Choosing a power protection solution provider

22 February 2006 Power Electronics / Power Management

Power protection and conditioning equipment is par-for-the-course in any IT, telecoms or industrial environment. Whether you are choosing lightning protection, UPS back-up systems, inverters, power supplies or battery chargers - there is an enormous choice.

Just grab the Yellow Pages or call your IT equipment supplier and your problem is solved - or is it?

Choosing the right solution with the right equipment to match your needs is a little more than simply picking up the phone and hoping that the supplier you choose will understand exactly what you need. Buyers can be overwhelmed by the many UPS/power protection options offered on the market and should always compare 'apples with apples'. It is not just a matter of how much it costs, rather that the right solution with the right equipment is provided for the specific problem. That is why professional advice from the start will save the customer money in the long run.

Sinetech, a leading power protection and conditioning equipment supplier has been around for many years and has met numerous, very diverse customer requirements in a multitude of commercial, telecommunication and industrial environments. The company is successful as each enquiry is carefully analysed and a precise solution for the customer's needs is achieved.

UPS

Uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) systems come in a variety of sizes and topologies ranging from 400 VA to 800 kVA to cater for small offices to large network support systems.

A typical example of a small to medium range capability product is the LT and LH series. With single power handling capabilities from 700 VA to 3,2 kVA and back-up from minutes to several hours, these UPS systems satisfy a number of customer scenarios with arrangements in single or multiple configurations which can be tailored to meet exact customer needs. These sinewave UPS systems are normally ex-stock and available in 'Line Interactive' and 'True Online Double Conversion' configurations.

If one's need is for network or telecoms support, the 19" rack mount RTC Line Interactive series with its built-in rechargeable batteries and automatic voltage regulator, enables the UPS to accept a wide range of input voltage levels while continuing to deliver a safe, secure and reliable output.

The RHC Double Conversion True Online Microprocessor controlled series, is more sophisticated, and is the ultimate in power protection and guarantees absolute protection and freedom from any power disturbance. All systems are supplied with simple-to-operate shutdown software.

Larger power capability is provided by single and three phase UPS systems in the DP series, running from 10 kVA to 60 kVA and the Liebert series from 10 kVA to 800 kVA, in single units which can be multiple-configured to provide power management solutions up to several megawatt.

Inverters

A wide range of inverters is available from Sinetech. Typical among these are the Cotek and PowerMaster ranges with facilities for 12, 24 and 48 V d.c. conversion to line power at 230 V a.c./50 Hz with continuous handling capabilities up to 3 kW. Professional inverters are available up to 72 kW in a 19" configuration.
