Vertiv / Liebert · APM2Vertiv / Liebert APM2 Three-Phase UPS

Overview

The Vertiv / Liebert APM2 is a three-phase UPS series for critical loads, data centres, healthcare, industrial and infrastructure. We specify the right configuration from the APM2 line, supply it, and install it turnkey across Canada. We carry every major brand, so we can compare the APM2 against the alternatives on price, footprint and lead time.

How a three phase double conversion UPS carries the load, and where the bypass sits.

Specifications

Silicon-carbide efficiency & density

The Liebert APM2 is an online modular three-phase UPS (208/220 V and 480/415 V) built on three-level IGBT and hybrid silicon-carbide converters for 97.5% peak double-conversion efficiency, up to 98.8% in Dynamic Online and up to 99% in ECO mode. Output is unity power factor (kW = kVA). A single unit scales to 600 kW, up to 24 MW in parallel, with N+1 hot-swappable power modules and an MTTR under half an hour. The 10 to 120 kVA frame packs power, maintenance bypass and battery into a 600 mm width, Vertiv claims up to ~55% footprint saving, with internal VRLA or lithium-ion batteries, 65 kA short-circuit withstand, and OSHPD seismic pre-approval.

Sizing, redundancy and custom builds

We engineer the solution: load and growth analysis, redundancy (N, N+1, 2N), runtime and battery sizing, paralleling and switchgear, and custom configurations where the standard catalogue doesn't fit. Because we supply every major brand, the APM2 is one option we weigh on its merits, not the only answer.

Supply, install and lifecycle

We deliver, install and commission the system on site (coordinated with your electrical contractor), then keep it running with preventive maintenance, battery replacement and emergency support, including APM2 units that are out of warranty or discontinued by the manufacturer.

Common questions

Can you replace an old or discontinued unit with a different brand?

Yes, that's most of what we do. Send the model and part number you have (any brand, even end-of-life) and we cross-reference an equivalent that matches the load and footprint. If the original is back-ordered, we propose an in-stock unit that ships sooner.

Do you replace just the batteries, or the whole UPS?

Whichever is the better value. A battery replacement (sometimes with an added cabinet for more runtime) often restores full protection at a fraction of a new system. We need your exact model and variant to quote it accurately.

What are the lead times?

It depends on the model and stock. When the original has a long lead time, we usually propose an equivalent we can ship sooner so the load isn't left exposed. Tell us your timeline in the quote.

Do you install it, and across Canada?

Yes, we supply, install and commission the system anywhere in Canada, coordinated with your electrician, and maintain it afterward: preventive maintenance, batteries, emergency support and remote monitoring, on a single unit or a multi-site fleet.

Can you quote a complete system, not just the UPS?

Yes, UPS, power distribution, racks, batteries and the installation in one quote, coordinated with your electrical contractor.
