Fitting into a 19" rack housing measuring just 600mm x 600mm, the Power Station UPS provides up to 12 hours of continuous power, yet takes up to 75% less floor space than traditional systems.
A unique, new, compact UPS from Power Control provides up to 12 hours of continuous power, yet takes up to 75% less floor space than traditional systems.
Called the Power Station, it maintains the continuity, efficiency and profitability of a design office environment by enabling CAD systems to continue functioning during long-term power cuts.
The bespoke system is modular in design and can be provided in variable support times ranging from 700VAC to 6kVA to meet customers' specific requirements.
It has been specially engineered to offer ease of servicing through rapid and easy access to all internal components.
Field upgradeable in both power and backup times, the Power Station has full power module hot-swap capability and a dedicated power charger module, that also includes extra booster charger, switch gear and charger indicator light to show that the unit's batteries are functioning correctly.
Fitting into a 19" rack housing measuring just 600mm x 600mm, the Power Station is aesthetically pleasing with a smoked glass front and includes a secure lock to limit access to authorised personnel.
The fail-safe design includes both an automatic bypass facility as well as a manual bypass facility.
Unlike other UPS that normally provide just five-year battery life, the Power Station offers 10-year or 20-year battery life options.
The system also has an excellent range of very competitive optional smartcards including USHA card, Opto coupler, BMS (building management system) card, etc.
The RS232 serial port offers communication direct to the UPS via a serial cable whilst the installation of an USHA card (universal SNMP and HTTP adapter) provides an easy to use sophisticated management solution offering an interface between the UPS and the network.
The embedded HTTP server is capable of processing, forwarding and receiving HTTP commands whilst the embedded SNMP chips allows messages to be sent and received.
Both facilities can be carried out simultaneously.
Conforming to all relevant electrical safety standards and carrying the CE mark, the Power Station is supported by Power Control's full range of services.
These include specification and free site surveys through to full warranty and maintenance packages, which are undertaken by the company's own fleet of mobile and highly trained engineers and in-house technicians.
