Minuteman Endeavor ED3000RTXL2U 3000VA Tower/Rack/Wall Mountable UPS

In today’s 24/7 business environment, downtime isn’t an option. The Minuteman Endeavor ED3000RTXL2U is an online, double-conversion UPS designed to protect critical applications with industry-leading reliability. With a 3000 VA capacity and a flexible 2U form factor, this UPS can be deployed as a compact tower, a robust rack unit, or a wall-mountable power solution, giving you maximum versatility for data centers, server rooms, and critical infrastructure. The Endeavor LCD interface delivers real-time analytics, battery status, and system diagnostics at a glance, enabling proactive maintenance and rapid response to power disturbances. Engineered for servers, networking devices, storage systems, and workstations, the ED3000RTXL2U delivers clean, stable power with ultra-low transfer times, helping you minimize downtime and safeguard your most important data.

• Premium online double-conversion protection that continuously regenerates clean power with precise voltage regulation, zero transfer time, and excellent protection against surges, sags, and outages. This ensures consistent performance for servers, storage, and network gear, even under demanding loads.
• Flexible installation options to fit your environment. The ED3000RTXL2U combines a compact 2U rack height with a versatile form factor that supports tower, rack, and wall-mount configurations. It ships with mounting rails and feet, enabling seamless integration into existing cabinets or on the floor beside critical equipment.
• User-friendly Endeavor LCD interface for easy monitoring and configuration. Real-time metrics such as input/output voltage, load level, battery status, and estimated runtime are clearly displayed. Programmable parameters—including output voltage, alarm thresholds, and self-test scheduling—provide granular control without specialized software.
• Efficient power management with scalable runtime. The ED3000RTXL2U supports hot-swappable external battery packs to extend runtime for longer outages, making it suitable for data centers or locations with intermittent power. It also leverages advanced converter technology to maximize efficiency during normal operation, reducing energy costs without compromising protection.
• Comprehensive connectivity and remote management. USB and RS-232 interfaces enable local monitoring, while an optional Network Management Card provides SNMP, email alerts, and remote shutdown capabilities. Centralized management simplifies maintenance windows and alerts across multiple sites.

How to install Minuteman Endeavor ED3000RTXL2U

• Plan the installation location with adequate ventilation and clearance around vents to prevent overheating. Decide whether you will mount as a tower, rack, or wall-mount unit and gather the necessary mounting hardware.
• Unpack the unit and inspect for any shipping damage. Verify that all included mounting rails, feet, and cables are present before proceeding.
• Mount the ED3000RTXL2U in the chosen configuration. Use the provided rack ears for rack installation, attach feet for tower orientation, or mount on the wall according to the hardware guidelines. Ensure the unit is level and secure.
• Connect the input power cord to a dedicated electrical outlet that matches the UPS input specification. Avoid daisy-chaining or sharing the outlet with high-draw equipment to prevent nuisance tripping.
• Plug critical devices into the battery-backed outlets (or as configured) and non-critical devices into surge-protected outlets if available. Power up the UPS and verify that the LCD screen initializes correctly.
• Configure the Endeavor LCD settings for your environment: set the output voltage, language, alarm thresholds, self-test schedule, and any energy-saving modes. Run a self-test to confirm operation and verify that the connected devices remain powered during the test.
• Optionally install the Network Management Card for remote monitoring. Configure SNMP, email alerts, and remote shutdown as needed, then test the remote management features to ensure alerts and control commands are received on your monitoring platform.

Frequently asked questions

• Q: What is the capacity of the ED3000RTXL2U? A: It provides up to 3000 VA (approximately 2400 W) of backup power, suitable for mid-size servers, storage arrays, and core networking gear. Actual runtime depends on the load and battery condition.
• Q: Can the unit be mounted in a rack, tower, or on a wall? A: Yes. The ED3000RTXL2U is designed for flexible installation, including rack-mount (2U), tower, and wall-mount configurations, making it adaptable to data centers, server rooms, and office environments.
• Q: How can I monitor and manage this UPS? A: The UPS includes USB and RS-232 connections for local monitoring, with an optional Network Management Card available for remote management via SNMP, email alerts, and remote shutdown capabilities.
• Q: Are the batteries user-serviceable? A: The ED3000RTXL2U uses hot-swappable external battery packs to extend runtime and simplify maintenance without powering down protected equipment.
• Q: What affects runtime? A: Runtime is primarily determined by the load on the UPS and the health of the battery packs. Heavier loads reduce runtime, while lighter loads provide longer backup periods. For precise estimates, refer to the user manual’s battery runtime curves and use the load calculator.
