Three-Phase On-Line Power Protection for Data Centers, Facilities, and High Availability Applications

APC Silcon

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.
