WHAT IS A UPS?

A UPS is an electronic controlled system that provides power from a stored energy source, usually batteries, for a limited period of time during a power failure.

WHY ARE UPS’s USED?

Power failures and related problems such as power glitches and surges cause about 80% of computer failures. An unexpected power failure can cause serious problems. Industrial and mining processes need back-up power for critical load applications. A power failure which occurs at such companies often disrupts their complex production process which in turn causes a significant loss of income and even life threatening situations.

Dynamic (Rotary) UPS - Hitzinger:

Combined with a diesel engine, switch gear, filter choke and “high-tech” control, the end result is the most reliable form of uninterrupted power source (rotary UPS) available.

Penbro rotary UPS systems are located in several countries of Southern Africa such as Tanzania and Melawi. Each system was negotiated from tender stage to its commissioning by our specialist team.

For projects of this magnitude, we are proud to offer pre-consultancy services, installation and commissioning, and a 24-hour standby service for an annual maintenance contract. Calculated life cycle costing analysis proves that these UPS systems are the most economical solution to reliable power.

Generators:

In hospitals, airports and in many other areas where people’s lives are at stake and safety is of the utmost importance, it is necessary that an uninterrupted power source be installed. The minimum requirement for South Africa is an AC power generator with a capacity sufficient to maintain all human life support systems present in a hospital.

The most economical and robust form of power supply is a Genset.
