The TX91L is an isolation-based online double-conversion tower UPS (3.8 to 10 kVA) built for environments where both electrical noise and outage duration are critical design factors. Unlike internally battery-integrated platforms, the TX91L is engineered around scalable external battery systems — so runtime can be sized from minutes to multiple hours to match the site. An integrated galvanic isolation transformer electrically separates the utility input from the load, eliminating common-mode noise that transformerless designs leave exposed, while a programmable 1–4 A charger supports the large battery strings that extended runtime requires. True sine wave output, ±1% regulation, ANSI/IEEE C62.41 surge protection, dual output voltages, generator compatibility, a 3-year electronics warranty, and TAA compliance.
The TX91L defines the category of isolation-based UPS systems optimized for extended-runtime deployment. It is built for facilities that must address two problems at once: electrical instability — noise, grounding issues, harmonic distortion, transients — and outage duration. The integrated isolation transformer conditions power at the source, while a scalable external battery architecture engineers runtime to the application, from ride-through and generator stabilization to multi-hour facility continuity. Standard online UPS platforms provide continuous conditioning but do not address electrical noise and extended runtime to the same degree within a single unit.
The TX91L carries no internal batteries. Runtime is delivered entirely by external battery systems sized to the deployment, which is what lets a single platform span short ride-through and multi-hour continuity. A programmable 1–4 A charger (273 VDC, set from the LCD) is sized to recharge the larger battery strings that long-duration runtime depends on.
| Runtime objective | How the TX91L supports it |
|---|---|
| Ride-through & controlled shutdown | Smaller external strings cover brief outages and orderly shutdown of sensitive systems |
| Generator startup & stabilization | Bridges and stabilizes the load while generator-backed infrastructure starts and settles |
| Multi-hour facility continuity | Large external battery systems extend runtime to hours for prolonged-outage strategies |
| Site-specific sizing | Battery capacity is matched to load and continuity targets rather than a fixed internal pack |
Because runtime is defined by external battery configuration, it is engineered per site. Contact Xtreme Power at (800) 582-4524 or sales@xpcc.com for runtime sizing, or use the UPS sizing tool.
Unlike transformerless UPS platforms, the TX91L incorporates an 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 reliability in electrically challenging environments:
| 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 equipment |
| Voltage transient propagation | Transients are attenuated rather than passed through to the load |
The result is improved waveform integrity and a stable ground reference — without the expensive dedicated circuits a non-isolated approach would require.
No internal batteries — runtime is delivered by external battery systems sized to the site, enabling everything from ride-through and generator stabilization to multi-hour facility continuity within one platform.
A high-current charger, adjustable from 1 to 4 A at the LCD (273 VDC), is sized to recharge the large external battery strings that extended runtime requires.
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% regulation and dual output voltages (240/120V or 230/115V), plus 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 static switch transfers output to the isolated bypass source on overload or fault, a manual maintenance bypass enables service, and auto restart plus generator compatibility suit generator-backed infrastructure.
The TX91L and TX91 share the same isolation architecture but are optimized for different deployment strategies. Choose the TX91L when runtime requirements exceed internal-battery capabilities, or when large battery systems are needed for facility-level continuity planning. Choose the internal-battery TX91 for compact, self-contained, laboratory-focused power quality.
| Attribute | TX91L (this platform) | TX91 (internal battery) |
|---|---|---|
| Battery architecture | External battery systems (no internal batteries) | Internal batteries (external packs optional) |
| Runtime profile | Extended — minutes to multiple hours, site-engineered | Short-duration ride-through and shutdown |
| Charger | Programmable 1–4 A for large strings | Standard charger for internal packs |
| Primary use | Infrastructure continuity & generator-backed sites | Laboratory / analytical power quality |
| Isolation transformer | Integrated | Optional, integrated |
The TX91L sits where electrical isolation and outage duration are both primary design requirements. It complements the runtime-flexible P91 rack platform and the internal-battery TX91, and pairs with lithium platforms for higher-density facility continuity.
Standard online UPS systems provide continuous power conditioning but do not address electrical noise or extended runtime at the same level. Transformerless platforms prioritize efficiency and compact size while providing no electrical isolation between input and output. The TX91L extends beyond conventional UPS functionality by combining isolation-based power conditioning with scalable external battery systems — suited to environments where electrical instability and outage duration both impact performance.

| Model | Capacity (kVA / kW) | Dimensions (W × D × H) | Weight |

All models are tower form factor with unity output power factor, ±1% regulation, an integrated isolation transformer, and a 273 VDC programmable charger (1–4 A, set at the LCD). Batteries are external. Input and output land on terminal blocks or an optional configurable PDU; an input L6-30P cord is available on the 3.8 / 5 / 6 kVA models (6 kVA capacity is reduced by a 30 A input circuit), while the 10 kVA lands on terminal blocks.
The TX91L is deployed where both electrical conditions and outage duration require engineered solutions — industrial automation systems, retail and distributed commercial infrastructure, laboratory and analytical environments, medical diagnostic systems, broadcast and AV infrastructure, and facilities with unstable utility or generator-backed power. It is commonly chosen to replace conventional UPS systems that lack sufficient isolation or runtime, and to standardize both isolation and runtime strategy across distributed or facility-level deployments.
The TX91L supports regulated commercial, government, and industrial deployments requiring Trade Agreements Act compliance, alongside UL1778, cUL, FCC Class A, and RoHS.
