Power Inspired Launch New Wave of Uninterruptible Power Supplies

Filed under: Announcements — Tags: — toneus @ 8:58 pm

Oxford based Power Inspired, manufacturers and suppliers of Uninterruptible Power Supply systems are set to shake up the UPS Industry with a new range of products designed to provide outstanding levels of power protection at highly competitive rates.

Power Inspired’s Tony Bell states “We’re delighted with the way our VIX series UPS System has performed. It’s a highly reliable Battery Backup system designed for home PC’s and small workstations. It sums up what we are about – providing power protection products at a fraction of traditional prices that do exactly the job that you need them to do. We had a number manufactured but demand caught us unaware and we quickly sold out. We’ve recently just taken delivery of our next batch and we look forward to meeting the existing demand for this popular product.”

The VIX series is only one piece of the jigsaw. Tony adds “Moving forward from the VIX series we have a new range of line interactive sine-wave products coming very soon, for more professional applications, and our new range of online double conversion products is absolutely superb – designed especially for high-end IT applications.”

Power Inspired’s product range is complimented by the range of online double conversion UPS Systems from Dale Power Solutions. “The Dale products compliments our own range and allows us to fill the gaps where we are missing in some key areas – in the standard online UPS requirements and higher powered devices including three phase products. We can now supply everything, including three phase products directly from stock”.

Where just a small letter can have such a big difference

Filed under: Uncategorized — Tags: , , , — toneus @ 9:02 am

Scouring the web I came across this press release from Chloride North America announcing the launch of their Agility Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS).

I was intrigued, as the release states that they have five high density models ranging from 750kVA to 3000kVA, all in a “standardised 2U chassis”!

Wow, Chloride must have discovered a working cold fusion reactor and superconductivity at room temperature in order to cram 3MVA of power into a 2U rack space. The worlds power problems are solved!

Unfortunately the unit specs tell a different story. Somebody has put in the letter “k” in front of VA by mistake. This means the sizes are out by a factor of 1000, 750,000VA instead of 750VA, and 3,000,000VA instead of 3000VA. A bit of a difference!

For their benefit I’ve included a few of the common SI units used in engineering today for reference:

G: Giga = x 1,000,000,000
M: Mega = x 1,000,000
k: Kilo = x 1,000
m: milli = ÷ 1,000
μ: micro = ÷ 1,000,000
n: nano = ÷ 1,000,000,000
