Dynamic UPS systems are driven by kinetic energy with electrical rotating machines providing the output voltage. They provide an “infinite” back-up power supply using diesel engines.
This is a different approach to static UPS systems which provide the output voltage via power electronic devices with batteries providing the reserve energy.
The key advantages of dynamic UPS in short:
Financial
- Low total cost of ownership (TCO)
- Smallest footprint in the industry
- Low maintenance costs
- Modular and scalable solutions
Technical & operational
- Natural ventilation
- Operating temperature range up to 50°C
- Elimination of batteries
- No degradation with use
- Low voltage and medium voltage designs
- Capability to supply high short circuit currents
Service & maintenance
- System overhaul every ten years
- Over 20 years’ operating life
- Easier maintenance
- Reduced waste and carbon footprint
