Product Information

Full details

The CyberPower OLS3000ERT2UA is a True Online Double Conversion UPS designed for mission-critical applications like servers, surveillance systems, and emergency equipment. It offers a robust 3000VA/2700W output with pure sine wave power and a flexible 2U rack/tower convertible design. While it provides superior power protection and efficiency with features like ECO Mode and Extended Runtime readiness, users should be aware of its significant weight and the potential complexity of advanced configuration.

FAQs

What is True Online Double Conversion?

True Online Double Conversion topology continuously regenerates the AC power. It converts incoming AC power to DC, then back to AC, providing a perfectly clean and stable sine wave output with zero transfer time during power disturbances. This offers the highest level of protection.

What is the difference between Rackmount and Tower form factors?

Rackmount units are designed to be installed in a standard server rack, typically taking up 2U of vertical space. Tower units are designed to stand upright on a desk or floor. The OLS3000ERT2UA is convertible, meaning it can be used in either configuration.

How do I know if my equipment is compatible?

The OLS3000ERT2UA provides a pure sine wave output, making it compatible with virtually all AC-powered equipment, including sensitive electronics, servers, NAS devices, and Active PFC power supplies. Ensure the total power consumption of your connected devices does not exceed the UPS's 2700W capacity.

What does 'Extended Runtime Ready' mean?

It means the UPS can be connected to additional CyberPower Extended Battery Modules (EBMs) to increase the backup time during power outages. The UPS automatically detects the number of connected EBMs to estimate the extended runtime.

How long do the batteries last?

The internal Sealed Lead Acid (VRLA) batteries have a typical lifespan of 3 to 5 years, depending on usage conditions, ambient temperature, and the frequency/duration of power events.

Can I manage this UPS remotely?

Yes, the OLS3000ERT2UA is compatible with an optional SNMP/HTTP Remote Management Card (RMCARD). This allows you to monitor and control the UPS over a network using CyberPower's PowerPanel® software.

What is ECO Mode?

ECO Mode is an energy-saving feature that bypasses voltage regulation components when the input power is within acceptable limits. This increases efficiency (up to 95%) and reduces heat and energy consumption, though it slightly increases transfer time compared to online mode.

Troubleshooting

UPS does not power on

Ensure the main power cord is securely connected to a live outlet. Verify the circuit breaker on the UPS (if applicable) is not tripped. Check that the input voltage is within the acceptable range.

Audible alarm sounds constantly

Check the LCD screen for specific error codes or messages. Common causes include overload, low battery, or a fault condition. Address the indicated issue. For overload, disconnect non-essential equipment. For low battery, allow the UPS to charge or consider adding EBMs.

Connected equipment is not receiving power

Verify that the UPS is receiving AC power and is not on battery. Check if the UPS is overloaded. Ensure the outlets on the UPS are functional by testing with a known working device.

UPS shows "Overload" status

Immediately disconnect non-essential equipment from the UPS. The total power draw of connected devices exceeds the UPS's capacity. Remove devices until the overload status clears. Consider upgrading to a higher capacity UPS if needed.

Reduced battery runtime

Batteries degrade over time. Check the battery age and health status on the LCD. If batteries are old or show signs of failure, they need replacement. Ensure the UPS is not operating under excessively high temperatures, which can shorten battery life.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides the highest level of power protection with true online double-conversion topology.
  • Delivers clean, pure sine wave output suitable for the most sensitive electronics.
  • Offers flexible deployment with its convertible rack/tower design.
  • Energy efficient with an optional ECO Mode that can reach 95% efficiency.
  • Scalable runtime with support for external battery modules.

Cons

  • Higher initial cost compared to line-interactive or standby UPS systems.
  • Can generate more heat and consume slightly more power in online mode than other topologies.
  • Requires specific input voltage (240V output) which may need separate wiring or configuration.
  • Substantial weight and dimensions require careful placement and installation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Placement: Choose a stable, level surface or install in a standard 2U rack space. Ensure adequate ventilation around the unit, avoiding enclosed spaces that could trap heat. The unit is heavy, so assistance may be required for lifting.
  2. Connections: Connect the UPS to a dedicated, properly grounded power circuit with the appropriate input voltage (refer to local electrical codes and the unit's specifications). Plug your critical equipment into the available C13 and C19 outlets on the rear panel.
  3. Initial Power-Up: Turn on the UPS. The LCD panel will illuminate, displaying system status. Allow the UPS to charge fully before connecting critical loads if possible.
  4. Software Installation: For advanced monitoring and control, connect the USB cable to your server or management workstation and install the PowerPanel® Business Edition software (downloadable from CyberPower's website).
  5. Extended Battery Modules (Optional): If using EBMs, connect them to the UPS according to the EBM's manual before powering on the UPS.

Compatibility:

  • Input Voltage: The UPS is designed to operate within a specific input voltage range (190V - 300V AC). Ensure your power source falls within this range.
  • Output Voltage: The unit provides a 240V output. Verify this is compatible with your connected equipment.
  • Equipment: Compatible with most standard IT equipment, servers, workstations, and network devices. It is particularly well-suited for equipment with Active PFC (Power Factor Correction) power supplies.
  • Management Software: Works with CyberPower's PowerPanel® software for Windows, Linux, and macOS.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the exterior with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
  • Ventilation: Regularly check that vents are clear of dust and obstructions to ensure proper airflow and cooling.
  • Battery Maintenance: The Sealed Lead Acid (VRLA) batteries have a typical lifespan of 3-5 years. Monitor battery health via the LCD panel or software. Replace batteries promptly when indicated to maintain optimal runtime.
  • Firmware: Periodically check the CyberPower website for firmware updates that may improve performance or add features.
