Vertiv VEBCLI-48VRT1U Lithium-ion External Battery Cabinet
Overview
The Vertiv VEBCLI-48VRT1U is a 1U rack or tower-mountable lithium-ion external battery cabinet designed to augment the runtime of compatible Vertiv Liebert GXT5 Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) systems. This unit provides critical extended backup power for sensitive IT equipment, ensuring operational continuity during short-term power outages or brownouts. Its compact 1U form factor is ideal for dense server rack environments where space is at a premium.
Compatibility
This battery cabinet is specifically engineered for the Vertiv Liebert GXT5 UPS family. It supports models up to 3kVA when using specific mounting kits such as 2POSTRMKIT, 2UTELECOMRKIT, WMBKT2U, and WMBKT2USS. For broader compatibility across the entire Liebert GXT5 UPS range (500VA to 10kVA), the RS500, RS600, RS700, RS800, and RMKIT18-32 accessory kits are required. Ensure you select the correct UPS model and any necessary rack mounting kits for seamless integration.
Installation Notes
The VEBCLI-48VRT1U is designed for straightforward integration into standard 19-inch racks or tower configurations. It requires a compatible Liebert GXT5 UPS and potentially specific rack mounting kits, as detailed in the compatibility section. Proper ventilation should be maintained around the unit and the connected UPS to prevent overheating. Consult the UPS documentation for specific wiring and connection procedures.
