DC-to-DC Converter

The DC-to-DC converter utilizes energy from the battery system and raises

the DC voltage to the optimum operating voltage for the inverter. This allows

the inverter to operate continuously at its optimum efficiency and voltage,

thus increasing reliability.

Battery

The Liebert GXT2U utilizes valve-regulated, nonspillable lead acid batteries.

To maintain battery design life, operate the UPS in an ambient temperature

of 68°F to 77°F (20°C to 25°C). Optional external battery cabinets are

available to extend battery run times.

Dynamic Bypass

The Liebert GXT2U provides an alternate path for utility power to the

connected load in the unlikely event of a UPS malfunction. Should the UPS

have an overload, overtemperature, or UPS failure condition, the UPS

automatically transfers the connected load to bypass. Bypass operation is

indicated by an audible alarm and illuminated amber Bypass LED (other

LEDs may be illuminated to indicate the diagnosed problem). To manually

transfer the connected load from the inverter to bypass, press the Standby

button once.

NOTE
The bypass power path does NOT protect the connected equipment

from disturbances on the utility supply.
