The TX91 is an isolation-based online double-conversion tower UPS (3.8 to 10 kVA) engineered for laboratory instrumentation, analytical systems, and precision electronics — environments where electrical noise, grounding instability, and waveform distortion directly affect measurement accuracy and reliability. An optional integrated galvanic isolation transformer electrically separates the utility input from the load, eliminating common-mode noise that transformerless designs leave exposed. True sine wave output, ±1% regulation, ANSI/IEEE C62.41 surge protection, dual output voltages, a 3-year warranty, and TAA compliance.

The TX91 is the power-quality-first UPS platform for environments where electrical noise and grounding conditions directly impact system performance. It is built for applications where standard, IT-focused UPS platforms do not provide sufficient electrical isolation — analytical laboratories, measurement and control systems, and sensitive electronic instrumentation. Beyond conventional online protection, the TX91 conditions power at the source through galvanic isolation, improving waveform integrity and stabilizing operating conditions for sensitive loads.
Unlike transformerless UPS platforms, the TX91 incorporates an optional integrated galvanic isolation transformer that electrically separates the utility input from connected loads — and provides power conditioning during both normal and bypass operation. This architecture mitigates the disturbances that degrade precision measurement:
| Disturbance | How isolation addresses it |
|---|---|
| Common-mode electrical noise | Galvanic separation breaks the common-mode path between source and load |
| Harmonic propagation | Isolation limits harmonic coupling from shared loads on the same supply |
| Ground reference instability | A stabilized ground reference supports sensitive instrumentation |
| Voltage transient propagation | Transients are attenuated rather than passed through to the load |
The result is improved waveform integrity, a stable ground reference, and repeatable operating conditions — without the expensive dedicated circuits a non-isolated approach would require.
Eliminates common-mode noise left exposed by transformerless online designs, removes the need for expensive dedicated circuits, and provides power conditioning during both normal and bypass operation.
High-quality true sine wave output with tight ±1% voltage regulation for precision electronics — with dual output voltages (240/120V, or 230/115V) and an optional configurable PDU for a wide range of receptacle requirements.
Surge withstand to Category A & B (6kV / 200 & 500A, 100kHz ringwave) with very low let-through — under 10V normal mode (L-N) and under 0.5V common mode (N-G) at 6kV Cat A.
A manual maintenance bypass transfers the load to utility power for service, and a static switch automatically transfers output to the isolated bypass source on overload or fault.
Optional 580W internal batteries (XR models) and external BP960 battery cabinets extend runtime — from ride-through and controlled shutdown to longer backup for generator transfer events.
Isolated online operation protects against all ten common power problems, with auto restart, LCD monitoring of vital parameters, and compatibility with generator-backed infrastructure.
The TX91 sits where power quality and electrical isolation are primary design requirements, rather than IT-grade load protection alone. For isolated online voltage regulation without internal batteries, the TXVR is the companion platform.

Standard online UPS systems are designed primarily for IT load protection and do not address electrical noise or grounding instability to the same degree. Transformerless platforms prioritize efficiency and compact size but provide no electrical isolation between input and output. The TX91 adds galvanic isolation that improves power quality at the source — suited to environments where measurement accuracy is affected by electrical noise, ground-reference variation impacts performance, or instrumentation sensitivity exceeds IT-grade requirements.

All models are tower form factor, 9.9 × 23.3 × 32.4 in, with unity output power factor, ±1% regulation, and a 273 VDC charger (1–4 A selectable). Input and output land on terminal blocks or an optional configurable PDU. Runtime extends via XR internal batteries and external BP960 battery cabinets. (6 kVA system capacity is reduced by a 30 A input circuit; the PDU L6-30P input option is 6 kVA only.)

Runtimes are shown in minutes and vary with battery condition, age, cycles, and ambient temperature. The TX91 is designed primarily for power-quality stabilization and controlled shutdown — ride-through, controlled instrument shutdown, and stabilization during generator transfer. Contact Xtreme Power at (800) 582-4524 or sales@xpcc.com for runtime sizing.
The TX91 is deployed where electrical noise, grounding conditions, and waveform quality directly affect system performance — analytical laboratory instrumentation, mass spectrometry, pharmaceutical and research facilities, industrial measurement and control, semiconductor environments, retail, and harsh electrical infrastructure. Organizations modernizing laboratory and research infrastructure adopt isolation UPS to standardize power quality, improve measurement repeatability, and reduce instrument fault incidence.
The TX91 supports regulated laboratory and government deployments requiring Trade Agreements Act compliance, alongside UL1778, cUL, FCC Class A, and RoHS.
