Solidstate Controls Adds Single-Phase System to its DPP Series of ProcessPower® UPS Products



Provides Clean, Continuous Regulated Power for Critical AC Loads

COLUMBUS, OH-AMETEK Solidstate Controls has introduced a single-phase uninterruptible power supply (UPS) system to its DPP series of products as part of its PROCESSPOWER® family of UPS products.

The new DPP product is a true, on-line double-conversion system that provides clean, regulated, continuous power for critical AC loads. It utilizes a state of the art digitally controlled Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) inverter design that offers advanced communications and control capability. The single-phase DPP is an addition to the product line that already includes the 3DPP, three-phase design.

DPP systems are ideally suited for the needs of the chemical, offshore, process control, power generation, and petrochemical industries. The DPP design incorporates input and output isolation transformers, a dual-source, fully controlled and rated static switch, and a customer-specified internal or remote manual bypass switch.

The unit includes a man-machine interface panel with LCD touch screen that enables continuous monitoring of system status and displays the status via an operational mimic diagram on the LCD panel. User friendly system "Help" buttons and system messages are strategically placed to describe and define menu key functions and displayed data. The menu-driven touch screen is password protected against unauthorized or inadvertent access.

Located directly beneath the display screen is a system interface keypad that provides control of all critical UPS functions, eliminating the reliance on the touch screen for basic operational control of the UPS system. The system's serial (Db9) communications capabilities allow users access to advanced system diagnostic features as well as system adjustments. System reports include information on system voltage, current and frequency, as well as active and historical alarm events, and battery discharge activity. The data logging feature further enhance user's ability to quickly troubleshoot the system, and trend battery usage.
