Parallel mode 

MZ  series  power  supplies  can  work  in parallel  with  each  other to  increase  system  power,  or 
provide redundancy. MZ series power supplies can operate in parallel to 8 devices, which means 
that the maximum power of the MZ80K UPS system is 640kVA. 
In the parallel operation of the power supplies, the load is divided evenly between all working 
UPS units. In the case of a redundant system, eg N + 1, failure of a single unit does not affect the 
operation of other devices, and the system guarantees continuity of guaranteed power for the 
full power of the designed system.
