Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between on-line and standby UPS systems?
On-line UPS systems like the Smart-UPS Modular Ultra use double-conversion technology, continuously converting AC to DC and back to AC. This provides superior power conditioning and zero-transfer-time protection, making them ideal for sensitive equipment. Standby systems only activate during power loss, introducing brief transfer delays.
Can the 10kW UPS scale to 15kW capacity?
Yes, the APC Smart-UPS Modular Ultra is designed with modular architecture, allowing seamless capacity expansion from 10kW to 15kW. This scalability enables organizations to grow their power protection infrastructure without replacing the entire system, protecting IT investments.
How does lithium-ion battery technology improve UPS performance?
Lithium-ion batteries offer faster charging cycles, longer operational lifespan (typically 10+ years), higher energy density, and reduced heat generation compared to traditional lead-acid batteries. This results in lower total cost of ownership and improved reliability for mission-critical applications.
What is the benefit of external battery chassis support?
External battery chassis allow organizations to extend runtime beyond the standard configuration without increasing the main UPS footprint. This provides flexible runtime options tailored to specific recovery time objectives and critical load requirements.
