Eaton Tripp Lite SmartOnline 2200VA UPS

Protect critical equipment from power disturbances with the Eaton Tripp Lite Series SmartOnline 2200VA Double-Conversion UPS. This on-line, double-conversion UPS delivers perfect output by continuously converting AC input to DC and then reconverting to a fully regulated sine-wave AC output. The result is a pristine power supply that isolates sensitive servers, storage devices, and network infrastructure from voltage sags, surges, outages, and other disturbances on the electrical grid. Designed for data centers, telecom closets, and enterprise IT rooms, this unit combines reliable power protection with flexible management, a compact 2U footprint, and a scalable runtime to keep essential systems online during brief outages and across longer interruptions alike.

• Online double-conversion protection: Maintains a constant, clean output regardless of input fluctuations, ensuring stable operation for critical equipment and preventing data corruption and unexpected shutdowns.
• 208/230V input and output with robust capacity: 2200 VA / 2000 W capacity supports servers, storage devices, and networking gear while keeping power quality consistent across devices.
• Extended Run capability: Designed for longer outages, with options to add battery modules to extend runtime and maximize uptime during emergencies.
• Comprehensive management features: LCD display plus USB and DB9 ports for local management, maintenance, and diagnostics; optional network card enables remote monitoring, email alerts, and secure shutdowns.
• Flexible form factor and deployment: A 2U rack/tower chassis that fits easily in dense data centers or office server rooms; field-replaceable batteries and simple maintenance help minimize downtime during service.

How to install Eaton Tripp Lite SmartOnline 2200VA UPS

Unpack the UPS and verify all components are present. Choose a stable, well-ventilated location with adequate clearance for air flow and access to service panels. For rack installations, mount the unit in a compatible 2U rack with secure mounting hardware; if you select a tower configuration, ensure the unit is on a solid, level surface capable of supporting the weight of the UPS and connected loads.

Connect the loads to the protected outlets on the UPS. Identify critical devices such as servers, storage, and network gear, and place them on the battery-backed outlets to maximize uptime during a power event. Leave non-essential peripherals on standard, non-battery outlets if available.

Connect the input power cable to a dedicated circuit that matches the UPS input requirements (208/230 VAC). Avoid shared circuits with heavy motor loads to minimize input disturbances. Once connected, power on the UPS to begin its internal checks and battery commissioning sequence.

Install the optional network management card if remote monitoring and centralized shutdown control are required. Insert the card into the designated slot and configure network settings (IP address, SNMP community strings, alerts) via the LCD interface or the included management software. If you plan to use USB or DB9 for local management, install the USB cable or connect the serial interface to a local computer to perform initial configuration.

Use the LCD display to verify configuration, run a self-test, and adjust basic settings such as language, alert thresholds, and notification methods. Perform a battery test during a low-load window to confirm that the runtime and charging behavior meet your expectations. Finally, document the UPS position, connected loads, and network management settings for ongoing IT operations and disaster recovery planning.
