Vertiv ITA2-40KRT400C 40KVA/KW 3-Phase Online UPS
Overview
The Vertiv ITA2-40KRT400C is a rack-mount, three-phase online double-conversion UPS rated at 40KVA/40KW with a unity power factor — meaning every rated kilovolt-ampere translates directly to a kilowatt of usable load capacity, no derating required. Designed for 400/230VAC three-phase environments (with 380V and 415V input tolerance as well), this unit targets medium-density data rooms, network closets, and equipment clusters where a single, high-capacity protective device is operationally simpler than stacking multiple single-phase units. The ITA2-40KRT400C ships with the Unity Card included, giving you network management capability out of the box without an additional accessory purchase.
The power protection category covers a wide range of UPS form factors, but the ITA2-40KRT400C occupies a well-defined slot: high efficiency, three-phase, rack-integrated, network-managed, and scalable across the 15/20/30/40KVA range within the same platform. If your facility already standardizes on the Vertiv power infrastructure lineup, the ITA2 platform integrates cleanly into existing monitoring and management workflows.
Key Features
- Unity Power Factor (40KVA = 40KW): A 1.0 power factor means you get the full 40KW of real power output — no 0.8 or 0.9 derating that would shrink your usable capacity to 32–36KW. Size your load to the nameplate, not a fraction of it.
- 93% Operating Efficiency: At 93% efficiency under normal online double-conversion mode, heat dissipation and energy waste are meaningfully lower than older-generation UPS designs that typically run 88–91%. On a 40KW system operating continuously, that 2–5 percentage point difference adds up in both cooling costs and annual energy spend.
- Three-Phase 400/230VAC Input and Output: The 4W+G (four-wire plus ground) wiring topology supports both 400V line-to-line and 230V line-to-neutral loads simultaneously, which is the standard European and international three-phase configuration. Input tolerance spans 380V to 415V, so it handles typical utility voltage fluctuations without switching to battery unnecessarily.
- Scalable Platform (15/20/30/40KVA): The ITA2 platform spans four capacity points on the same chassis and management architecture. If your load grows — or if you are standardizing a multi-site deployment — you are working within a consistent ecosystem rather than managing disparate hardware across sites.
- Unity Card Included — Network Management Ready: The included Unity Card provides network-accessible monitoring and management without an additional SNMP card purchase. For data center and IT environments where remote UPS visibility is a baseline requirement, having this pre-installed removes both the procurement step and the installation labor of adding it post-deployment.
- Rack-Mount Form Factor: The ITA2-40KRT400C integrates directly into standard equipment racks, keeping power protection co-located with the gear it protects. Rack integration also simplifies cable management compared to tower or standalone floor-mount alternatives.
- Online Double-Conversion Topology: Double-conversion means your connected loads always run on clean, inverter-generated power — incoming utility power is rectified and re-inverted continuously. There is zero transfer time to battery during an outage, which matters for equipment sensitive to voltage sags or brief interruptions.
Integration and Compatibility
The ITA2-40KRT400C is designed for three-phase network infrastructure environments operating on 380/400/415V international power standards. The Unity Card enables SNMP-based integration with building management systems, data center infrastructure management (DCIM) platforms, and network monitoring tools. For environments using Vertiv's Liebert management ecosystem, the ITA2 platform participates natively. The 4W+G wiring configuration aligns with IEC standard three-phase distribution panels commonly found in European, Middle Eastern, and international deployments, as well as purpose-built US data centers wired to international standards.
If you are building out a rackmount power protection strategy for a dense equipment environment, the ITA2 platform's capacity scalability means you can standardize procurement and spare parts across sites running different load profiles.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the actual KW output of the ITA2-40KRT400C?
A: Because the ITA2-40KRT400C has a unity (1.0) power factor, the KVA and KW ratings are identical: 40KVA = 40KW. There is no derating — you can load it to the full 40KW nameplate.
Q: What input voltages does the ITA2-40KRT400C support?
A: The unit supports three-phase input at 380V, 400V, and 415V, making it compatible with the standard international voltage range. Output is 380/400/415VAC three-phase with 230V line-to-neutral on a 4W+G wiring configuration.
Q: Does the ITA2-40KRT400C include network management capability?
A: Yes. The Unity Card is included with the ITA2-40KRT400C at purchase. This provides network-accessible SNMP monitoring and management without requiring a separately purchased card.
Q: Is the ITA2-40KRT400C available in other capacity ratings?
A: The ITA2 platform is available in 15, 20, 30, and 40KVA configurations. The ITA2-40KRT400C is the highest-capacity model in this rack-mount line.
Q: What wiring configuration does the ITA2-40KRT400C require?
A: The ITA2-40KRT400C uses a 4W+G (four-wire plus ground) three-phase configuration, which is the standard for 400/230VAC three-phase distribution in international and IEC-standard installations.
The ITA2-40KRT400C sits in a capacity tier where unity power factor actually moves the needle on procurement decisions. At 40KVA with a 1.0 PF, you are getting 40KW of usable real power — and at 93% efficiency in double-conversion mode, the thermal load on your cooling infrastructure is noticeably lower than what you would carry with an older 88–90% efficient unit at the same rated capacity. Those numbers matter when you are sizing CRAC units or calculating annual PUE targets for a medium-density data room.
Technical Highlights:
- Unity Power Factor: 40KVA = 40KW — no capacity derating, which simplifies load planning and eliminates the guesswork of partial-rated designs that deliver 32–36KW from a 40KVA nameplate.
- 93% Efficiency: Reduces waste heat and energy cost versus typical 88–91% designs; meaningful over the continuous runtime of a production data room environment.
- Included Unity Card: Network management is live at first power-on — no separate card procurement, no field installation step, no compatibility verification needed post-purchase.
Deployment Considerations:
- Verify your three-phase distribution panel matches one of the supported input voltages (380/400/415V) before installation — the 4W+G wiring requirement is non-negotiable for this topology, and field-wiring a four-wire panel where only three-wire exists is a project, not an afternoon task.
- The 130mm depth specification applies to one dimension of the chassis — confirm rack depth clearance and cable egress space before rack reservation, particularly in shallow-depth enclosures or rows with rear-mount PDUs.
The ITA2-40KRT400C is a direct fit for international three-phase data rooms and network equipment rooms running 400/230VAC distribution — specifically where load consolidation under a single 40KW-capable, network-managed UPS is preferable to managing multiple smaller single-phase units across the same rack row.
