Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the PowerWave 9000 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 any changes brought
about by the introduction of new server technologies, migration and centralization.
Such demands are well met by the PowerWave 9000 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
By using a unique modular construction and incorporating the latest technological developments in power engineering, the
PowerWave 9000 represents a completely new generation of transformerless 3 phase UPS-System. 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. A full UPS Specification is
given in Chapter 8 of this manual.
High reliability, upgrade ability, low operating cost and excellent electrical performance are just some of the highlights of
this innovative UPS solution.
Uninterruptible Power Supplies 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
The highlights of this innovative UPS solution include its high reliability, upgrade ability, low operating costs and excellent
electrical performance.
•
Decentralised Parallel Architecture (DPA)
– Highest availability, with near zero down time. 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 9000 is designed around multiple 30kVA, 40kVA,or 50kVA UPS modules.
•
Hot-swappable modules
– Enables system expansion and module replacement to be carried out without disturbing
the connected load.
•
Compact size, small foot print
– Up to 342kW/m² saving on expensive floor space.
•
Flexible battery management
– Advanced management of battery charging and preventive failure diagnostics
avoids premature deterioration of battery life.
•
High ac-ac efficiency (up to 95.7%) even with partial loads
– Results in energy and operational cost savings (TCO)
•
Full power available from 0.9 lead to 0.8 lag
– Blade-server-friendly power; No de-rating required with leading
power factor loads
•
Very low input current distortion
– THDi = < 3-4% @ 100-25% load leads to savings in generator-set power and
installation costs.
