Schneider Electric Galaxy VX UPS

Schneider Electric has introduced Galaxy VX — an efficient, easy-to-deploy, compact, three-phase uninterruptible power supply (UPS) with flexible operating modes for large facilities, data centres and business-critical applications.

The pay-as-you-grow solution will support enterprises in their move to hyperscale data centres and enable them to reap the greatest value in their IT deployments. The device fully integrates with Schneider Electric energy management solutions.

Flexible operating modes include: Double Conversion Mode, which reduces switching losses and increases reliability while reducing failure rate; Eco Mode, which delivers up to 99% efficiency; and ECOnversion Mode, a hybrid between Eco and Double Conversion that improves efficiency.

The product offers continuous operation up to 40°C ambient without de-rating. It is compatible with traditional lead acid, flywheel, NiCd and Li-ion batteries.
