Schneider Electric extends Galaxy
VS 3-Phase UPS with internal
smart battery modules
Schneider Electric, a leader in
Digital Transformation of energy
management and automation, has
announced that the Galaxy VS 3-phase
Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) with
internal smart battery modules now
extends from 10 to 100 kW. This release
also introduces support for internal N+1
module level redundancy, improving
system availability by up to 10 times.
Galaxy VS with internal batteries is now
the highest density uninterruptible power
supply in the industry, making it ideal
for the unique requirements of Edge
Computing and critical infrastructures.
Offering 99% efficiency in ECOnversion
mode, the Galaxy VS modular design
is easy to deploy and service, making
it ideal for critical IT, commercial and
industrial applications. The internal smart
battery modules improve availability with
added battery flexibility and monitoring,
redundant battery strings and selfconfiguration.
This design reduces risk
by ensuring critical loads are always
protected with highly predictable runtimes
and battery redundancy.
“With its industry leading density and
N+1 availability, this Galaxy VS expansion
addresses the growing need within the
Edge Computing and data centre industries
for solutions that are highly available, fully
managed and highly efficient without
increasing UPS footprint,” said Bin Lu,
Senior Vice President of Data Centre
Systems, Secure Power, Schneider Electric.
Additional Galaxy VS
benefits include:
• Footprint savings: Compact design
and full front access for servicing
makes it ideal for confined spaces
• Maximum availability thanks
to modular architecture: Critical
system components built as modules
for faster serviceability and fault
tolerance
• Cost savings: Provides up to 99%
efficiency when operated in Schneider
Electric’s patented ECOnversion
mode, allowing users to recover their
initial investment within two to three
years through energy savings (model
dependent)
• Increased uptime and simplified
maintenance: Critical system
components are built as modules
with a fault-tolerant design. This
provides internal redundancy at
reduced load levels and a shorter
mean time to repair
• EcoStruxure Ready: Makes it easy
to manage with global visibility
of equipment performance and
status supported with a 24×7
expert service bureau using the
next generation management
software, EcoStruxure IT Expert and
EcoStruxure Asset Advisor. ◊
