Frequently Asked Questions
What is N+1 redundancy in a UPS system?
N+1 redundancy means the Galaxy VS 40kW includes one additional power module beyond what's needed for full capacity. If one module fails, the remaining module continues protecting your systems without interruption, ensuring zero downtime for critical operations.
Can I expand runtime with external batteries?
Yes, the Galaxy VS 40kW supports external battery modules, allowing you to scale runtime based on your facility's requirements. This modular approach provides flexibility and cost-effective capacity expansion as your power protection needs grow.
Is the Galaxy VS 40kW suitable for data center environments?
Absolutely. The three-phase 480V configuration, N+1 redundancy, and advanced monitoring make this UPS ideal for data centers requiring enterprise-grade power protection with minimal total cost of ownership.
What does the 5x8 startup service include?
The 5x8 startup service provides installation and commissioning support during standard business hours (5 days per week, 8 hours per day), ensuring your Galaxy VS 40kW is properly configured and operational.
