Eaton 93PS hot-swappable UPS

Click2Contact

Eaton has released the 93PS hot-swappable uninterruptible power supply (UPS). Achieving up to 99% efficiency, the 93PS is both virtualisation and cloud-ready. It features Eaton’s Intelligent Power Manager (IPM) and Intelligent Power Protector (IPP) software, which integrate with leading virtualisation and storage platforms so that IT administrators can monitor and manage their complete system from a single pane of glass.

IPM enables the use of simple, policy-based controlled automation, which can be configured to trigger on certain power and environmental events. Load-shedding functionality increases battery run time to provide a larger window of opportunity for SRM disaster recovery.

The 93PS features Eaton’s Energy Saver System (ESS) technology, which enables it to deliver up to 99% efficiency by suspending power modules when power conditioning is not required. It can also switch to double-conversion mode in under 2 ms when needed. ESS enhances reliability by reducing stress on the electrical components, extending the unit’s life and reducing total cost of ownership.

To ensure high efficiency, the product uses Eaton’s Variable Module Management System (VMMS), which optimises the load levels of power modules in a single UPS or in parallel systems by suspending extra UPS capacity.

The device is scalable and comprises a 20 or 40 kW central frame, which can take plug-and-play models. Hot-swappable and hot-scalable modularity means replacement and upgrades typically take less than 10 min. The system can be scaled up to four units in parallel, without increasing the footprint.
