Rotary
UPS 1000kVA+ : benefits
The KST group have introduced a range of ‘Battery-less’ Rotary UPS systems that incorporate KST’s unique Rotabloc energy storage technology. These systems have been developed to replace the more traditional battery backed Static & Rotary UPS systems.
The KST Rotary UPS offers a range of technical and commercial
benefits over its main competitors. Its unique, patented, rotabloc energy
storage system (lifetime in excess of 20 years) provides the most advanced
rotary UPS technology available.
No longer will users be subject to the pitfalls associated with Battery backed Rotary UPS systems:-
- High installation costs
- High maintenance costs
- Expensive major overhauls
- Accelerated bearing wear
- Complex system operation
- Excessive capital outlay
So revolutionary is the Rotabloc concept that it addresses all of the points shown above within one simple, reliable system.
KS Technology’s confidence in the performance of the Rotabloc UPS leads them to offer a ‘no cost’ three year ‘all inclusive’ warranty.
Three year ‘no cost’ warranty
The KST three year warranty provides the end user with the following facilities and is included in the purchase price of each module:
- Free maintenance*
- Free service
- Free call-out
- Free parts
- Free labour
- Free condition monitoring
*First year only during three year warranty.
Design
By adopting a ‘battery-less’ construction the Rotabloc UPS system provides a ‘simple’ solution to critical load provision.
The Rotabloc Diesel UPS system is designed to provide battery-less UPS operation during periods of mains fluctuation, short-term loss, complete failure or input supply short circuit.
The unique energy storage system provides sufficient ride-through to ensure that the diesel-gen set can always be connected. Even allowing for extended cranking periods.
Although complex ‘flywheel’ systems have been previously developed, none has managed to provide the level of ‘ride-through’ delivered by the Rotabloc system.
Neither can they offer the simplicity of construction, where standard components are used throughout.
Other attempts have resulted in the production of ‘bridging’ systems that use non-standard components, i.e special bearings, helium gas cooling, electronic power converters and high maintenance designs, which only serve to create excessive costs, both in terms of capital outlay and in ‘day 2’ running costs.
