Industrial rack mount online UPS improves user interface and lead time

Emerson has released its new Series D update to the family of proven SolaHD industrial rack mount online UPSs. The new SolaHD S4KD Series replaces the current S4KC Series, delivering significant user interface improvements and other design upgrades to improve reliability and product availability. The S4KD is an online (double conversion) UPS, providing a zero-transfer time from external to internal power upon utility power failure to supply a seamless power flow for critical loads. The device is available in 1000-3000VA in 120V and 3000VA in 230V configurations, each housed in a slim 2U form factor.

This line of UPSs are proven performers, with rugged metal housings and hardwired connections, providing reliable power for automation, MPU/PC-based hardware, networking, telecommunication, medical, and other mission-critical systems. The series builds upon the outstanding ruggedness, battery life, and power quality of the previous series, and it includes new hardware design updates to improve usability, efficiency, and reliability.

"Users will immediately appreciate the updates to the user experience and advanced diagnostics, which will greatly improve their overall commissioning and maintenance schedules," said Kyle McLeod, product marketing manager UPS for SolaHD at Emerson Discrete Automation.

The series can be configured and provide status and diagnostic information using the onboard interface without needing a laptop. The LCD colour graphical display is gravity sensitive, properly orienting itself for easy viewing and operation regardless of the UPS's installation position. State-of-the-art diagnostics alert users about battery health status, efficiency metrics, replacement date prediction, data logging, input/output real-time tracking, bypass operation, faults, and much more, empowering users to keep their systems operating at peak performance.

Quality UPS technology is required by specifying engineers, systems designers, original equipment manufacturers, and others developing applications for critical industries, such as energy, oil and gas, food and beverage, chemicals, life sciences, and more. The Emerson SolaHD industrial rack Mount UPS Series D meets these requirements by maintaining the preceding series's rugged design and reliable performance while adding significant user interface improvements and state-of-the-art diagnostics.
