Overview
- The PowerShield Centurion RT 1000VA/900W is a true online double-conversion UPS engineered for businesses requiring robust, continuous power protection. Unlike conventional UPS systems, the Centurion RT constantly converts incoming mains power through its inverter, ensuring zero transfer time to battery power during mains failure. This architecture guarantees protection of sensitive equipment against voltage fluctuations, surges, and complete power loss.
With a 0.9 output power factor, the Centurion RT delivers more usable power than comparable VA-rated units, making it ideal for supporting larger loads and more demanding equipment. The advanced ECO mode intelligently switches to bypass mode when mains voltage is stable, achieving up to 98% efficiency and reducing operating costs without compromising protection.
The unit's flexible rack or tower configuration adapts to any installation environment, while hot-swappable batteries simplify maintenance and extend service life. Programmable power management outlets, generator compatibility, and Emergency Power Off (EPO) functionality provide comprehensive power management capabilities suitable for medium-density installations.

FAQs
What is the difference between the Centurion RT and a standard UPS?
The Centurion RT is a true online double-conversion UPS, meaning it continuously converts mains power through its inverter with zero transfer time to battery. Standard UPS units switch to battery only during power loss, resulting in a brief transfer delay. The Centurion RT provides superior protection for sensitive equipment.
What does the 0.9 power factor mean?
A 0.9 power factor means the Centurion RT can deliver more usable power (900W) than UPS units with lower power factors at the same VA rating. This allows you to support larger loads and more demanding equipment without upgrading to a higher VA model.
How does ECO mode work?
ECO mode monitors incoming mains voltage and automatically switches the UPS to bypass mode when voltage is within acceptable range. In bypass mode, power passes directly through to connected devices while the inverter operates passively, reducing energy consumption to just 2% and achieving up to 98% efficiency. Full online protection resumes immediately if mains voltage becomes unstable.
Can the Centurion RT be used with a generator?
Yes, the Centurion RT is generator compatible, allowing you to extend backup power time by connecting it to a backup generator during extended outages.
What are the output connectors?
The unit provides 3 Australian outlets (10A total) and 5 x IEC C13 connectors, totalling 8 outlets for flexible equipment connectivity.
Are batteries hot-swappable?
Yes, the Centurion RT features hot-swappable batteries, allowing you to replace batteries without shutting down connected equipment or interrupting power protection.
What is the Emergency Power Off (EPO) function?
EPO is a safety feature that allows immediate shutdown of the UPS and connected equipment via a push button or remote contact. This is useful in emergency situations or for safe equipment shutdown during facility events.
What warranty is included?
The Centurion RT 1000VA/900W includes a 2-year manufacturer warranty covering all components and labour.
