Most Energy Efficient UPS
Efficient topology combined with patented flywheel technology means CleanSource UPS is up to 98% energy efficient. That's 75% fewer losses than leading competitors.
Compact Footprint
Active Power systems protect up to twice the power in the same space. Because the flywheel takes up less than half the footprint of a conventional battery-based system, CleanSource® UPS makes additional room for revenue-generating equipment in your data centre.
Field Proven
CleanSource UPS is proven to be seven times less likely to fail than traditional UPS with batteries. And with thousands of flywheels operating more than 100 million hours in some of the world's harshest conditions, Active Power systems are proven to perform where it matters most – where you are.
Fault Tolerant UPS
Our unique UPS architecture enables a rugged and highly fault tolerant system that stands up to the toughest load and utility grid conditions.
Environmentally Friendly
Because it wastes less energy, CleanSource® UPS generates up to 75% less carbon emissions than competing technologies.
Economically Sound
Over a 20-year product life, CleanSource® UPS delivers up to 60% TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) savings to your business by reducing power consumption costs – proving that our product can help your bottom line and the environment.
System Operation
The perfect Sine Wave
Clean Source UPS uses a battery-free power module as the basic building block. Each module is rated at 300 kVA fr 480V system and 250 kVA for 400V systems. One or more of these modules are combined with an automatic bypass, grounding transformer and various options such as switch bypass and maintenance bypass to make a complete UPS system.
Flywheel
What makes CleanSource UPS Systems so Special? The answer is Active Power's patented integrated flywheel UPS technology.
Flywheel systems store kinetic energy - energy produced by motion - by constantly spinning a compact rotor in a low-friction environment. When short-term backup power is required because utility power fluctuates or is lost, the inertia allows the rotor to continue spinning and the resulting kinetic energy is converted to electricity.
