SLC CUBE3+ PS
Salicru’s SLC CUBE3+ PS series is a range of high-performance UPSs with on-line double-conversion (VFI) technology. The main distinguishing feature of the SLC CUBE3+ PS series of UPSs is the energy storage system (ESS), which allows the device to reduce the loads’ consumption peaks (a process known as “peak shaving”), thereby enabling users to optimise the sizing of the system.
Often, the size of an installation is determined by the highest peaks of its energy demand. However, the peak shaving function of the SLC CUBE3+ PS series provides the dual benefit of a lower contracted energy tariff and lower energy costs, without losing the capacity to supply the demands of the load. Another benefit of this function is the optimisation of distribution boards, protections, cabling, etc. And in addition to peak shaving, the SLC CUBE3+ PS series offers all the features of a high-performance UPS.
In terms of input supply, of particular interest is the unity input power factor (PF=1) and extremely low distortion rate (the THDi is even lower than 1.5%), which help to improve the quality of the electricity grid. Additionally, it is a UPS with bi-directional topology (four-quadrant converter), which makes it possible to inject energy upstream (negative power) when the loads are being supplied by the system and the grid is available. In terms of output features, of particular note is the low level of voltage harmonic distortion (THDv can reach levels of less than 0.5%), adapted to any type of load (resistive, inductive, capacitive, non-linear, etc.).
Moreover, the high levels of performance enable significant energy savings and reduce climate control needs.
Supplying loads with occasional high demand
High electrical performance, coupled with great adaptability (optional extras, growth, communication, etc.), make the SLC CUBE3+ PS series the best option regarding protection and security for a wide variety of environments. Plus, the series offers the added value of lower energy costs and the elimination of consumption peaks absorbed by the grid. Peak shaving can be used to increase the capacity of any existing installation that may be experiencing increased demand from the load, without having to resize the system (e.g. contracted power too low, generators, industrial machinery, etc.).
The series’ four-quadrant converter topology makes it possible to reabsorb regenerative energy of all kinds (e.g. from industrial machinery braking, lifts descending, solar inverters, etc.). This bi-directionality can be combined with the peak shaving function.
Peak shaving allows an installation’s contracted power to be adjusted, thereby lowering the risk of being penalised as a result of peaks in demand. This feature, along with the balanced current consumption, helps to prevent unnecessary oversizing. Furthermore, the PF=1 and low input current distortion eliminate the consumption of reactive energy and harmonics in the grid.
The system’s four-quadrant converter topology makes it possible to reabsorb regenerative energy of all kinds, whether occasional (e.g. kinetic or rotational energy from industrial machinery, lifts, etc.) or permanent (e.g. using the UPS as a voltage stabiliser for solar inverters injecting into the grid).
Progressive rectifier start-up based on a pre-set time when the device is in battery mode and the mains are being restored. This function enables gradual absorption of the mains power, from 0% up to 100%; in turn, this helps to ensure that the generators or installations are functioning correctly.
