How to install Eaton 9px 10kVA 9kW 120/208V Split-Phase Online Double-Conversion UPS - Hardwire

• Step 1: Plan and prepare—confirm electrical service capacity, space, ventilation, and clearance around the UPS for service access and cooling; verify that the installation site complies with local electrical codes and manufacturer guidance.
• Step 2: Power and grounding—have a licensed electrician wire the unit to the main distribution panel using appropriate gauge conductors; connect a dedicated grounded circuit and ensure proper grounding according to NEC or local codes.
• Step 3: Positioning—place the UPS in a stable location with adequate air flow; consider rack-mount or free-standing configuration per model and ensure maintenance accessibility for battery modules and connections.
• Step 4: Electrical connections—attach the hardwired input and output cables to the UPS, route cabling neatly, and secure strain-relief connections to prevent movement and wear during operation.
• Step 5: Load and battery setup—connect critical loads to the output distribution, attach any optional battery modules or expansions as specified by your configuration, and verify that the battery strings are communicating with the UPS controllers.
• Step 6: Initialization and testing—power the unit and perform a controlled load test to confirm regulation, transfer behavior, and audible alerts; configure monitoring software or network cards for proactive alerts and remote management.

Frequently asked questions

• Q: What does 10 kVA / 9 kW mean in practical terms? A: It indicates the maximum apparent power (kVA) the UPS can deliver and the real power (kW) it can supply to connected equipment. Real-world runtime depends on the load and battery configuration, but the system is designed to protect critical IT gear during power disturbances and outages.
• Q: Why choose a split-phase 120/208V UPS? A: Split-phase 120/208V is common in many commercial buildings and data centers, enabling efficient distribution to racks, PDUs, and networks while maintaining standard voltages for IT equipment.
• Q: What does “online double-conversion” mean for uptime? A: Online double-conversion ensures continuous, conditioned power by converting incoming AC to DC and then back to AC, avoiding outages during voltage sags and maintaining clean, regulated output even during grid fluctuations.
• Q: Can I upgrade runtime? A: Yes. Runtime can be extended with additional battery modules or by selecting a configuration with larger battery capacity; consult Eaton’s options and your local distributor for specifics.
• Q: Is this UPS designed for data centers? A: Absolutely. The Eaton 9px family is intended for servers, storage, networking gear, and other critical IT assets within data centers and enterprise IT rooms, offering robust protection in hot and demanding environments.
• Q: How do I monitor the UPS health? A: The unit includes built-in management features and can connect to Eaton's software suite or compatible network cards for remote monitoring, alerting, temperature reporting, and event logs.
