The MGE Galaxy 3500 from APC by Schneider Electric is a centralized, double-conversion online UPS platform built for facilities and data-room power protection. Every unit in this series uses true online (double-conversion) topology with a pure sine wave output, delivering hard-wired, conditioned power for critical loads. These are floor-standing tower systems offered from 10 kVA up to 30 kVA, hard-wire 5-wire, with 120 V / 208 V output. The Galaxy 3500 sits in APC's three-phase, mid-range centralized UPS lineup, above single-phase Smart-UPS rack and tower units and below larger Galaxy frames. It suits buyers who need always-on, conditioned power for servers, network rooms, telecom, medical, and light-industrial loads.
Representative configurations from the range we stock are shown below. Runtimes vary by battery configuration, which the model code carries: se.com names the G35T20KF3B4S "MGE Galaxy 3500 20kVA 208V with 3 Battery Modules Expandable to 4". See the full range below for every available build.

Size by VA and watts. The Galaxy 3500 is rated in kVA (apparent power). Add up the load of everything you need to protect, then leave 20 to 25% headroom so the UPS is not running at 100%. A 10 kVA frame suits smaller server/network rooms; 20 to 30 kVA frames suit larger centralized loads. If your equipment lists watts only, remember kVA is always equal to or larger than the kW figure.
Expect runtime to depend on battery build. Within the same kVA, runtime changes with the battery configuration: across this series a 10 kVA unit ranges from roughly 38.8 minutes to 56.3 minutes at full load, while a 30 kVA unit runs about 5.7 to 9.8 minutes at full load. Every model here is extended-runtime capable, so additional battery modules can lengthen hold-up time. Pick the build whose full-load runtime covers your generator start or graceful-shutdown window.
Topology. The entire Galaxy 3500 series is online double-conversion. Unlike line-interactive designs, a double-conversion UPS continuously rebuilds the output as a clean pure sine wave, the standard for centralized and mission-critical protection.
Form factor. These are floor-standing tower units with hard-wire 5-wire input/output (120 V / 208 V), intended for permanent electrical installation rather than plug-in rack use.
These are APC by Schneider Electric UPS systems shipped from Canada, with Canadian-based sales support to help you size and configure the right model. Refer to each product page for its current warranty terms and battery configuration.

Is the MGE Galaxy 3500 an online or line-interactive UPS?
Online double-conversion. Every model in this series continuously regenerates a pure sine wave output.
What sizes are available?
This series spans 10 kVA, 15 kVA, 20 kVA, and 30 kVA tower configurations, with multiple battery builds per size.
How long will it run on battery?
Runtime depends on the kVA and battery build. At full load, examples in this range run from about 5.7 minutes (30 kVA) up to about 56.3 minutes (10 kVA). All models are extended-runtime capable for longer hold-up.
Does it plug into a wall outlet?
No. These are hard-wire 5-wire tower units at 120 V / 208 V and require a permanent electrical connection by a qualified electrician.
Are these units new?
Yes: new APC units, unless the listing says refurbished, shipped from Canada.
