Key Features & Capabilities

  • Automatic Static Bypass — Standard Built-in static switch. Transfers to mains on inverter fault; resets automatically when fault clears.
  • Internal Maintenance Bypass — Available Manual switch inside cabinet. Service the UPS while load remains on mains bypass.
  • External Maintenance Bypass Panel — Optional Separate upstream panel. Fully isolates UPS for removal or replacement without load interruption.
  • Input Isolation Transformer — Optional Derived neutral. Blocks spikes, surges, harmonics from input. Prevents nuisance RCD tripping.
  • Modular / Scalable Architecture — Available Add kVA capacity online as load grows. No full system replacement or load interruption required.
  • Hot-Swap Power Modules — Available Replace or add power modules under live load. Zero downtime. MTTR measured in minutes.
  • Hot-Swap Battery Strings — Available Battery replacement from front panel under load. No equipment shutdown or discharge risk.
  • N+1 / 2N Parallel Redundancy — Optional One or more extra units beyond load. Any unit fails — remaining units carry full load seamlessly.
  • Generator-Compatible Operation — Available Filters generator frequency and voltage variations. UPS and genset operate as one coordinated system.
  • Li-ion LFP Battery Option — Available ~60% smaller than VRLA. 10-year design life. 3× faster recharge. Built-in BMS.
  • Tropical & Coastal Protection — Available Conformal coating, anti-condensation heating. Rated for UAE coastal, offshore, and marine environments.
  • SNMP / Modbus / SCADA Integration — Available Remote monitoring via SNMP card or Modbus RTU/TCP. Full SCADA integration on industrial models.

Frequently asked questions

What UPS technology do you supply?
Online double-conversion (VFI) — full isolation from mains disturbances for critical loads.
How do I size a UPS?
Send your load schedule and required autonomy; our engineers size the UPS and battery bank and respond with a configured proposal.
Do you supply batteries and installation?
Yes — batteries, installation, commissioning and maintenance contracts.
Will the UPS work with our standby generator?
Yes — we engineer genset–UPS coordination so the UPS rides through transfer and the generator accepts the UPS load cleanly.
