How to install Eaton 9PX 2200VA 2000W 208V Online Double-Conversion UPS

Follow these general steps to deploy the Eaton 9PX 2200VA UPS in a rack or as a tower, ensuring proper placement, connections, and monitoring configuration for optimal performance.

• Choose a well-ventilated, cool location with adequate clearance for airflow and safe accessibility for service. Decide between rack-mount or tower orientation based on your data-center layout and equipment needs.
• Mount the unit in a standard 19-inch rack slot (2U height) or place it on a stable pedestal if using the tower configuration. Secure the chassis according to your rack’s guidelines to minimize vibration and movement.
• Connect the 208V power source to the L6-20P input connector, ensuring the circuit can handle the expected load. Verify that the input circuit protection and wiring meet local electrical codes.
• Plug critical devices into the UPS’s 8 x C13 and 2 x C19 outlets. Group mission-critical servers, storage, and network devices on prioritized outlets, and keep less critical gear on secondary outlets to optimize load management and battery runtime.
• If you plan to enable remote management, install the optional Cybersecure Network Card per the product manual and configure the UPS management software or monitoring platform to receive status alerts, perform graceful shutdowns, and log events securely.
• Power on the UPS, run the built-in self-test, and verify battery status. If you anticipate longer outages, review runtime estimates and plan for any required battery expansion to meet your availability targets.
