APC E3SPOPT001 | Easy UPS 3S Pro Cold Start Kit, 10-40 kVA, 400V, 3:3, External Batteries

Q: What does the APC E3SPOPT001 cold start kit do?
A: It enables the Easy UPS 3S Pro to start up on battery power when no mains supply is present. This 'cold start' capability is essential in scenarios where power must be restored from the UPS itself during a complete site blackout.

Q: Which APC UPS models is this kit compatible with?
A: This kit is designed exclusively for the APC Easy UPS 3S Pro range operating at 400 V, 3:3 topology (three-phase in, three-phase out), covering models from 10 kVA to 40 kVA.

Q: Is this kit required for all Easy UPS 3S Pro installations, or only specific configurations?
A: It is specifically required for deployments using external battery strings where cold start functionality is needed. Standard internal battery configurations may not require this kit — check your site requirements and UPS configuration before ordering.

Q: Can this kit be installed in the field, or does it require factory fitting?
A: The E3SPOPT001 is a field-installable option kit, allowing the cold start function to be added to an existing Easy UPS 3S Pro installation without returning the unit to a service centre.

Q: What is included in the cold start kit?
A: The kit includes a cold start board, a cold start button, and the necessary cables to integrate the function into the Easy UPS 3S Pro chassis.
