Protect Plus S500 is a new transformer-less UPS from AEG Power Solutions.
It is said to combine high efficiency values with a compact footprint and flexible configurations.
Reducing overall cost of ownership, AEG says this latest addition to its PS range is ideal for small and medium applications where low power consumption, ease of maintenance and space are important considerations.
The S500 is a double conversion device (VFI SS 111). AEG claims it ‘eco’ mode allows secured operation up to 99 per cent, thus reducing the utility costs associated with operating a UPS of this type. Moreover, the company says it produces less heat waste resulting in minimised air conditioning costs and with system AC/AC efficiency up to 95.5 per cent.
The UPS features removable internal modules for ease of maintenance, contributing to low MTTR, and parallel units can be hot connected/disconnected. AEG adds that the CAN bus-based distributed control systems ensure “optimum” load sharing and allow the system to be easily expanded up to six units, both in power parallel or N+x redundancy.
The S500 completes the company’s transformer-less UPS range which is designed to protect mission-critical applications from 400VA to 4MVA.
