Vertiv (NYSE: VRT), a global provider of critical digital infrastructure and continuity solutions, today introduced 1kVA to 3kVA capacities of the Vertiv™ Liebert® GXE, an online double conversion, single-phase uninterruptible power supply (UPS) for 230V applications designed to support critical applications deployed at the network edge.​ With the addition of the new models, the Liebert® GXE family is now available in a complete 1kVA to 10kVA capacities range and is ready for immediate shipping from stock within Asia, including Australia and New Zealand.

The Liebert® GXE 1-3KVA UPS is available in a compact tower-only model or in a flexible rack/tower convertible design and delivers high efficiencies of up to 91% in online mode and up to 96% in ECO mode. It features a battery management system that supports prolonged battery lifespan and minimizes the need for replacements. Additionally, its output power factor of 0.9 allows for more active loads to be connected within a given space, while its online double conversion technology protects equipment from power disturbances.

The Liebert GXE rack/tower models provide scalable runtime for applications that need extended backup during AC mains outages, achievable by adding up to four external battery cabinets, and a fast recharge time thanks to its powerful 6 Amp internal charger. The hot-swappable VRLA batteries are user-replaceable without needing skilled personnel or powering down the loads, ensuring smooth operation and reduced maintenance costs.

The Liebert GXE features an intuitive LCD display that offers insights into the UPS status, facilitating effortless installation and operation. This unit provides remote monitoring capabilities, enabling convenient access to IT infrastructure via the optional Vertiv™ Liebert® Intellislot™ Unity Communications card, along with a complimentary download of the Vertiv™ Power Insight software.  Finally, Vertiv offers a wide service offering including limited warranty extensions, Power Emergency packages, and other options, depending on the country and UPS model

“The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence has increased the demand for data centers to meet the workload requirements of AI-powered applications, with some transitioning to the network’s edge. This demand for AI is one of the primary drivers for the surge in electricity consumption. The heightened energy use raises the risk of power disruptions, potentially causing costly downtime and outages for operators,” stated Ramesh Menon, vice president, IT systems solutions at Vertiv. “The Liebert GXE provides energy-efficient and affordable secure power protection, helping small and medium businesses sustain reliable operations in these distributed applications.”

“As technology evolves, IT teams are looking for ways to simplify the management of their critical infrastructure from core to the edge of the network. The Liebert GXE helps accomplish this goal with its standardized design, while providing flexibility and ease of deployment. We are excited to launch this value-conscious UPS across Asia, helping our partners and customers simplify their IT deployment without sacrificing efficiency and availability,” said Arunangshu Chattopadhyay, director, AC power and power distribution at Vertiv Asia.

The UPS is available with a comprehensive range of limited warranty extensions and service programs designed for single-phase UPS systems.
