The Xtreme Power Conversion P91-1500 and Eaton 9PX1500RT are true online, double-conversion UPS systems designed to protect critical IT, network, AV, and edge infrastructure. Both deliver continuous sine-wave output and enterprise-grade protection from power disturbances.
However, the P91-1500 differentiates itself with higher usable output power, significantly faster recharge time, greater runtime scalability, lighter weight, and full TAA compliance, making it especially well suited for long-runtime installations, space-constrained racks, and U.S. government or public-sector environments.
