GEC NEWS WIREEaton has launched new 2.2 kW and 3 kW versions of its 9PX series UPSs, which are ideally suited for providing high quality power protection for virtual servers, hyperconverged solutions, networking devices and small data storage systems.
A key feature of these innovative UPS products is the unity power factor, which means that for a given rating they can power more equipment than conventional UPSs. The products also distinguish themselves through exceptionally high efficiency, which reduces energy costs and cooling requirements. In addition, they are available in optional network versions that support advanced virtualisation capabilities.
Eaton’s new 9PX UPSs are available in 2U versions, which make effective use of space in conventional deep IT racks, and 3U versions, which are ideally suited for use in smaller enclosures with restricted depth, or to protect conventional tower IT devices.
Christophe Jammes, Product Marketing Manager at Eaton EMEA said, “Unity power factor is, for example, something that’s very important to our customers, as it means the kVA rating of the UPS is numerically identical to the kW rating of the load it can supply. As a result, users can get more useful power out of their UPS – typically 11% more – and calculations are no longer needed to work out the size of the load the UPS can support.”
