UNINTERRUPTIBLE POWER SYSTEM (UPS)
Now you can protect your critical processes better than ever before. Caterpillar® brings you the Uninterruptible Power System (UPS), providing reliable protection against the full range of power events likely to affect your facility. The Cat® UPS instantly and precisely corrects for power events as brief as a few milliseconds. For prolonged events, a gen set start option supplies starting voltage to an on-site backup generator - a system 10 times more reliable than battery-powered start-up. HERE IS HOW THE CAT UPS WORKS: Normal Operation: The Cat UPS continuously monitors utility power quality while using a small amount of power to keep the flywheel fully charged. Brief Event: When Cat UPS senses an abnormal voltage or interruption, the flywheel supplies power to the critical load. After the event, operation returns to normal. Continuous Power: The CAT UPS is designed to be generator set friendly and only requires "1 to 1" sizing unlike battery systems. Once the generator set is started and up to speed, the CAT UPS walks in the load. A 24 VDC option even allows the generator to start with the flywheel energy without the use of the generator starting batteries (which is typically the #1 reason generator sets won't start.) » Cat Flywheel UPS Spec Sheets » Cat Double Conversion UPS » Type 150 Battery Cabinets » Type 300 Battery Cabinets » Type 400 Battery Cabinets » Type 490 Battery Cabinets |
