| Q1. |
What is new and different about the HP 3 Phase Uninterruptible Power Systems, compared to the other HP UPSs? |
| A1. |
With only a 6U form factor, the R12000/3 provides more power protection per U (2 kilowatts) than any other UPS offered by HP. This allows you the most power back up, as well as leaving you with more rack space for your servers, storage and networking equipment. On-line On Demand technology provide maximum efficiency. |
| |
| Q2. |
What is On-line On Demand technology? |
| A2. |
HP 3 Phase Uninterruptible Power Systems operate in line interactive mode during general use to maximize efficiency and minimize heat output. If input voltage fluctuates outside of the established range, such as if a generator comes on line, the UPS switches to double conversion on-line more to provide the cleanest power possible. This hybrid technology provides 97% efficiency in standard mode, even with out put loads as low as 40% of maximum. |

| Q3. |
How many models of the HP 3 Phase Uninterruptible Power Systems are there? |
| A3. |
There are four UPS models. For a complete list please visit the QuickSpecs. |
| |
| Q4. |
What type of input connections do the HP 3 Phase Uninterruptible Power Systems have? |
| A4. |
The R8000/3 model has a single L21-30P on the North American model and an IEC309 16A 5 wire 4 pole plug on the International model.
The R12000/3 has a single IEC309 60A 5 wire 4 pole plug on the North American model and an IEC309 32A 5 wire 4 pole plug on the International model. |
| |
| Q5. |
What type of output connections does the HP 3 Phase Uninterruptible Power Systems have? |
| A5. |
The R8000/3 has one L15-30R on the North American model and an IEC309 16A 5 wire 4 pole connector on the International model.
The R12000/3 has two L15-30R on the North American model and two IEC309 16A 5 wire 4 pole connectors on the International model.

| |
| Q6. |
How many ERM's do the HP 3 Phase Uninterruptible Power Systems support? |
| A6. |
You may add up to 4 Extended Runtime Modules to each 3 phase UPS. Each ERM is only 3U in size. The ERM worldwide part number is AF434A . |
| |
| Q7. |
How do I manage the HP 3 Phase Uninterruptible Power Systems? |
| A7. |
HP provides free management software for all our UPSs. HP Power Manager software can be downloaded here. From this site, click on the software link at the bottom of the page.
You may also add the optional UPS Management Module which provides additional functionality such as out of band communications with up to 5 attached servers and UPS clustering for redundancy.

| |
| Q8. |
Which Power Distribution Units (PDUs) are compatible with the HP 3 phase UPS? |
| A8. |
HP recommends the HP Monitored PDUs, part number AF503A and AF504A for North America and AF507A and AF508A for international models. The HP 3 Phase Modular PDU (core only) can also be used. The 3 Phase Modular PDU part numbers are AF512A for North America and AF513A for international use. |
