Standby Power Units and UPS
UPS units coupled with mains failure plants for feeding battery blocks are the most intelligent and economical means of providing an uninterruptible supply of power. We always recommend this type of system in safety-critical applications such as powering life-support machines, safety technology, computer centres etc.The UPS unit is supplied continuously with emergency power by the mains failure plant and can therefore remain in operation much longer without interruption.It is important that the components of the system are well coordinated with one another to avoid harmful knock-on effects. For this reason we supply both components, perfectly adapted to one another from one single source. The safest solution!Below, we explain why you should decide on this combination, as well as the types, powers ranges and technical data on which it is based.We have listed the most important facts and data for installing the system in a container.
Why this is the perfect system for your data centre:
- It is completely independent of the public mains supply
- It ensures uninterrupted operation in case of mains failure – no constructional alterations or costly installation work necessary
- It maintains power supply over any period due to its variable tank capacity
- It is flexible and economical – the location can be changed or capacity enlarged by modular UPS units
- The power-supply system is well protected against lightning
- It comprises integrated power management and network-server shut down
- The costs for maintenance and service are low
- It has an optional 7 x 24 h remote-monitoring system
