On-line UPS systems balance mission-critical power density, convenience

Tripp Lite has this month introduced new on-line UPS systems that the manufacturer says make mission-critical power protection more compact, convenient, and user-friendly than ever before.

The company says its new SmartOnline Unity PF UPS systems offer 5 kW or 6 kW options and internal batteries in just a 3U form factor, providing best-in-class power density and run-time. The new units also modernize maintenance and management features, says Tripp Lite, giving IT staff the time and confidence to focus on other responsibilities.

Per the manufacturer:

The single-phase Unity PF UPS systems save valuable rack space for mission-critical and/or revenue-generating equipment like servers, storage and network hardware. Their unity power factor (1.0) design provides optimal power density for supporting more equipment, and ENERGY STAR 2.0-certified efficiency reduces operating costs. They are ideal for protecting and supporting important equipment in small/medium business IT spaces, network closets, data centers, colocation facilities, manufacturing and healthcare environments.

Internal smart batteries automatically provide proactive replacement alerts and highly accurate runtime data to prevent unexpected loss of power to critical loads. Optional bypass PDUs offer controllable outlet banks and blind-mate connections, giving customers more specific load control and helping them perform maintenance without costly assistance from an electrician.

All models include a preinstalled network management card, and the network management console can be accessed instantly from a network-connected mobile device by scanning a QR code on the front-panel LCD.

“We believe you should never have to experience unexpected downtime when you purchase a networked UPS,” says Rusty Scioscia, sr. product manager – Single-Phase UPS & Power Conversion, at Tripp Lite. “Our new Unity PF series offers smart batteries that proactively help you protect your critical equipment from power loss. Blind-mate bypass PDUs with controllable outlet banks, a Tripp Lite exclusive, also enable faster installation and easier maintenance, allowing your team to spend time on better things.”
