Rotating UPS

Pon Power AS can offer Caterpillar’s rotating UPS’, which are a tested and reliable solution with an impressive 99.9999% uptime guarantee. This means that the product could fail once in 1 million power cuts (i.e. that the computers crash). No other UPS manufacturer or generator supplier matches this uptime guarantee.


Efficiency, the environment and personal safety

Large UPS systems with batteries usually have 92-93% efficiency. Caterpillar UPS’ offer 96-98%, which means significantly lower power consumption and less need for cooling. Conventional UPS’ must also be located in protected environments at a temperature of approx. +22 degrees, while Rotating UPS have a temperature window from -20 degrees to + 40 degrees. Personal safety is higher without the risk of emissions from batteries (explosion hazard), and the unit can be located in switchboard rooms, generator rooms, etc. 


Dimensions and installation

Caterpillar UPS emits virtually no returned noise, and has a cos phi of 0.99. This gives a ratio of 1:1.1 dimension between the UPS and diesel generator, which means a very cost-effective solution for customers. Conventional UPS’ with 6 pulse rectification have a ratio of 1:2.5, offering customers significant reductions in the size, fuel consumption, etc for the unit when a CAT UPS is selected. CAT UPS’ also have a small footprint, 250kVA = 1m2.

 

Our reference list of CAT UPS that have been delivered includes:
  • major telecoms operators
  • system integrators
  • public utilities
  • banks
  • power stations, etc.
One example is the telecoms operator Cable & Wireless, which has installed 7 x 250kVA rotating CAT UPS in its computer hall in France. According to our information, batteries are responsible for more than 70% of failures in conventional UPS’ and diesel generators.
