Battery Backup and VFI Operation Protect Critical Loads The SmartOnline ® S3M120KX IGBT UPS supports the continuous availability of your most important loads through all power conditions, providing a compact backup power platform that's easy to manage and inexpensive to operate. Sophisticated voltage and frequency independent (VFI) operation and advanced IGBT rectifier technology with DSP control deliver reliable output power quality. Providing up to 120kVA of clean, continuous power, this 3-phase UPS system is perfect for critical applications in IT, communications, corporate, commercial, retail, financial, security, transportation, emergency and light industrial environments. Best-in-Class Footprint for Easy Integration into Your Network Application This on-line double-conversion UPS system has a very small footprint of just 0.54 square meters. It requires less valuable space in your data center, and you can install the UPS system in spaces that would previously have required expensive retrofitting. Efficient Operation and Design Reduces Cost of Ownership This IGBT UPS benefits from highly efficient transformer-free double-conversion technology that delivers operating cost savings. It achieves 94% efficiency in double-conversion mode and up to 98% in ECO mode, reducing your power and cooling costs. A low THDi (<3%) improves generator compatibility. A low THDv (≤2%) and active power factor correction improve output performance. The hardware and firmware platform design reduces the number of unique boards, improving mean time to repair (MTTR) and resulting in reduced downtime. Built-in static and maintenance bypass transfer UPS load to utility power during faults, overloads and maintenance, which also avoids costly system downtime. External Batteries Supply Reliable Backup with Expandable Runtime Options The S3M120KX uses external scalable battery cabinets, such as BP480V40, BP480V65 and BP480V100 (sold separately), to provide up to three hours of backup support in case of a power failure. Add the optional TEMPC100200 thermostat kit to enable temperature-compensated charging for optimized battery lifespan. The UPS system automatically restarts after a lengthy power outage. Intuitive Color Touchscreen Display Delivers Important Performance Information at a Glance The large (25.4 cm/10 inches) front-panel color interface enables comprehensive local monitoring and control capability. It displays critical operating conditions and diagnostic data, such as phase load levels, available runtime, alarm status, battery charge, and voltage and frequency values. Six LEDs indicate bypass, on-line, inverter, battery and alarm/fault modes. Network Management Card Offers Remote Monitoring and Control The optional WEBCARDLX (sold separately) with the latest version of PowerAlert Device Manager firmware (PADM20) provides enhanced remote management capabilities, including customizable dashboard graphs to fit user preferences. The PADM20 upgrade and Tripp Lite's PowerAlert Element Manager (PAEM) software form a powerful tool for expanding maintenance functions in large installations, including firmware update checks and backup and restoration of device configurations. Auto Probe allows a UPS with switched loads to automatically reboot devices if a network communication failure is detected. This preserves uptime and minimizes the time and expense associated with on-site support. Parallel Capability Provides Additional Capacity Connect two S3M120KX units in parallel using separate/shared battery cabinets for increased capacity and fault tolerance (N+1 redundancy). |

Technical specifications
How long it'll keep your equipment up.
Manufacturer-specified runtime at typical loads. Real-world figures depend on battery age, ambient temperature, and load profile.
Approximate - based on a single manufacturer anchor point. Estimates are roughest near very light or very heavy loads.
Estimate based on manufacturer-specified runtime curve. Real-world runtime varies with battery age, ambient temperature, and load profile.
Before you order
How do I know this UPS will run my equipment?
Add up the wattage draw of every device you'll plug in (servers, switches, monitors). The UPS's wattage rating — not VA — is the number that matters. Aim for the UPS to run at 60–70% of capacity at full load: this gives headroom for inrush current and a meaningful runtime margin. Email us your equipment list and we'll size the right UPS within one business hour.
What's covered by the warranty, and how long does it last?
New units carry the full manufacturer warranty registered to you on receipt. The manufacturer handles claims directly via their North American support channel. Refurbished units are covered by our own 1-year UPSPLUSBATTERY warranty handled in-house in Canada.
Can I extend runtime beyond what's shown above?
Many Smart-UPS-class models accept an external battery pack (XBP) connected to the rear battery port. If this UPS shows "Extended Runtime Capable: Yes" in the spec grid above, an XBP is supported. Compatible XBPs and the runtime gain they deliver vary by model — contact us if you don't see the right XBP in our catalogue.
