APC Smart-UPS SRT Lithium-Ion 1500VA Rackmount 4U 230V Long Runtime
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
APC Smart-UPS SRT Lithium-Ion 1500VA/1350W Rackmount 4U 230V Long Runtime (SRTL1500RM4UXLI) - 5 Years Local Warranty
Smart-UPS On-Line Double Conversion with a 2.4 kWh Lithium-Ion Pack
The APC Smart-UPS SRT Lithium-Ion SRTL1500RM4UXLI is a double-conversion on-line Smart-UPS rated at 1500 VA / 1350 W, supplied as a long-runtime kit: the 2U SRT1500UXI-LI power module with its rail kit, plus one 2U XBP48RM2U-LI lithium-ion external battery pack (48 V, 50 Ah, 2.4 kWh), occupying 4U in total. The load is fed continuously from the inverter on a 230 V sine wave with less than 2% harmonic distortion, so the sags, brownouts and transients of a loaded Singapore riser are absorbed by the rectifier and never reach your servers, storage or network core.
The Smart-UPS On-Line SRT is Schneider's premium on-line platform: switched outlet groups, a SmartSlot for the full range of APC management cards, a 5 to 10 year lithium-ion battery life and a five-year warranty on both the UPS and the pack. It is the right choice for servers, storage, voice and data networks, medical laboratories and light industrial loads.
0.9 Power Factor and 1350 W of Real Power
The SRT is a 0.9 power factor build, delivering 1350 W from 1500 VA. Watts are what limit a UPS, so size on the total continuous watts of the connected load with headroom for start-up surge and growth. Output is provided on eight IEC C13 outlets, arranged as switched outlet groups so that less critical loads can be shed or rebooted independently from the network card. The input is an IEC 60320 C14 inlet with an operating window of 160–275 V at 40–70 Hz.
Why Lithium-Ion in a Singapore Rack
A lead-acid Smart-UPS in a warm comms room typically needs its cartridges replaced every three to five years. Schneider Electric prints a 5 to 10 year battery life for the XBP48RM2U-LI pack, describes it as minimising the need to replace the battery during the lifetime of the UPS, and gives the pack the same five-year warranty as the UPS.
Runtime and Additional Packs
Schneider Electric does not print runtime minutes on the product page for this kit, so we do not print them. Runtime depends on your load, and the 2.4 kWh pack behind a 1350 W UPS is designed for long hold-up rather than a few minutes of ride-through. Schneider's datasheet lists further XBP48RM2U-LI packs as runtime options for this model; send us your load in watts and the hold-up time you need and we will size the pack count from the manufacturer's runtime data.
4U Rackmount, Rack/Tower Convertible, Rails Included
The kit occupies 4U: the 2U SRT1500UXI-LI power module and the 2U XBP48RM2U-LI pack (85.5 x 432 x 521 mm, 27 kg). The rail kit for the power module is included, and the pack has its own rack brackets; the SRT is rack/tower convertible, so it can also stand beside a desk-side server. Both units are under 640 mm deep, so a standard 800 mm or 1000 mm server cabinet takes them comfortably.
SmartSlot, Switched Outlet Groups, EPO and PowerChute
The power module carries a multifunction LCD, USB and serial ports, an Emergency Power Off connector and one free SmartSlot, which takes an APC Network Management Card 3 such as AP9640 or AP9641 for SNMP monitoring, alerting and remote outlet-group control over the network. PowerChute Serial Shutdown is Schneider's documented software for graceful unattended shutdown over the USB or serial cable. If you want the network card fitted from the factory, ask us about the -NC version of this kit, which ships with the Network Management Card 3 with environmental monitoring pre-installed.
Supplied Locally, with GST Invoice and Singapore Warranty
SourceIT supplies the SRTL1500RM4UXLI as an APC by Schneider Electric product with a full GST invoice and local Singapore warranty support. Schneider Electric's printed term for the Smart-UPS SRT Lithium-Ion is five years repair or replace on the UPS, and five years repair or replace on the XBP48RM2U-LI battery pack.

