Eaton's New Pulsar UPS Offers Optimum Power Quality And Protection For Network Servers, Storage Systems, VoIP And Sensitive Medical Instrumentation
PITTSBURGH ... Diversified industrial manufacturer Eaton Corporation today announced the introduction of its new Pulsar uninterruptible power supply (UPS) family. Sold under the MGE Office Protection Systems brand, the advanced double-conversion, on-line systems offer optimum power quality and availability for protecting the most sophisticated network, telephony, medical and industrial applications.
The new Pulsar family meets the higher power requirements of today's high-density servers with precise power conversion and compatibility with next-generation power factor correction (PFC) power supplies. The Pulsar UPS systems deliver pure power combined with complete network integration software and communication connectivity, providing a comprehensive, easy-to-integrate solution for protecting IT systems.
"As dense server configurations continue to become a larger part of typical information technology (IT) operations, users are experiencing a significant growth in load levels, which substantially increases demand on the power infrastructure," said Hervé Tardy, vice president and general manager, Distributed Power Quality Division of Eaton. "The high-efficiency double-conversion on-line design addresses this issue by offering a high output factor and level of available wattage, eliminating the need to over size the UPS and resulting in significant cost savings."
The Pulsar 700, 1000, and 1500VA units feature multiple-form factors. Tower and rack options are available in various sizes to accommodate a variety of networking and telecommunication enclosures. All Pulsar models accommodate a multi-position power distribution unit (FlexPDU) that saves space by adding receptacles to the back, side or top of the UPS - freeing up space in dense rack environments. In addition, a universal HotSwap Maintenance By-Pass module is designed to assure power continuity by allowing the UPS to be replaced without interrupting the power supply.
During a power outage, the Pulsar can protect connected equipment for up to five hours with optional external battery modules. For increased continuity, the Pulsar's internal battery can be hot-swapped from the front panel while the UPS remains in the rack. In addition, the Pulsar features a wide input voltage tolerance that allows the UPS to accept wide voltage fluctuations. This feature minimizes the frequent transfer to batteries - thus saving battery life. To maximize backup time for critical devices connected to the UPS, Powershare technology enables users to remotely reboot systems and gracefully turn off less critical equipment.
All Pulsar models include USB and serial ports for remote communications and power management. Network integration with HP OpenView, IBM Netview, CA Unicenter and HP Insight Manager is handled with an optional network management card. The Pulsar UPS comes with a free version of Enterprise Power Manager to manage up to five UPSs or other power devices (PDUs, PoE midspans please explain these), regardless of brand.
