The Eaton Tripp Lite SmartPro 3000VA UPS is built to be the power backbone of your IT environment. With 3000 VA / 3000 W of clean, reliable sine wave power at 120V, this line-interactive uninterruptible power supply protects servers, network gear, storage devices, and workstations from outages, surges, and voltage fluctuations. Designed for flexible deployment in both rack and tower configurations, the SmartPro 3000VA combines a user-friendly LCD interface, multiple communication options, and an extended run capacity to keep essential systems operating through short-term outages and maintenance windows. Whether you manage a small office network, a remote data center, or a growing enterprise, this UPS delivers steady performance, easy management, and robust protection for mission-critical equipment.

• Reliable, high-capacity power protection: 3000 VA / 3000 W output with sine-wave transfer ensures compatibility with sensitive IT equipment and UPS-rated devices. Line-interactive topology provides automatic voltage regulation (AVR) to correct minor power swings without drawing on battery power, extending runtime for important workloads.
• Flexible mounting and deployment: 2U rack/tower form factor supports rapid installation in server racks or on a floor stand. Seven outlets give you strategic placement for protected devices, plus options for battery-backed outlets to keep critical gear running during outages.
• Comprehensive management and monitoring: Front-panel LCD offers real-time status, load, battery, and input/output information. USB and DB9 serial ports provide local management, while optional network card support enables remote monitoring, SNMP traps, and web-based control for centralized power management.
• Extended run capabilities and practical protection: Designed for extended runtime with optional battery packs, the SmartPro line supports longer outages and graceful shutdowns. Built-in surge suppression, EMI/RFI filtering, and AVR protect connected equipment from common power disturbances.
• Trustworthy for professionals and institutions: TAA-compliant and built for demanding environments, this UPS is suitable for small data centers, IT closets, and government applications that require reliable power backup, quiet operation, and long-term durability.

How to install Eaton SmartPro 3000VA UPS

Follow these steps to install and configure the SmartPro 3000VA UPS for optimal protection and performance:

• Choose the location: Place the UPS on a stable surface or mount it in a 2U rack. Ensure adequate ventilation and keep it away from heat sources and moisture.
• Unpack and inspect: Verify that all accessories are present, including power cords, rack ears (if applicable), and any optional network card components. Check for any shipping damage before installation.
• Connect power to the UPS: Plug the UPS into a dedicated 120V outlet. Avoid using power strips or daisy-chained extensions to prevent nuisance tripping and ensure clean input power.
• Attach protected devices: Connect your critical servers, storage, and networking gear to the battery-backed outlets. Use non-battery outlets for less critical peripherals where appropriate.
• Initial power-up and self-test: Turn on the UPS and run the built-in self-test from the LCD menu to verify inverter operation and battery status. Allow batteries to initialize for several hours for full capacity.
• Configure management options: If you are using the USB connection, install the latest drivers and software to monitor runtime, load, and events. If you have the optional network card, install it according to the card’s instructions and connect to your network for remote power management and SNMP alerts.
• Set preferences: Program critical settings like automatic shutdown thresholds, notification events, and run-time calibrations. Configure alert thresholds and audible alarms to suit your environment.
• Test under load: Simulate a power event by unplugging the inlet power and observing the UPS response, battery discharge, and orderly shutdown sequence for protected servers.
