General Description
2.1
Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the PowerWAVE 9500DPA UPS.
Continuous power availability is essential in today’s dynamic IT and process-related work environments. It is equally
important that any installed power protection system is sufficiently resilient and adaptable to handle changes brought
about by the introduction of new server technologies, migration and centralization.
Such demands are well met by the PowerWAVE 9500DPA UPS system, which provides the foundation for continuous
power availability of network-critical infrastructures both in enterprise data centres, where business continuity has
paramount importance, and in process control environments where manufacturing continuity is essential.
Reliability and quality standards
The PowerWAVE 9500DPA UPS incorporates the latest technological developments in power engineering. Representing
a completely new generation of high power three phase UPS systems, its advanced double conversion VFI (Voltage and
Frequency Independent) topology responds fully to both the highest availability and environmentally friendly requirements
compliant with IEC 62040-3 (VFI-SS-111) standards.
Kohler Uninterruptible Power Ltd. specialises in the installation and maintenance of Uninterruptible Power Systems; and
this powerful UPS is just one example of our wide range of state-of-the-art power protection devices that will provide your
critical equipment with a steady and reliable power supply for many years.
Key features
High reliability, upgrade ability, low operating costs and excellent electrical performance are just some of the highlights of
this advanced UPS system. Other key features include:
•
Decentralised Parallel Architecture (DPA)
– Each UPS module contains its own bypass circuit, which greatly
improves the overall system reliability by removing a common point of failure that is often present in more
traditional UPS systems.
•
Truly modular design
– The PowerWAVE 9500DPA is designed around 100 kW rated UPS modules.
•
System expandability
– Each PowerWAVE 9500DPA cabinet can contain up to five UPS modules (500 kW), and
up to six cabinets can be connected together to offer a parallel system capacity of 3.0 MW.
•
Hot-swappable modules
– System expansion and module replacement can be carried out without disturbing the
connected load.
•
Unity output power factor (kVA = kW)
– Blade server friendly. No de-rating required with leading PF loads.
•
Best in class AC-AC efficiency
– up to 96% efficiency minimises operational costs (TCO).
•
Xtra VFI double conversion mode
– A complementary feature which enhances the double conversion efficiency of
the UPS when load power is low compared to total UPS system capacity.
•
Low input power factor (0.99 @ 100% load)
– Cost savings during installation and the entire life cycle (TCO).
•
Ease of operation
– A graphical display panel on the front of the UPS cabinet provides the operator with a single
point of ‘system level’ control, and also allows the operation of each individual module to be interrogated.
•
Flexible battery management
– Advanced management of battery charging and preventive failure diagnostics
avoids premature deterioration of battery life.
•
Top or bottom cable entry
– Allows flexible installation into existing plant infrastructure.
•
Very low input current distortion
– A THDi = <3.5% @ 100% load leads to savings in generator-set power and
installation costs.
