Getting a new standard in high availability power protection for business critical applications.
There are two major reasons for installing a parallel system. The first is to increase the effective UPS capacity to enable the system to power a larger load than is otherwise possible with a single module. The second is to introduce a measure of module redundancy to improve the UPS system reliability. Parallel systems are therefore commonly categorised as either capacity or redundancy systems, although some are intelligent enough to operate as either, depending on the prevailing circumstances.
The unique fault-tolerant , Distributed Parallel Architecture (DPA) designed by Newave protects against single-point-of-failure and ensures maximum uptime and continuous availability.
What is DPA?
The DPA of Newave is a distributed parallel architecture where each module appears as a completely independent UPS-entity with integral power and control electronic circuit for AC-DC, DC-DC, DC-AC and static by-pass. Furthermore, each module includes CPU's and parallel intelligence, reducing the system common point only to the parallel control bus lines. The DPA intelligence ensures the supply by the UPS-power as long as the UPS-power is higher or equal to the critical load power, without transferring the critical load to the by-pass. To increase by-pass availability, and consequently the total system availability, the DPA is extended to the bypasses ensuring highest availability even in case of overload or short-circuits.
