Our innovative technologies help customers manage electrical, hydraulic and mechanical power more reliably, efficiently, safely and sustainably.

Intelligent Power Manager (IPM) software provides the tools needed to monitor and manage power devices in your physical or virtual environment. This innovative software solution ensures system uptime and data integrity by allowing you to remotely monitor, manage and control UPSs and other devices on your network. IPM provides a solution that is easy to use and maintains business continuity.

An uninterruptable power supply (UPS) protects IT equipment and other electrical loads from problems that can affect the public electricity supply. It performs the following three basic functions:

• Prevents hardware damage typically caused by surges and spikes. Many UPS models continually condition incoming power as well.
• Prevents data loss and corruption. Without a UPS, data stored on devices that are subjected to a hard system shutdown may become corrupted or even lost completely. In conjunction with power management software, a UPS can facilitate a graceful system shutdown.
• Provides availability for networks and other applications while preventing downtime. UPSs can also be paired with generators in order to give the generators sufficient time to power up in the event of a power cut.

typically caused by lightning strike or fault with the power company’s equipment. Without a UPS, this will cause a hard shutdown, putting data at risk.

Short-term voltage reduction, often caused by start-up of nearby large loads. Power sags can cause equipment crashes and hardware damage.

• Short-term high voltage, usually caused by lightning strike nearby.
• Spikes almost always lead to data loss and/or hardware damage.

Reduced supply voltage lasting from minutes to days. Typically occurs when supply network is overloaded. Can lead to computers behaving unpredictably.

Increased supply voltage lasting from minutes to days. Often triggered by rapid reductions in power demands, overvoltage can damage hardware.

“Interference”, typically from radio transmitters, welding equipment etc. Noise can cause hard-to-find intermittent problems.

Changes in supply frequency, usually only found on supplies from generators.

Instantaneous undervoltage, typically lasting a few nanoseconds.

Disortion of the normal smooth supply waveform. Can be caused by variable spreed drivers and even photocopiers. Can cause communication errors, overheating and hardware damage.
