ADAPTABILITY WITH ELECTRICAL INFRASTRUCTURES
Electric infrastructures in Data Centers can be various and very specific according to the power size, geographical
positions, local laws, technical/design choices, building typology and other several reasons.
Electric infrastructure may also change along the time, in case of renewal, reorganization or enlargement of the Data
Center. In other cases, the room and the electric system already exist, they were originally used for other applications
and currently are supposed to house a server farm or other IT infrastructures.
A UPS which is designed to be compatible (natively or easily configurable) with various electric infrastructures is, for
sure, a great advantage with consequent time and cost saving. In particular, it is very useful to have full compatibility
with the various grounding systems, easy and comfortable electric connections, suitability different electric connections
(cable/busbars), in/out signal port to coordinate the UPS operations with surrounding distribution and protection devices.
Another important feature of the UPS is the extremely low electric
impact on the electric network. Minimum harmonics pollution and zero
reactive power absorption are, nowadays, a basic requirement and are
as essential as a clean and stable output voltage; but UPSs for Data
Centers must be also full compatible with isolation transformers,
Genset, ATS, STS and other devices which are typically used in Data
Centers electric systems.
Legrand UPS are designed to be compatible with wide scenarios of
electric systems.
They are all compatible with the different grounding system, can work
with isolation trafo both in input and output. They have dedicated controls for input absorption which makes them
suitable to work with GenSet, ATS and other upstream systems. Input, bypass and output performances make the
Legrand UPS fully compatible with all the electric distribution items of Legrand portfolio for a complete integrated
Electric infrastructure both for grey and white room of the Data Center.
