Vertiv Unveils PowerUPS 9000 Data Center UPS

Vertiv, a critical digital infrastructure and continuity solutions provider, introduced the Vertiv PowerUPS 9000. This high-power, density uninterruptible power supply (UPS) system for data centers occupies a compact footprint, and is engineered to support data center traditional computing, high-density and other IT applications.

The system streamlines installation, with top or bottom cable entry, backfeed protection and ground-fault kit options embedded in the system without requiring extra space or on-site installation. The units are deployable worldwide, helping reduce potential procurement and service inconsistencies, delivery delays and downtime.

“The Vertiv PowerUPS 9000 UPS is engineered to maximize reliability and efficiency and to minimize footprint and complexity,” said Giovanni Zanei, VP, large power, Vertiv. “With its modular structure and high-power density, it will deliver energy-efficient, reliable power protection that data center customers are looking for to protect both traditional and mixed AI applications.”

Dedicated, segregated controls and dual, hot-swappable communication and control boards allow each power module to operate independently. In the event of a fault, the affected module can isolate itself to protect other modules and support continued operation. The continuous-duty, solid-state static bypass switch optimizes the bypass line, and the system is fully hot-service and hot-swappable, meaning maintenance and upgrades can occur without downtime. The PowerUPS 9000 is Vertiv’s most efficient UPS in its product class, with a physical footprint 32 percent smaller than previous generations, and is compatible with the Vertiv EnergyCore lithium battery cabinet and other battery technology, including valve-regulated lead-acid (VRLA) and nickel-zinc.

Vertiv’s PowerUPS 9000 can be enabled with the Vertiv Next Predict preventative maintenance strategy, with advanced monitoring, data-driven health analytics and insight that optimizes site operations. By leveraging AI and ML algorithms to monitor equipment conditions and health, Vertiv’s solution promotes optimal equipment performance and longevity.

It is available globally in UL and CE models, from 250 to 1250kW per unit.
