Shop the APC Symmetra PX lineup: the modular scalable 3-phase double-conversion online UPS for large data centers, mission-critical IT, and N+1 redundant deployments. Models include APC Symmetra PX 32kVA (SY32K96H), 150kVA (SY150K250D), and matching power module + battery module variants. Symmetra PX is APC's flagship 3-phase modular line.
Symmetra PX highlights: modular hot-swap power modules (10kW, 16kW, 25kW per module), modular hot-swap battery modules, 3-phase 208V/400V/480V input, internal static bypass, N+1 redundancy at module level (single power module failure doesn't drop the load), optional NMC2/NMC3 SNMP management, EcoStruxure cloud monitoring.
Symmetra PX requires factory-trained commissioning. Contact our service partner for Canada-wide enterprise APC service. Replacement battery modules? See our APC Symmetra Replacement Batteries.
The APC by Schneider Electric Symmetra PX is a modular, online double-conversion (true online) UPS platform built for data centers, server rooms, and other high-density, three-phase critical loads. It sits at the upper end of the APC lineup, above the single-phase Smart-UPS and Smart-UPS On-Line ranges, and is designed for facilities that need scalable, redundant power protection with full power-conditioning. Across this collection the systems run from 10 kW up to 150 kW (scalable to 250 kW), all delivering a pure sine wave output. This page is for buyers sizing and selecting a Symmetra PX system to purchase; if you already own one and need cells, see the replacement-battery hub linked below.
The representative models below are built from each product's own specifications. The full range is listed further down this page.

Size by watts, not just VA. Your real constraint is the load's wattage (W / kW). Symmetra PX models are rated in both VA and W; on the frames in APC's data sheets the kVA and kW figures are equal (for example the SY30K40F is 30,000 VA / 30,000 W). Total the wattage of everything you intend to protect, add headroom for growth, and choose a model whose watt rating clears that total comfortably.
Set runtime expectations. The Symmetra PX is engineered for short, clean ride-through to cover utility sags and to bridge to a generator: not for hours of standalone runtime. The internal-battery figures on these systems run roughly 3.7 to 7 minutes at full load and 14 to 19 minutes at half load. Most systems in this collection accept added battery modules or cabinets for longer hold-up; APC lists the SY40K100F, SY60K100F and SY80K100F frames as not extendable, so check each product page.
Topology. The entire Symmetra PX series is online double-conversion: the load is continuously fed from the inverter, with a pure sine wave output. This is the highest level of protection and the standard expectation for data-center and mission-critical loads: a step beyond the line-interactive topology used in smaller desktop and network UPS classes.
Tower vs. rack. Most Symmetra PX systems in this collection are floor-standing tower / frame units suited to a data-center row; a few (such as the SY32K96H tower/rack-convertible) fit rack or convertible deployments. Confirm the form factor and output voltage (208V, 230V and 415/480V across this range) match your facility's electrical and physical layout before ordering.
These are APC by Schneider Electric Symmetra PX systems, shipped from Canada with Canadian-based support. APC's data sheets list a 12-month warranty for the Symmetra PX frames; check the individual product page for the warranty that applies to the unit you are buying. If you need help sizing a system or planning extended runtime, contact our team before you order.

What topology does the Symmetra PX use?
Online double-conversion (true online) with a pure sine wave output. The load runs continuously off the inverter.
What capacity range does this series cover?
The systems in this collection span 10 kW up to 150 kW (scalable to 250 kW), with many models sold scalable so you can add power modules as your load grows.
How much runtime do these units provide?
On internal batteries, roughly 3.7 to 7 minutes at full load and about 14 to 19 minutes at half load, depending on model. Most systems accept add-on battery modules or cabinets for longer hold-up; the SY40K100F, SY60K100F and SY80K100F frames are listed by APC as not extendable.
Should I size by VA or by watts?
Size by watts. Total the real-power draw (W / kW) of your equipment, add growth headroom, and pick a model whose watt rating clears it. On the frames in APC's data sheets VA and W are equal, but always check the watt figure.
Are these tower or rack units?
Most are floor-standing tower / frame systems; a few are tower/rack-convertible. Check the form factor on each product page against your facility layout.
