Premium power protection

With the 9355 UPS, data center managers can safely eliminate the effects of electrical line disturbances and guard the integrity of their systems and equipment. The 9355 is a true double-conversion, three-phase system that can be used to prevent loss of valuable electronic information and minimize equipment downtime.

• The 9355 continually monitors incoming electrical power and removes the surges, spikes, sags, and other irregularities that are inherent in commercial utility power
• Working with a building's electrical system, the 9355 supplies the clean, consistent power required by sensitive electronic equipment for reliable operation
• During brownouts, blackouts, and other power interruptions, internal batteries provide emergency power to safeguard operation

Self-diagnosis
The 9355 constantly monitors its own operation —such as voltage, temperature and function of internal components—and sends an alarm or takes action if it detects a potential problem.

Self-correction
If it senses a problem, the 9355 instantly transfers the power path to a bypass source with zero interruption in power. When the alarm condition passes, the 9355 automatically reverts from bypass to normal power. The 9355 UPS features a four-button graphical LCD that provides useful information such as load status, events, measurements and settings.

Advanced battery management

The 9355 UPS offers innovative technologies to maximize the health and service life of its internal and external batteries:

• ABM technology uses a unique three-stage charging technique that significantly extends battery service life and optimizes recharge time when compared to traditional trickle charging
• Temperature-compensated charging monitors battery temperature and adjusts the charge rate accordingly, which properly charges the battery and greatly extends battery life
• An integrated battery management system tests and monitors battery health and remaining lifetime, providing user notification to guide preventive maintenance

Eaton's UPS batteries are field replaceable. One person, working alone, can easily replace a battery without disrupting data center operations or power to protected equipment.

Green power performance

The 9355 delivers a robust combination of low input current distortion and high power factor for maximum efficiency. Operating at greater than 90 percent efficiency across all load ranges, the 9355 helps to reduce utility costs, extend battery runtimes and produce cooler operating conditions. In addition, Eaton's use of sustainable materials and highly efficient manufacturing technology results in dramatic savings in carbon footprint as compared to competitive UPS products.

Maximum runtime, minimum footprint

The 9355 UPS provides industry-leading power density and a 75 percent footprint reduction versus comparable UPS solutions. All standard 9355 configurations incorporate internal batteries to provide up to 350 percent more runtime and offer 13 percent more capacity at equivalent VA ratings. Extended runtime allows the 9355 to power this extra capacity nearly four times longer without additional hardware, eliminating the need for costly and space-consuming external battery cabinets. Standard 10 kVA and 20 kVA capacity models can also be upgraded to 15 kVA and 30 kVA, respectively, providing 50 percent more power with no additional hardware and no increase in footprint.

The 9355's small footprint requires only three to six square feet of floor space, enabling easy data center spaceplanning and preserving valuable raised-floor real estate.

Industry-leading scalability and redundancy

Today's critical applications require redundancy for ultimate reliability—and the 9355 delivers. Eaton's innovative Hot Sync technology and optional maintenance bypass parallel tie cabinet work together with the 9355 to provide an advanced, cost-effective UPS paralleling system.

The patented Hot Sync technology enables system load sharing, allowing any UPS module in the system to serve as a backup for any other module. Hot Sync's wireless paralleling capability also ensures system stability in the event of a communications failure.

Using a wall-mounted maintenance bypass parallel tie cabinet, data center managers can easily parallel up to four 9355 UPSs for either redundancy or capacity. UPSs can be quickly added to the pre-installed parallel tie cabinet and brought online in minutes, and individual UPSs can be isolated and swapped out for maintenance—significantly reducing installation and maintenance expenses.

Most other paralleling systems on the market use a top-down configuration in which the master fails when any subsidiary module fails. With Eaton's unique approach, each UPS is independent, yet synchronized with the others to prevent any single point of failure and help eliminate costly downtime.

Additional paralleling benefits include:

• Scalability, from 10 to 120 kVA using one parallel tie cabinet
• N+3, N+2 or N+1 redundancy, from 10 to 90 kVA in a compact footprint—often in a smaller footprint than a single large UPS
• Redundant battery systems, with each parallel UPS containing its own internal batteries

Power distribution:

Flexible, integrated power distribution

An on-board power distribution module (PDM) gives the 9355 the flexibility necessary to adapt to the diverse and continually changing data center environment. This integrated PDM allows data center managers to preserve valuable rack space and reduce heat by feeding nine to 100 kW of rack servers from one 9355 UPS.

The PDM can be configured to feature a user-selectable mix of NEMA and IEC output receptacles, helping to reduce site preparation and installation costs. These high-density, high-amperage receptacles support blade servers, network switches and other power-hungry IT equipment.

The PDM's circuits are clearly labeled to simplify load balancing while branch circuit breakers provide branch circuit protection and on/off operation for groups of receptacles. Other features include a maintenance bypass switch that allows the data center manager to service the 9355 without shutting down the connected loads to increase availability, reduce mean time to repair and maintenance costs, and lower total cost of ownership.

Simplified rack-based power distribution options

The 9355's on-board power distribution module is compatible with Eaton's optional rack power modules (RPM) and enclosure power distribution units, providing maximum flexibility in distributing power throughout the facility or data center. The RPM and ePDU enable primary power distribution from the 9355 to secondary power distribution devices or directly to IT equipment, for organized power distribution with fewer cables to manage and fewer distribution points to monitor.

Both solutions deliver power to loads of various voltages and can be configured to include user-selectable combinations of NEMA, IEC and hardwired inputs, and NEMA and IEC output receptacles.

ePDUs are available in space-saving 0U-vertical and 1U-horizontal configurations making the ePDU ideal for high-density rack environments.

ePDUs allow users to meter, monitor, switch, sequence and manage branches or individual outlets.
