Marine UPS ideal for any critical application
Ockenden based Avel Lindberg, has introduced the Star 2000 Range DSP - a customised Socomec UPS specifically designed to meet the rigorous requirements of marine and offshore industries.
UPS management through a net browser
Socomec Sicon UPS has just launched Net Vision, a cost effective UPS communication and management interface that enables users to configure, monitor and manage any UPS effortlessly through the net.
When Socomec first introduced its Digys UPS range in 1999, it represented a major advance in UPS design by pioneering the use of digital signal processors and IGBT technology.
An ongoing development programme, aimed at ensuring the company maintains its lead in UPS design, has culminated in the introduction of the even higher-spec Digys Evo.
This incorporates the very latest technical advances and offers significantly enhanced capabilities.
Like its predecessor, the Digys Evo is fully DSP controlled with IGBT providing the perfect sine wave output required for nonlinear loads and strong inrush currents.
It also has a programmable ECO-mode for greater operational economy.
This allows sensitive loads to be disconnected when not required, leaving emergency lighting and other noncritical systems to be powered by mains until power is automatically switched back 'online' when the applications needs protection again.
Certain configurations in low voltage distribution networks, especially when supplied by generators, require that the rectifier's harmonic current feed be limited.
The Evoplus rectifier in the new models has been developed with a high performance 'clean' input current, generating harmonic feedback below 5%.
This performance is independent from the frequency and impedance of the rectifier input power supply.
The Evoplus technology is fully compatible with all distribution networks, including those with filtering or power factor compensation systems.
For the Digys Evo, Socomec has developed an innovative battery charging system which increases battery life expectancy by as much as 30%.
Standard backup time is up to 4h (up to 20kVA).
For customers requiring extra-long backup time, up to three Evochargers can by installed in parallel.
The Digys Evo range meets all relevant European standards, is easily installed and up to four modules can be set up in parallel.
There are models in the range designed to satisfy the most specific of requirements including emergency lighting and mission critical applications.
