AEG Power Solutions has launched Protect Flex, its industrial grade fully modular UPS. The system has a robust design suitable for demanding environments and is the only one in its category to be configurable to all electrical system schemes with the benefits of power modularity. Protect Flex features a wide range of configurable options and a high level of scalability and flexibility The Protect Flex is designed to meet an increasing demand from industries to secure power supply with an equipment which has a compact footprint yet still offering a high level of reliability and resist to unprotected environment (humidity, corrosion, dust…).
AEG Power Solutions answers with a new concept of UPS systems that combines a modular architecture based on 10 and 15 kVA/kW, hot swappable power modules, transformer-less and IGBT based, with a customizable set of options and provides N+1 inbuilt power redundancy to maximize reliability
Protect Flex is a simplified, flexible and highly cost-effective UPS which can cope effectively with harsh environmental conditions, with an IP43 rating protection. The system is designed to maximize savings in terms of footprint and power installed (kVA). Its electrical and mechanical design, cabling and protection devices, are engineered to maximize security and simplify maintenance operations. High quality UPS, benefiting of the long engineering experience of AEG PS for rugged systems, Protect Flex achieves high reliability with optimum availability. Up time availability is maximised by a high-quality equipment and design with the Mean Time To repair (MTTR) minimized, thanks to its modular and hot-swappable architecture. The scalable architecture of the UPS reduces CAPEX and optimizes OPEX costs. The power modules are based on the latest IGBT double conversion technology, with a low input THDi and input power factor close to one, even when a low percentage of load is applied.
“Operations continuity is not an option in many industries or service businesses today, comments Alessandro Nalbone, product manager AEG Power Solutions. Whenever highly reliable power is needed, Protect Flex provides a compact, flexible and robust solution, minimizing costs and maximizing availability. It’s the ideal combination for many applications such as operations in chemical and petrochemical industry, mining, or any other demanding environment, but also for transport critical applications like control and signaling”.
