APC Easy UPS On-Line 2000VA, Ext. Runtime
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
APC Easy UPS On-Line 2000VA, Ext. Runtime (SRVPM2KIL) - 2 Years Local Warranty
Double-Conversion On-Line Protection for Singapore's 230 V / 50 Hz Mains
The APC SRVPM2KIL is a double-conversion on-line UPS: incoming mains is rectified to DC and rebuilt as a clean sine wave output, so the connected load never sees the supply it is actually plugged into. That matters on the Singapore grid, where the day-to-day problem is rarely a full blackout and much more often the voltage sag that arrives with an afternoon thunderstorm, or the disturbance from a large motor load elsewhere in the building. The unit rides those out on its inverter, holding a 160–280 V full-load input window before it needs the battery at all.
2000 VA of Protected Capacity, 1600 W of Real Power
Rated at 2000 VA / 1600 W, the SRVPM2KIL is sized for a comms cabinet, a pair of servers or a PoE switch stack. Size against the watts figure rather than the VA figure — servers, switches and storage are watts loads — and leave headroom rather than running it hard, which costs you both runtime and battery life. On-line efficiency is 88 % at full load, and output distortion is held to 3 %, which is what an active-PFC server power supply expects to see.
Extended Runtime: Power Module Plus SRV72BP-9A Battery Pack
This is the extended-runtime build. Schneider's own product name for the SRVPM2KIL ends in “Extended runtime, No Battery” — the power module holds no internal batteries and does not operate on its own. SourceIT supplies it as a complete working system with one SRV72BP-9A external battery pack (72 V DC), and up to 4 packs can be connected as your autonomy requirement grows. That is the practical difference from the standard SRV2KI tower, which has fixed internal batteries and accepts no expansion at all. Output is 4 × IEC 60320 C13 (all battery backup and surge protected).
Batteries, Service Life and Singapore's Heat
The SRV72BP-9A pack uses maintenance-free sealed VRLA blocks, and the system recharges in 5.5 hours. Heat is what actually kills UPS batteries, and a poorly ventilated cabinet in Singapore's climate will take years off them — the unit is rated for 0 °C to 40 °C and runs at 50 dBA, so give it airflow and it will give you the service life the specification implies. Battery condition is readable from the front-panel LCD and, with an APV9601 SNMP card fitted, over the network.

Compatibility & Runtime
What you can plug in
The SRVPM2KIL provides 4 × IEC 60320 C13 (all battery backup and surge protected). Every outlet is fed from the inverter, so all of them carry battery backup and surge protection — there is no surge-only bank on this model. Rated capacity is 2000 VA / 1600 W: size the load against the 1600 W figure, because a server, switch or storage array is a watts load, not a VA load.
Input and circuit requirements
Input connection is IEC 60320 C14 inlet. Singapore mains is 230 V / 50 Hz, which sits comfortably inside this unit's 160–280 V full-load input window, and the on-line inverter regenerates the output waveform continuously rather than switching to battery for every dip — useful during the voltage sags that accompany a thunderstorm on the PUB grid.
Footprint
This is a tower power module at 238 mm (H) × 145 mm (W) × 400 mm (D) and it is not rack-mountable, and the battery pack is a tower too. Schneider builds a rackmount extended-runtime equivalent under a separate part number in the SRVPM…KRIL series with rackmount battery packs — ask us if a rack build is what you need.
Batteries and runtime
This is an extended-runtime power module. Schneider's own product name for it ends in “Extended runtime, No Battery”, and the user manual confirms these units have no internal batteries — an external battery pack must be connected before the UPS will operate. This listing ships the power module together with one SRV72BP-9A pack (72 V DC). Up to 4 packs can be connected for longer autonomy.
Recharge time is 5.5 hours. Schneider publishes no runtime table for these extended-runtime bundles that we were able to verify against two independent sources, so no minutes-at-load figures are quoted here. Runtime depends on the connected load, the number of packs fitted and battery age. Tell us your actual load in watts and the autonomy you need and we will size the pack count for you — sales@sourceit.com.sg.
Management options
The SRVPM2KIL has a USB port, an RS-232 DB-9 serial port and one Intelligent Card Slot. Schneider's card for that slot is the APV9601 SNMP card. The Easy UPS On-Line SRV range uses a different card family from Smart-UPS: the AP9640 and AP9641 Network Management Card 3 units fit Smart-UPS SmartSlot equipment and will not work in this UPS.
For direct USB or serial shutdown of a single host, Schneider's FAQ FA315835 lists SRV models of 3 kVA and below as supported by PowerChute Serial Shutdown and PowerChute Business Edition. PowerChute itself is a Schneider download rather than a licence sold with the UPS — ask us if you want the current version confirmed for your operating system before you commission.

