Introduction

In environments that demand zero downtime, continuous power protection availability is essential. In
order to respond to today's dynamic IT and process-related environments that experience daily
change through new server technologies, migration and centralization, resilient and easily adaptable
power protection concepts are required.
DPA UPScale is the foundation for continuous power protection availability of network-critical
infrastructures in enterprise data centers where business continuity has paramount importance and in
process control environments where manufacturing continuity is essential.
DPA UPScale is a second-generation, high power-density, leading-edge double conversion power
protection technology that is standardized on a modular component approach that helps speed
deployment, improve adaptability and increase system availability while reducing total cost of
ownership.
DPA UPScale is a unique on-demand architecture that integrates the power rack, power distribution
unit, backup battery rack and monitoring and management solutions to allow easy selection of
optimized configurations.
DPA UPScale's distributed parallel architecture provides the highest availability, unmatched flexibility
and, at the same time, lowest cost of ownership in IT environments.
This technical specification provides detailed technical information on the mechanical, electrical and
environmental performance of the DPA UPScale model types to support tender and end-user
requirements. The DPA UPScale family was designed to respond to the most stringent safety, EMC
and other important UPS standards.
The UPS has the Classification Code VFI-SS-111.
