System Benefits Include:

The compact, lightweight, and reliable Liebert FS flywheel system is safe and environmentally friendly.

Offers a low installation cost, small footprint, low maintenance and long operating life.

Unlike batteries, the Liebert FS uses no toxic metals and emits no explosive gases.

Provides quick recharge, operates under a wide range of temperatures.

Patented safety system provides a safe shutdown under all circumstances.

When used with batteries, becomes the primary DC energy source of more than 98% of power disturbances (most power disturbances

last less than 4 seconds), reserving the battery

When used in a batteryless configuration,

for longer outages, extending battery life and

How It Works:

The Liebert FS stores energy kinetically. When needed, inertia of the spinning mass is immediately converted to power. The Liebert FS is a functional replacement or supplement for a bank of chemical batteries. Like batteries, it charges from the two terminal UPS DC bus and returns up to 190 kW per module whenever the bus voltage drops below a programmable threshold.

The flywheel itself is a high-speed, carbon fiber composite cylinder rotating in a vacuum. The flywheel and rotating group is fully levitated and centered by patented 5-point magnetic levitation system that minimizes drag and eliminates mechanical bearings maintenance and replacement. Its synchronous reluctance motor-generator minimizes idling losses and standby power consumption. Originally designed for hybrid vehicles, the levitation system is very robust and responsive to any jarring.
