 
Three-Phase On-Line Power Protection for Data Centers, Facilities, and
High Availability Applications The APC Silcon Series has the load capacity
to serve a broad range of electrical equipment - from mainframe computers
to Large Corporation-wide installations, production lines, electronic control
systems and telecommunication equipment. Up to nine Silcon units can be
paralleled to serve special demands for power upgrading or redundancy.
| Features & Benefits |
| Economy |
| Input Power Factor Correction |
The APC Silcon Series is power factor corrected on the
input side, which ensures that the input power factor is always 1 regardless
of load and mains voltage. This considerably reduces installation costs by
allowing the use of smaller cables and smaller fuses. In addition, the APC
Silcon Series reduces the costs associated with generator back-up, as input
power factor correction eliminates the need for oversizing the generator. |
 |
| Delta Conversion On-line Technology |
The APC Silcon Series provides an economic approach to
power protection strategies featuring efficiencies up to 96.5%. The on-line
efficiency translates directly into reduced operating costs by minimizing
heat loss and consequently lowering both electricity and air conditioning
consumption. |
 |
| Full-rated Power with kVA equaling kW |
The full-rated inverter of the APC Silcon Series is a
perfect match for today's power-factor corrected computer loads, eliminating
the need for an oversized UPS. |
 |
| Temperature Compensated Battery Charging |
Temperature Compensated Battery Charging provides
prolonged battery life by regulating the charge voltage according to actual
battery temperature. |
|
| Availability |
| Built-in static bypass switch |
The built-in static bypass switch enables the UPS to
transfer the load to utility power, without interruption, in case of heavy
overload or faulty conditions. |
 |
| 200% overload capability |
The APC Silcon Series has the ability to supply 200%
overload in normal operation for a period of 60 seconds. This enables the
system to handle inrush currents, sudden peak loads and output faults
without transitioning to bypass. The result is increased availability. |
 |
| Paralleling Features for Capacity and Redundancy |
If required for capacity or redundancy, APC Silcon
Series can easily be expanded by paralleling units. Up to four units can be
configured in parallel without the need for an external control cabinet. For
even higher power requirements or redundancy a total of up to nine units can
be paralleled to supply the load. |
|
| Manageability |
| Intelligent Battery Management |
The APC Silcon Series features intelligent battery
monitoring and temperature-compensated battery charging. Battery data is
continuously compared to pre-programmed data in the monitoring software to
ensure reliable batteries. A reduction in battery capacity automatically
triggers an alarm. |
 |
| Smart Slot |
By adding APC accessory cards into the SmartSlot you can
monitor power conditions and take actions accordingly. The addition of the
accessory cards increases overall system availability by proactively
notifying you of conditions that could affect uptime (accessories sold
seperately). |
 |
| Built-in Web/SNMP management |
Provides full UPS management via multiple open standards
like Telnet, HTTP, SNMP and pager notifications. It is a full-featured,
robust power management product that is certified for and integrates with
all other APC management products. |
 |
| Multiple System Shutdown |
Multiple System Shutdown enables the UPS to communicate
reliably with all servers connected and provides gentle, unattended shutdown
should an extended power outage occur. |
|
| Protection |
| Designed and manufactured under ISO9001 / ISO14001
certification |
APC's solution complies with ISO 9001 Quality standards,
and ISO 14001 Environmental standards. |