Datasheet & Downloads
Schneider Electric does not publish an English-language product page for the SRVPM2KIL part number in any region we could verify, so no direct link is given here rather than sending you to a page for a different model.
Official Schneider Electric product page for the SRV72BP-9A external battery pack supplied with this UPS — Singapore regional page.
Schneider serves its APC datasheet PDFs from a redirecting download host that regularly returns the wrong model's document, so we do not publish direct PDF links that we cannot verify resolve to the right part number. Email sales@sourceit.com.sg with the model you need and we will send the correct current-revision datasheet and user manual, along with a GST-invoiced quotation.
Every specification on this page was taken from Schneider Electric's own product page and its published product datasheet or user manual for this exact part number. Where Schneider's own sources disagreed, or published nothing, the field has been left out rather than estimated.
Frequently Asked Questions — APC SRVPM2KIL
What is the difference between the 2000 VA and 1600 W ratings, and how do I size it?
VA is apparent power, watts is real power. The SRVPM2KIL is rated 2000 VA / 1600 W, an output power factor of 0.8. Add up the watts of everything you intend to protect, keep the total under 1600 W, and leave headroom — loading a UPS to 100 % shortens both runtime and battery life. As a rough Singapore rule of thumb, a 1U rack server draws 200–400 W, a 24-port PoE switch 150–400 W depending on how much PoE is actually drawn, and a small NAS 60–120 W. Send us the list and we will size it.
How long will the SRVPM2KIL run my equipment?
Schneider does not publish a runtime-at-load table for this model that we could verify against two independent official sources, so we do not quote minutes here rather than invent them.
What matters in practice is that autonomy on this build is set by how many SRV72BP-9A packs you fit, not by anything inside the UPS — up to 4 can be connected. Email sales@sourceit.com.sg with your load in watts and the autonomy you want and we will work out the pack count.
Is the output a true sine wave, and will it work with an active-PFC power supply?
Yes. Schneider's datasheet for this exact model states a sine wave output with 3 % voltage distortion, and the topology is double conversion on-line — the load is fed from the inverter continuously rather than being switched over when mains fails. That is what an active-PFC server or workstation PSU wants; the step-approximated output of a low-cost standby UPS is what causes those supplies to trip. Schneider does not publish a numeric transfer time for this model and we do not claim one.
What does the “PM” in SRVPM2KIL mean, and does it come with batteries?
PM stands for power module. Schneider's product name for it ends in “Extended runtime, No Battery” and the user manual confirms these units contain no internal batteries at all — they will not operate until an external battery pack is connected. This SourceIT listing is a complete working system: the SRVPM2KIL power module supplied together with one SRV72BP-9A battery pack (72 V DC). Up to 4 packs can be connected. Schneider also markets the same combination under the bundle designation SRV2KIL.
Can I add more battery packs later?
Yes — up to 4 SRV72BP-9A packs can be connected to this power module. The batteries are the pack's, so autonomy scales with pack count rather than with anything inside the UPS. Schneider publishes no verified runtime matrix for these combinations, so rather than quote numbers we will size it against your measured load. Email sales@sourceit.com.sg.
Can the SRVPM2KIL be rack mounted?
No. This is a tower unit at 238 mm (H) × 145 mm (W) × 400 mm (D). Schneider builds the rackmount version as a separate part number — the SRVPM…KRIL rackmount extended-runtime series, which we can quote on request. The two are not convertible, and their outlet counts and dimensions differ, so pick the form factor at the point of order.
How do I monitor it over the network?
Fit the APV9601 SNMP card in the UPS Intelligent Card Slot. That is the Easy UPS On-Line card — the AP9640 and AP9641 Network Management Card 3 units fit Smart-UPS SmartSlot equipment and will not work here. Without a card you still get USB and RS-232 for a direct shutdown link to one host, with PowerChute Serial Shutdown or PowerChute Business Edition. Note that Schneider has discontinued the APV9601; ask us about current stock and the AP9544 successor before you commit to a monitoring design.
Is the SRVPM2KIL covered by warranty in Singapore?
Yes. Every APC SRVPM2KIL sold by SourceIT comes with local Singapore warranty and a GST invoice; APC backs the SRVPM2KIL with a 2-year manufacturer warranty. Schneider publishes a single worldwide figure of “2 years repair or replace” for the Easy UPS On-Line SRV range — there is no separate European and rest-of-world split on this family, so the term above is the one that applies in Singapore.
