Advance Galatrek Intros New PowerCentre2 UPS

July 17, 2002 by Jeff Shepard

Advance Galatrek (UK) launched its latest range of PowerCentre2 three-phase-in and three-phase-out uninterruptible power systems (UPS). The new model range offers enterprise-wide power protection for LANs; servers; data and Internet centers; industrial, medical and emergency applications; and communications installations.

PowerCentre2 models range from 200kVA to 800kVA, while runtimes from several minutes to many hours can be achieved by using a local standby generator, or one of Advance Galatrek's battery-extension packs. Up to eight PowerCentre2 units can be installed in parallel, as a redundant N+1 configuration. All PowerCentre2 models feature a three-phase output from a three-phase 400Vac input, with an input-voltage range of ±15 percent.

The PowerCentre2 incorporates double-conversion, on-line technology with a transformer-isolated inverter output. The inverter delivers a constant, stable and clean sinewave power source. The PowerCentre2 uses a mechanical flywheel to pack 500kW into an area no larger than 1m², typically one-tenth the footprint of a conventional battery cabinet.
