Lithium Battery UPS | 3000VA/3000W | 48VDC | 1-30A Charging | BMS
Prostar PET1103+Li is a 3kVA lithium UPS for professional PC systems, workstations, network devices, edge computing equipment, and small IT infrastructures that require stable and uninterrupted power protection. This 3kVA lithium UPS uses 48V LiFePO4 lithium battery technology and online double conversion topology. It outputs pure sine wave, transfers at 0 ms, achieves 95% efficiency in double-conversion mode and 98% in ECO mode, and supports 6,000+ cycles at 80% DoD versus 300–500 cycles for lead-acid systems. This lithium battery UPS suits users who need long runtime, lower maintenance, and intelligent power management.
Modern high-performance PCs, multi-GPU AI development workstations, and rack servers use Switch-Mode Power Supplies (SMPS) with Active Power Factor Correction (PFC). Line-interactive UPS units and lead-acid backups fail in these environments due to three systemic vulnerabilities:
Line-interactive UPS units introduce a 4ms to 20ms transfer lag during power dips or blackouts. Active PFC PC power supplies trigger an instantaneous low-voltage shutdown within 4ms–8ms. This causes unrecorded data loss, corruption of machine-learning models, or hardware strain.
Valve-Regulated Lead-Acid (VRLA) batteries have 300 to 500 cycles or 2–3 years of service life. In high-density PC environments with ambient thermal load, VRLA cells undergo thermal runaway and capacity degradation. This requires replacements every 2–3 years.
Commercial electrical grids produce micro-sags, transient surges, frequency drifts, and total harmonic distortion (THD). Unconditioned power erodes semiconductor components inside GPUs and CPUs over time and reduces system longevity.

The PET1103+Li 3kVA lithium UPS addresses power anomalies through online double-conversion engineering paired with a 48V lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) energy storage matrix.
The system converts AC power to DC and back to AC. This decouples connected PCs from grid fluctuations and delivers a continuous pure sine wave output with 0 ms transfer time.
For professional users, a 3kVA lithium UPS with online double conversion provides higher protection by converting incoming AC power into DC and reconstructing a clean AC output continuously.
The PET1103+Li solves these challenges by combining:
| Feature / Metric | Legacy 3kVA VRLA UPS | PET1103+Li 3kVA Lithium UPS | User Operational Impact |
| Battery Lifespan | 2–3 Years | 10+ Years | 3x to 4x longer operational life; eliminates frequent battery swaps |
| Cycle Life (80% DoD) | 300 – 500 Cycles | 6,000+ Cycles | Resilient against daily cycling and frequent micro-outages |
| Transfer Time | 4ms – 10ms (Line-Interactive) | 0 ms (Online Double Conversion) | Guarantees zero crash/reboot on sensitive Active PFC PC power supplies |
| Weight & Footprint | ~15 kg – 25kg (Heavy) | ~6.8 kg – 18 kg (Ultra-Light) | 60% weight reduction; ideal for rack enclosures and desk setups |
| Recharge Time (to 90%) | 8 – 12 Hours | 1.5 – 2.5 Hours | Rapid recovery between back-to-back grid disruptions |
| Operating Temp Range | 20°C to 25°C (Strict) | 0°C to 40°C (Wide) | High resilience to ambient heat in server rooms or workstation bays |
Unlike UPS systems using VRLA batteries, this lithium UPS system uses LiFePO4 battery technology. It offers 6,000+ cycles at 80% DoD, charges to 90% in 1.5–2.5 hours, operates from 0°C to 40°C, and requires fewer replacements.
The UPS provides 3000VA/3000W capacity, making it suitable for:
The PET1103+Li functions as a continuous power filter. It rectifies utility AC power to 48V DC to charge the lithium array. A precision inverter generates an AC sine wave with THD < 2% for linear loads. During grid sags or blackouts, the output waveform remains unchanged.
The integrated 48V lithium battery architecture improves reliability and battery performance.
This makes it a reliable 48V lithium UPS for PC and network equipment.
The PET1103+Li achieves 95% efficiency in double-conversion mode and over 98% in ECO mode. It minimizes heat dissipation and active cooling overhead and lowers energy consumption in continuous operating environments.
The built-in intelligent charging system supports:
This helps reduce charging time after power recovery and improves overall battery utilization.
An integrated industrial BMS monitors cell-level voltages, currents, state-of-charge (SoC), state-of-health (SoH), and temperatures in real time. The BMS balances cells during charge cycles and prevents overcharge, over-discharge, short circuits, and thermal stress.
PET1103+Li supports generator input, making it suitable for areas with unstable grids.
Applications include:
The UPS inverter and BMS exchange data via RS485. Protocols include Pylontech (RS485 and CANbus). The system reports per‑cell voltage, per‑cell temperature, SoC, and alarm flags every 1 second.
The UPS features an advanced LCD interface providing real-time information:
Users can easily monitor UPS operation without additional software.
