Product Features
Technical Overview
This SmartOnline UPS employs a double-conversion online design that continuously converts incoming AC power to DC, then back to stable AC, ensuring complete isolation from sags, surges, harmonics, and frequency variations. The 30 kVA capacity supports substantial loads, while the unity output power factor (1.0) maximizes usable power, allowing more equipment to be supported without overloading the unit.
Management capabilities are comprehensive, featuring a large 5-inch color touchscreen LCD on the front panel for intuitive local monitoring and control. The display provides real-time status, alarm settings, maintenance information, and diagnostics. Four LED indicators offer at-a-glance status for AC mode, bypass, battery, and fault conditions. For remote management, the UPS supports SNMP, SSH, and Telnet, with optional network cards available for enhanced functionality.
Key Product Advantages
