• Broad compatibility with Liebert GXT5 models. This 36V 9Ah battery kit is designed to work with Liebert GXT5-500LVRT2UXL, GXT5-750LVRT2UXL, and GXT5-1000LVRT2UXL UPS configurations. The standardized 36V pack fits neatly into the unit’s internal battery bay, enabling a straightforward field upgrade without specialized tools or major system downtime. With this battery kit, you can refresh aging batteries across multiple units in a single maintenance cycle, helping ensure consistent performance across your entire fleet.
• Hot-swappable, internal lead-acid design for minimal downtime. Replace the battery while your UPS continues to protect critical loads in many deployments, reducing the impact of routine maintenance. The hot-swappable architecture simplifies service events, allowing trained personnel to swap a depleted pack for a fresh unit without removing the entire UPS from service. This approach translates to shorter maintenance windows, improved uptime, and predictable recovery during outages.
• 36V, 9Ah capacity for dependable runtime and graceful shutdowns. The 36V 9Ah configuration provides up to approximately 324 watt-hours of stored energy (36V x 9Ah), supporting server depth-of-discharge limits and enabling orderly shutdowns during power interruptions. This capacity is optimized for Liebert GXT5 power protection, ensuring your critical devices receive sustained backup power until mains return or a controlled shutdown is achieved.
• Safe, spill-proof design with maintenance-friendly lead-acid chemistry. The internal lead-acid chemistry is sealed and designed to minimize leakage risk, fumes, and corrosion—an important consideration for data centers and equipment rooms with strict environmental controls. The spill-proof construction offers added confidence during replacement and service, helping protect both personnel and adjacent components in busy IT environments.
• Three-year factory warranty and reliable Vertiv support. Confidence comes standard with a three-year factory warranty, backed by Vertiv’s global support network. This warranty reflects build quality and long-term reliability, ensuring access to tech support, replacement parts, and service resources should you encounter issues. With this investment, you gain predictable maintenance costs and a clear path to sustained uptime for your Liebert GXT5 ecosystem.

How to install Liebert GXT5 36V UPS Replacement Battery Kit

• Prepare for installation: Schedule a maintenance window if required and follow your organization’s safety procedures. If your Liebert GXT5 supports online maintenance, review the manufacturer’s guidelines before proceeding. Confirm the exact model and ensure you have the correct 36V 9Ah kit for your GXT5 unit.
• Power down and access the battery bay: Power down the loads according to your data center policy and disconnect the UPS from the mains if required by your maintenance protocol. Open the UPS battery access panel to reveal the internal battery modules. Keep track of any connectors and securing hardware for reassembly.
• Disconnect the existing battery pack: Carefully detach the battery connectors, noting polarity and connector type. If labels or color-coding exist, use them to guide the removal. Place the old battery in a safe, non-conductive container for disposal in accordance with local regulations.
• Install the new 36V 9Ah kit: Align the new battery module with the battery bay and seat it securely. Reconnect power cables and fasten any clips or screws as required by the unit’s design. Ensure all connections are tight and that no wires are pinched or routed over sharp edges.
• Verify operation and complete the cycle: Replace the battery access panel, reconnect power, and perform a brief self-test or diagnostic cycle as specified by the Liebert GXT5 manual. Confirm that the UPS recognizes the new battery, that there are no fault indicators, and that runtime estimates align with expectations. Monitor for a healthy recharge during initial operation.
