Reliable 1500VA Tower UPS for critical equipment

The APC Smart-UPS SMT1500 is a 1500VA, 1000W tower UPS designed to supply clean network-grade power to servers, networking gear and workstations. It accepts 100 to 120V input at 50 or 60Hz through a NEMA 5-15P plug and provides eight NEMA 5-15 outlets for connected devices.

31 to 60 minute runtime

On battery power the unit delivers between 31 and 60 minutes of runtime depending on load. The lead-acid battery recharges in under three hours and is user-replaceable without tools. Audible alarms alert you to utility loss, low battery or overload conditions while the RS-232 serial port enables management software integration.

Tower form factor with six-foot cord for flexible

The tower chassis sits on a desk, shelf or floor and includes a six-foot input cord for reach. Eight rear outlets support multiple devices without external power strips. No rack rails are included, so the unit remains a freestanding tower. The RS-232 interface requires a compatible serial cable or USB adapter for host connectivity.

Questions about this item

How do I connect the SMT1500 to a wall outlet and what step is often missed?

Plug the attached 6 ft. cord into a 120V NEMA 5-15R receptacle and press the front-panel power button; the step often missed is turning the UPS on after plugging it in.

When will the internal battery need replacement and how is it done?

The lead-acid battery is user-replaceable; expect to swap it every three to five years by opening the front door and sliding the new cartridge in.

How long will the UPS run my 1000W load before the battery hits its limit?

At the full 1000W rating the unit provides approximately 31 minutes of runtime before the battery reaches its low-voltage cutoff.
