Inrush Current Control Technology Boosts Power Converter Reliability

Special Feature
AC output to the load. Its use of Lithium
polymer batteries permits the lowest profile
and lowest weight solution in its power
class. It is designed and manufactured in
SynQor’s USA facilities to comply with
a wide range of military standards. Options
include a DC output and the ability
to also draw power from a military standard
28VDC input.
Long Life Support
Falcon Electric, meanwhile, has
added Lithium-ion batteries as an option
to its 1500 VA model of its SSG Series
Industrial Grade UPS Plus. Lithium-ion
chemistry offers several advantages over

valve regulated lead-acid (VRLA) batteries
including less weight, longer runtimes
and higher energy density. The SSG Series
is a true double-conversion on-line
sinewave regenerative UPS. This robust
and rugged solution provides military,
aerospace and industrial applications
with a high level of power protection that
tolerates many of the elements found in
these harsh environments. Due to its
rugged design, the U.L. listed SSG Series
is capable of withstanding elevated temperatures
of up to 131°F (55°C). The SSG
Series, which is available in 1500 VA, 2200
VA and 3000 VA configurations, can be
placed in an equipment rack or installed

as a stand-alone tower in close proximity
to the critical load.
This eliminates the need to shield the
UPS from the environment. Moreover, the
SSG’s 10-year rated VRLA batteries when
operated in a typical environment of 21°
to 23°C, double the average UPS battery
life. When operated in harsher temperature
environments at 50°C, the projected
battery life is four years—quadrupling the
battery operating life over typical UPSs.
The SSG Series is a true regenerative online
UPS that is designed to give users the
highest level of protection against a wide
spectrum of power problems. It provides
