Introduction

Eaton’s Powerware® Energy Management System (EMS) Upgrade Kit (EMS−UGK) is designed to monitor energy usage of existing power distribution panelboards, remote power panels, or power distribution units. Providing outstanding performance and reliability, the EMS−UGK’s unique benefits include the following:

SMonitors up to 42 (single panel) or 84 (dual panel) circuits in a standard three−phase panelboard. Measures and stores energy parameters for each of the individual monitored circuits, letting you manage power with greater precision.

SFunctions in a wide variety of applications supporting various data center loads that may require a power distribution monitoring solution, especially where power needs are changing and backup architecture must be scalable.

SCan be mounted on a wall with the included mounting bracket and customer−supplied fasteners appropriate for the type of wall.

SChoice of voltage sensing installation: connection to an unoccupied circuit breaker using included transition harnesses or connection to an occupied circuit breaker using included wire taps.

SIncludes a software tool for easy configuring of settings and options.

SAll harnesses supplied except for optional external ground.

SNo preventive maintenance required other than verifying the hardware and wiring are clear of debris. The EMS−UGK does not require an annual calibration.

SAdvanced Metering monitoring system, providing communication options such as network connectivity through the Power Xpert® Gateway Card installed in the X−Slot® communication bay.

SIntended for continuous duty operation.

SBacked by worldwide agency approvals.

The Powerware series of uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) is renowned for its versatility and reliability in providing essential power protection for critical equipment across various environments. Specifically, the configurations of 208/120V, 400/230V, 380/220V, and 415/240V cater to a wide range of geographic voltage standards, making it an ideal solution for diverse industrial and commercial applications.

One of the defining features of the Powerware UPS is its robust architecture which ensures high availability and reliability. Designed for mission-critical environments, these units often come equipped with advanced technologies that facilitate seamless operation during power interruptions or fluctuations.

The Powerware UPS employs double-conversion online technology that offers superior protection by continuously converting incoming AC power to DC and then back to AC. This process isolates the connected equipment from all power disturbances, such as surges, sags, and electrical noise, thus ensuring clean and stable output power. With this technology, users can rest assured that their sensitive electronics and IT infrastructure are shielded from any potential damage caused by irregular power supply.

Additionally, the Powerware series includes intelligent battery management systems that extend battery life and optimize performance. This feature involves real-time monitoring of battery health and automatic adjustment of charging methods to enhance efficiency. Users benefit from reduced maintenance costs and increased operational uptime due to improved battery management.

Moreover, the Powerware UPS is designed with scalability in mind. These units can be configured in parallel for load sharing, allowing organizations to expand their power capacity as needed without having to invest in entirely new systems. This flexibility is particularly beneficial for growing businesses that anticipate increased power needs over time.

The compact design and enhanced cooling systems further characterize the Powerware UPS, making it suitable for installations in space-constrained environments. The units are often equipped with user-friendly interfaces, providing easy access to critical information and diagnostics for power management.

In summary, the Powerware series with 208/120V, 400/230V, 380/220V, and 415/240V configurations represents a comprehensive solution for ensuring uninterrupted power supply in various settings. Its advanced technology, battery management features, scalability, and space-saving design make it an excellent choice for organizations seeking reliable power protection.
