery cabinets will be connected, take out the spacers shipped with the battery cabinet. 3. Connect the spacers and the support bases as shown in Figure 2-1 above. Each GXT5 requires 2 support bases, one in the front and one in the rear.
2.3.2. Rack Installation When installed in a rack enclosure, the GXT5 UPS and external battery cabinets (EBC) must be supported by a shelf or rack-mount rails. Because different rack-mount options install in various ways, refer to the installation instructions provided with the rack-mount kit. CAUTION The GXT5 is heavy.
Page 35
• When removing an EBC, turn off the circuit breaker on the rear of the cabinet before disconnecting the cable. • If shipping or storing the UPS for an extended time, disconnect the EBC(s) to minimize stand-by current drain on the batteries which help to maintain design life.
