Frequently Asked Questions
What is backfeed protection on a UPS system?
Backfeed protection prevents reverse power flow from the UPS battery back into the utility grid during outages or maintenance. This safety feature protects utility workers and equipment, making it essential for data center and industrial installations.
Why choose a three-phase UPS for data centers?
Three-phase UPS systems like the Galaxy VM 160 kVA provide superior power distribution, load balancing, and efficiency for large-scale facilities. They support higher power demands and reduce per-phase stress compared to single-phase alternatives.
How does double-conversion online topology improve power quality?
Double-conversion technology continuously converts incoming AC power to DC, then back to AC, ensuring clean, regulated output free from utility fluctuations, harmonics, and voltage variations—critical for protecting sensitive IT infrastructure.
Is the Galaxy VM 160 kVA UPS scalable?
Yes, the Galaxy VM range is designed for scalability. Multiple units can be configured in parallel to increase capacity and redundancy, making it ideal for growing data centers and mission-critical environments.
