Short Description

The RCT 3000VAS is a 3000VA / 1800W line-interactive UPS with AVR, four 12V / 9Ah batteries, USB communication and comprehensive power protection for higher-demand office, networking and IT backup.

Why Choose This RCT

The RCT 3000VAS provides the highest power capacity in this VAS range.

Its 1800W rated output and four-battery configuration make it suitable for compatible higher-load and multi-device installations.

Boost and Buck AVR helps stabilise incoming mains voltage, while USB communication and RJ-45 surge protection provide additional functionality for office and IT environments.

Best For

• Higher-power desktop workstations
• Multi-monitor setups
• Wi-Fi and fibre equipment
• Routers and network switches
• CCTV systems
• Security installations
• Point-of-sale systems
• Business IT equipment
• Multiple compatible office devices
• Controlled equipment shutdown

Product Description

The RCT 3000VAS provides 3000VA / 1800W of rated line-interactive UPS capacity.

Its microprocessor-controlled design combines battery backup with Boost and Buck Automatic Voltage Regulation.

When mains electricity is interrupted, compatible connected equipment transfers to battery-backed operation.

The internal battery configuration consists of:

4 × 12V / 9Ah batteries

Battery-mode output uses a simulated sinewave with a typical transfer time of 2–6ms.

The batteries typically recharge to approximately 90% capacity in around 6 hours.

Additional functions include automatic restart when mains electricity recovers, off-mode charging and cold-start operation.
