191600XPi Series UPS Installation and Operation Manual – 60616-014
9.5 Battery Backup Time and Discharge Process
The UPS internal batteries provide approximately 5-7 minutes of back-up time depending on the 1600XPi unit kVA rating.
These times are valid when the unit is operating under full load and at the rated power factor. The exact length of these times
will depend on the UPS model used, condition of the batteries, amount and type of load, temperature and other variables.
See battery backup time in “Appendix A: 1600XPi Specications” on page A1.
The following illustration graphically shows the battery discharge process at full load conditions.

9.6 Battery Low Voltage Tolerances
Excessive discharge will cause the UPS battery voltage to drop. The chart shown below lists the voltage level at which each
UPS low-voltage alarm will sound and at what level the low-voltage condition will cause the unit to automatically shut down.
