Thats my question....
Sorry for asking here, its from a remote location or else I would go check for myself. We have two 3000XLs on dedicated 208V circuits. Unfortunately our cooling unit is running on 110V. About once a month the cleaners come and buff the lobby floor of the building. The buffer uses the same circuit as the AC unit, so as soon as both of them are on the circuit pops. It would be great if I could plug the cooling unit to the 208V circuit (through the UPS) but I wouldn't want the AC unit running on the battery pack. There's barely enough runtime for the servers to shut down as it is... I know the smaller UPSs have a non-battery outlet, not sure about the 3000XL.

"Back UPS" is the only UPS product line that offer battery + surge outlets or just plain surge outlets. Any Smart UPS or basically anything larger than a Back UPS have outlets that are all battery + surge. So unfortunately, your 3000XL is a Smart UPS and all of the outlets are battery back up and surge. There is no way around that π
