The high-density, efficient, scalable, modular UPS
Symmetra PX 96/160 features, continued
Energy efficiency
Independently verified by TÜV, the Symmetra PX 
96/160 is 95% efficient to 35% loading, saving power 
and cooling costs and significantly reducing your 
overall total cost of ownership
Load (%)
Curve fit to measured efficiency data. All measurements taken in 
normal operating mode, at typical environmental conditions, with 
nominal electrical input and balanced resistive load (PF = 1.0) output

Scalability and modularity
 Scalable from 16 kW to 160 kW
•  Modular components simplify future expansion 
as your load grows
•  N+1 redundant up to 144 kW
•  Optional modular power distribution
•  Hot swappable power and battery modules
•  Hot-swappable breaker modules for UPS units  
with power distribution
•  All components conform to NetShelter SX 
form-factor (H x W x D: 78.7 x 23.6 x 42.1 in, 
1991 x 600 x 1070 mm)
•  One-time installation service  
Note: To expand the system from 96 kW to 
160 kW, the input power cabling must be sized 
for a Symmetra PX 160 kW at initial installation

   Network management card 
Provides UPS status and event notification. 
SmartSlot positions support dry contact, 
environmental monitor, building management 
system (Modbus
/Jbus), and additional 
network management cards
8
   Built-in static bypass switch 
The hot-swappable static bypass switch 
transfers the load to utility power without 
interruption in case of heavy overload or  
faulty conditions, and ensures that even in  
125% overload conditions, the data center  
remains operational

   High-density footprint 
Protect power and provide runtime in a mere 
1.28 square meters for the Symmetra PX 96 
kW or 1.92 square meters for the Symmetra 
PX 160 kW. Integrate modular power 
distribution and maintenance bypass without 
changing the footprint, freeing valuable data 
center space for IT equipment
10
   Modular power distribution (optional) 
Adapt the modular power distribution solution 
to meet changing demand—without a forced 
shutdown. Monitor breaker positions and 
simplify power management with output 
metering and branch current/circuit monitoring
