0.2 POWERSCALE SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
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.
POWERSCALE 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 environment where manufacturing continuity is essential.
POWERSCALE is an advanced double conversion UPS, VFI (Voltage and Frequency Independent)
topology that responds fully to both highest availability and environmentally friendly requirements
compliant with IEC 62040-3 (VFI-SS-111) standards.
The POWERSCALE UPS features innovations that combine to deliver the industry's best key values like:
enhanced power performance, parallel capability and connectivity's interaction.
When operating in parallel configuration, each POWERSCALE can take the leadership role avoiding
single points of failure in the parallel chain ensuring the highest level of power availability.
The most demanding IT infrastructures start with low power before achieving its full capacity. It is in this
case essential to be able to recover the missing power requirement without risk for the applied load.
POWERSCALE allows for system upgrades to meet the highest level of availability interruption free and
without a temporary transfer the load to row mains (by-pass).
This Technical Specification provides detailed technical information on the mechanical, electrical and
environmental performance of the POWERSCALE that can support to give answers to tender and end-
user requirements. The POWERSCALE was designed to respond to the most stringent safety, EMC and
other important UPS standards.
POWERSCALE is a stand-alone UPS which can be paralleled for power protection increase and/or for
redundancy purpose. It offers 7 different power ranges: 10-15-20-25-30-40-50kVA in three different
cabinet sizes.
Up to 20 UPS can be paralleled together to achieving any redundant power capacity with common or
separate battery configuration.