Compatibility & Runtime
Outlets and What Can Be Plugged In
The SRTL1500RM4UXLI provides 8 x IEC C13 on the output, arranged as switched outlet groups that can be controlled independently from a network card — useful for rebooting a hung switch remotely or shedding non-critical load to extend runtime. Standard IEC leads plug straight in; locking C13 to C14 lead kits such as the AP8704S-WW keep a rack tidy. The input is an IEC 60320 C14 inlet. Size on watts: this is a 0.9 power factor build rated at 1350 W.
Rack Fit
The kit occupies 4U at 171 x 432 x 639 mm assembled, so it fits any standard 800 mm or 1000 mm server cabinet, and the SRT is rack/tower convertible.
Battery and Runtime
The XBP48RM2U-LI is a 48 V, 50 Ah, 2.4 kWh lithium-ion pack with its own battery management system and overvoltage and overtemperature protection, and a 5 to 10 year battery life as printed by Schneider Electric. Runtime minutes are not printed on the product page for this kit, so we do not print them; Schneider's datasheet lists further XBP48RM2U-LI packs as runtime options. Send us your load and hold-up time and we will size the pack count from the manufacturer's runtime data.
Input Lead
The datasheet lists one 1.83 m input lead without printing the plug type. A Schuko (CEE 7/7) plug does not fit a Singapore BS 1363 socket; a BS 1363 to IEC lead or an IEC-fed rack PDU is the normal solution. Confirm with us at order time.
Management and Software
The SmartSlot takes an APC Network Management Card 3 such as AP9640 or AP9641; the AP9613 dry-contact card is the option for a building management system. PowerChute Serial Shutdown handles graceful unattended shutdown over USB or serial, and an EPO connector is fitted.

The Lead-Acid Smart-UPS SRT Models
The same ratings with internal VRLA batteries are the lower-cost choice where a three to five year battery cycle is acceptable and long runtime is not required: SRT1000RMXLI, SRT1500RMXLI, SRT2200RMXLI and SRT3000RMXLI.

Frequently Asked Questions — APC SRTL1500RM4UXLI
What is in the kit, and how much rack space does it take?
The SRT1500UXI-LI 2U power module with its rail kit, and one XBP48RM2U-LI 2U lithium-ion battery pack (48 V, 2.4 kWh) — 4U in total, 171 x 432 x 639 mm assembled.
How do I size this UPS?
Size on watts. The SRT is a 0.9 power factor build, so this model gives 1350 W from 1500 VA. Total up the continuous watts of everything you want to protect, allow headroom for start-up surge and growth, and compare that to 1350 W.
What runtime will I get?
Schneider Electric does not print runtime minutes on the product page for this kit, so we do not print a figure. Email sales@sourceit.com.sg with your load in watts and the hold-up time you need and we will size it against the manufacturer's runtime data, including additional packs if required.
How long does the lithium-ion battery last, and is it user replaceable?
Schneider Electric prints a 5 to 10 year battery life for the XBP48RM2U-LI and lists the battery as user replaceable. The pack is an external 2U unit connected by cable, so a change is a rack job rather than a cartridge swap. Schneider Electric does not describe changing the pack with the load running, so plan a short maintenance window.
Which network card does it take, and is one included?
The SmartSlot is free on this kit and takes an APC Network Management Card 3 such as AP9640 or AP9641. If you want the card factory-fitted, ask us about the -NC version of this kit, which ships with the Network Management Card 3 with environmental monitoring pre-installed.
Which plug is on the power lead?
Schneider's datasheet lists one 1.83 m input lead without printing the plug type. If it is a Schuko (CEE 7/7) lead it will not fit a Singapore BS 1363 socket; a BS 1363 to IEC lead or an IEC-fed rack PDU is the usual answer. Confirm with us when you order.
What are switched outlet groups for?
With a network card fitted you can reboot a hung device remotely, sequence start-up, or shed non-critical load during an outage to give the critical group more runtime.
How does this compare with the lead-acid Smart-UPS SRT of the same rating?
The lead-acid SRT1500RMXLI is a 2U unit with internal VRLA batteries, cheaper to buy and adequate where a short runtime and a three to five year battery cycle are acceptable. This lithium-ion kit adds the 2.4 kWh external pack for long runtime, a 5 to 10 year battery life and a five-year warranty on the battery pack as well as the UPS.
Does it come with a Singapore warranty and a GST invoice?
Yes. Every APC SRTL1500RM4UXLI sold by SourceIT comes with local Singapore warranty and a GST invoice; APC by Schneider Electric backs the SRTL1500RM4UXLI with a five-year manufacturer warranty on the UPS and five years on the lithium-ion battery pack.
