SKOKIE, IL, July 30, 2003 -- To ensure customers of maximum uptime and total protection from unexpected power disruptions, Sola/Hevi-Duty, a leading supplier of power quality solutions, has introduced its new S5K Modular, an Uninterruptible Power System (UPS) with the scalability required for dynamic, fast-growth environments. By taking advantage of the S5K Modular’s convenient field upgradeability, users can increase VA ratings from 4 to 16kVA, significantly boost run-times, and add N+x parallel redundancy. Just a few standard modules are all that’s needed to expand the S5K Modular, allowing it to grow alongside the systems it protects -- a more cost-effective alternative than purchasing a newer, more expensive UPS.
Each of the modular components, including the 4kVA power modules, battery modules and system control modules, are hot-swappable, making it simple to increase power, extend backup runtime, or add redundancy while still providing superior power protection to the load. The modules feature self-diagnostic capabilities to simplify maintenance and trouble-shooting. In the event a module should fail, it automatically takes itself off-line while the other modules continue to support the connected equipment.Depending on the user’s need for expansion or redundancy, Sola/Hevi-Duty offers its S5K Modular UPS in a choice of two chassis to build on: the “A” chassis, which accommodates up to 8 modules, and the “B” chassis, which has the capacity for up to 12 modules.
In most standard (non-redundant) applications the “A” chassis provides sufficient expansion capabilities.Other features contributing to the outstanding performance of the Sola/Hevi-Duty S5K Modular UPS include: multiple and simultaneous communication ports; a variable input voltage range that minimizes battery operation resulting in increased battery life; an automatic internal bypass for maximum availability of output power; continuous sinewave output to allow full compatibility with a wide variety of power supplies; and power factor corrected input to reduce reflected distortion while optimizing utility power.The Sola/Hevi-Duty Modular UPS is backed by a two-year limited warranty including factory start-up, on-site labor and parts.
