PowerWave 9000 Model range
The PowerWave 9000 UPS is based on a range of 30kVA to 50kVA plug-in power modules fitted into one of three
purpose-designed cabinets. Each power module is a self-contained UPS comprising a rectifier, battery charger, inverter
and static switch; and when two or more modules are fitted into a cabinet they effectively operate as a parallel UPS
system. The available cabinets can contain up to one, three or five power modules as shown below in Figure 2.1.
The PowerWave 9000 cabinets are identified as CLASSIC DPA-50, TRIPLE DPA-150 and UPGRADE DPA-250 – where
the model number represents the maximum kVA output available when the cabinet is fully populated with 50 kVA power
modules. Figure 2.1 shows that the DPA-50 and DPA-150 cabinets include shelves for housing the UPS batteries;
however the DPA-250 cabinet has no internal battery mounting facilities and requires an external battery cabinet. A range
of matching battery cabinets is available which are installed adjacent to the UPS cabinet in the majority of installations. An
additional (external) battery cabinet can also be connected to the DPA-50 and DPA-150 models to extended the overall
system autonomy time if desired.

Key Point:
All the modules fitted within a cabinet must be of the same rating – for example, it is not possible to
mix 30kVA and 50kVA modules in the same cabinet.
