1500VA line-interactive UPS

The Tripp Lite SMART1500LCD is a 120V line-interactive UPS rated at 1500 VA and 900 W. It provides battery backup and automatic voltage regulation for desktop computers, network workstations and audio-video equipment. Eight NEMA 5-15R outlets deliver surge-protected and battery-backed power. A front-panel LCD reports voltage, runtime, load and battery status.

Desktop and small-network protection

This unit suits users who need to keep a PC, monitor and networking gear running through brief outages and brownouts. The 4.4-minute full-load and 11.8-minute half-load runtimes allow time for safe shutdown. Buyers who need longer backup times for servers or multiple workstations should look at higher-capacity units. Environments requiring a different input voltage need a different model.

4.4-minute runtime at 900 W load

At the full 900 W rating the battery lasts 4.4 minutes; at 450 W it lasts 11.8 minutes. This single figure decides whether the UPS gives enough time for your shutdown script or whether you need a larger battery pack. Recharge from 10 % to 90 % takes less than 4.5 hours.

Questions about this item

When will the RBC1500 battery cartridge need to be replaced?

The RBC1500 cartridge is user-replaceable; typical VRLA service life is 3–5 years depending on temperature and discharge cycles.

What runtime limit appears first when the UPS runs at full 900 W load?

At 900 W the battery provides 4.4 minutes of backup before shutdown is required.

How much heat and fan noise should I expect during all-day operation?

The line-interactive design only runs the inverter on battery; in normal AC mode it passes power through AVR with minimal heat and no continuous fan noise.
