  • 5000VA/4500W rating supports high-density server and network equipment
  • Wide 200–250V input window with AVR corrects voltage without battery use
  • Hardwire or L6-30P input with 10 ft cord fits existing 30A electrical service
  • 3U rack/tower form factor deploys in standard cabinets or floor-standing installations

5000 VA double-conversion UPS

The Tripp Lite SU5000RT is a 5000 VA, 4500 W double-conversion UPS built for 3U rack or tower installation. It accepts single-phase input from 200 V to 250 V AC with a factory default of 208 V and a rated maximum input current of 23.3 A. The unit ships with a 10 ft hardwire or L6-30P input cord and requires a 30 A upstream breaker. It provides output through two L6-20R and two L6-30R receptacles.

Online topology for continuous conditioning

Because the inverter runs continuously, the output voltage stays regulated without transferring to battery during sags, surges or frequency drift. This topology isolates connected equipment from raw mains disturbances at all times, making it suitable for servers, network gear and sensitive electronics that cannot tolerate a switchover delay. The internal batteries deliver approximately three minutes of run-time at full load, enough for orderly shutdown scripts to complete.

Efficient operation with managed heat

Double-conversion efficiency reduces waste heat compared with legacy designs, so the unit runs cooler inside a crowded rack. Fan speed scales with load and temperature, keeping acoustic output low during typical partial-load operation. The 30 A service recommendation matches the hardwire or L6-30P input, ensuring the supply wiring and breaker stay within thermal limits without oversizing.

Questions about this item

How loud and hot does the SU5000RT get when it runs at full load all day?

The unit draws up to 23.3 A at 208 V input and is rated for 4500 W output; fan speed and heat rise will scale with that load, so expect noticeable airflow and warmth in a closed rack.

What electrical service and wiring must already be in place before the SU5000RT can be installed?

A 30 A single-phase circuit with either a hard-wire feed or an L6-30P receptacle is required, and the supplied input cord is 10 ft long.

Will the SU5000RT protect older 200 V or 240 V equipment connected to its L6-20R and L6-30R outlets?

Yes — the UPS accepts 200 V, 208 V, 220 V, 230 V, 240 V and 250 V nominal inputs and delivers 230 V or 240 V output, so legacy gear within that range is supported.
