How to Install Eaton 9PX 10kVA 9kW UPS

• Plan your rack space: Confirm the UPS will occupy 6U in a ventilated rack, with adequate clearance for airflow and maintenance access.
• Mount the unit in the rack: Secure the UPS using compatible rails or mounting hardware per the installation guide to ensure stable operation and safe serviceability.
• Connect the input power: Run the hardwired input to a dedicated, properly protected power source using the L6-30R connection. Verify the circuit breaker sizing and ensure the input supply matches the UPS rating.
• Connect the outputs to critical loads: Use the two L14-30R receptacles for essential equipment and establish the hardwired output path for downstream critical devices as required by your data center or edge environment.
• Install the Cybersecure Network Card: Insert the network management card into the designated slot and connect it to your secure management network. Configure access controls, SNMP/HTTP settings, and alert preferences.
• Configure basic UPS settings: Set input voltage range, output voltage, frequency, transfer points, and battery test schedules. Enable automatic shutdown or safe power-off policies for protected equipment if needed.
• Calibrate and verify alarms: Confirm that alarms, notifications, and status indicators operate correctly. Run a healthy battery test to validate discharge and recharge cycles.
• Test under load: Apply load representative of your critical devices and verify clean output, response to simulated outages, and graceful shutdown sequences if programmed.
• Document the configuration: Record the network card IP address, login credentials, runtime capacity, and connected loads for future maintenance and audits.

Frequently asked questions

• What does 10kVA / 9kW mean in this Eaton UPS? The 10kVA rating reflects apparent power capacity, while 9kW indicates the real power (active) rating. This UPS can support up to 9 kilowatts of continuous load, with the ability to handle power factor variations typical in IT gear, ensuring stable operation for servers and network equipment.
• Why choose a split-phase 120/208V UPS? Split-phase output accommodates equipment designed for both 120V and 208V systems, enabling flexible deployment across different regions and devices, while maintaining efficient performance and reducing the need for extra transformers or distribution modules.
• What is Extended Run and how does it help me? Extended Run is a capability that allows you to add battery modules to lengthen runtime during outages. This is especially valuable for edge deployments or remote sites where outages may last longer than the internal battery can support, helping you keep critical systems online.
• What does the Cybersecure Network Card do? The Cybersecure Network Card provides secure, remote monitoring and management of the UPS. It enables integration with IT service management tools, automates alerts, and helps your team respond quickly to power events while maintaining tight access control and security.
• What loads can I protect with this Eaton 9PX UPS? This model is designed to protect essential IT infrastructure, including servers, storage devices, networking gear, and other critical equipment in data centers and edge environments. By delivering clean power and reliable runtime, it minimizes data loss and equipment damage during power disturbances.
• Is installation safe for non-electrical staff? Due to electrical safety considerations, installation and hardwiring should be performed by qualified personnel in accordance with local electrical codes and the UPS manual. The Cybersecure Network Card setup, on the other hand, can be performed by IT staff once the physical connections are secure.
