Vertiv GXT5LI-6000GVRT3UXLN Liebert GXT5 6000VA Lithium-Ion Online Double-Conversion Rack UPS

Overview

The Vertiv GXT5LI-6000GVRT3UXLN is a 6000VA / 6000W lithium-ion online double-conversion UPS in a 3U rackmount form factor, hardwired for 200V–240V three-wire input. Purpose-built for server rooms, network closets, and distributed IT infrastructure where a unity power factor (6000VA = 6000W) matters and battery longevity under float conditions is a known operational cost. At 99 lbs installed, this is a high-density power protection platform — plan your rack weight budget accordingly before quoting the deployment.

Key Features

6000VA / 6000W Unity Power Factor: Most rack UPS units derate capacity — a 6000VA unit may only deliver 4800W at 0.8 PF. The GXT5LI-6000GVRT3UXLN is rated at a full 6000W, so you're not leaving 20% of the nameplate capacity on the table. Size your load against watts, not VA, and this unit won't surprise you at commissioning.

Lithium-Ion Battery Chemistry: Li-ion batteries typically outlast VRLA by 2–3x in service life and handle float conditions without the sulfation failures that sideline lead-acid units. For installations where battery replacement logistics are costly — remote edge sites, rooftop equipment rooms, hard-to-access telecom closets — that longevity translates directly to lower total cost of ownership over the asset's life.

Online Double-Conversion Topology: Load power passes through the inverter continuously, meaning there is zero transfer time to battery during an input power event. For servers running NVMe storage, hypervisors, or active transaction workloads, even a 4ms transfer on a line-interactive UPS can cause issues. Online topology eliminates that exposure entirely.

Hardwired Input (L1-L2/N-G): The GXT5LI-6000GVRT3UXLN connects directly to your facility's electrical distribution panel — no plug-and-socket chain adding resistance and potential failure points at 6kVA. This is the correct approach for permanent rack infrastructure deployments and simplifies NEC compliance in commercial occupancies.

User-Configurable Output Voltage (200–240VAC ±1%): Default output is 230VAC, but the range is configurable from 200–240VAC with ±1% regulation. That ±1% tightly controlled output protects sensitive loads from the browndown excursions common during generator transfer sequences in data centers.
