- Total solutions

 

 

 

This total solution promises to change the way you look at the power protection of computer room. Advances in enterprise computing and storage technologies are demanding a change in enterprise power protection technology. Today¡¯s computer room houses mission critical applications and databases running on WIN NT / LINUX / Unix-based machines, Web server, and dozens to hundreds of consolidated file and print servers. The reliability and availability of these machines depends on technological advances such as RAID storage, server mirroring, server clustering, and fail-over recovery. Despite these advances in storage and processing availability, the mid-sized power protection industry has been populated with only legacy UPS-centralized box-type UPS that create multiple single points of failure.

Frontier Power Dual Inverter Reliability by design

Frontier Power Dual Inverter has set the standard for top-quality UPS design for more than 18 years. The Frontier Power Dual Inverter is the culmination of that legacy. By engineering the Frontier Power Dual Inverter to significantly reduce components, there are simply fewer parts to maintain or fail. We¡¯ve done this by eliminating high-failure items, such as ribbon cables, replacing analog circuits with digital ones and by building in redundancy on potential single-points-of-failure. And in real-life dramas around the world, The Frontier Power Dual Inverter has been unmatched in delivering top performance when the moment was at hand.

 

Frontier Power Dual Inverter Hot Sync¢ç the Apex of Availability

When the proven reliability of the advanced design of the Frontier Power Dual Inverter is further augmented by the ground breaking Frontier Hot Sync technology, a new pinnacle of system availability is reached. Frontier Hot Sync technology provides paralleling for N+1 modules for redundancy and/or capacity. Depend on safety system-level.

When analyzing the traditional, empirical ways of determining system availability through Mean Time between Failure (MTTR) with Frontier Hot Sync technology, Frontier once again sets a new standard of reliability.

 

The Frontier Power Dual Inverter Hot Sync¢ç Solution

The next generation of reliability in power solutions is Frontier Hot Sync technology. Its unique digital design eliminates the system-level single point-of-failure inherent in traditional parallel UPS system; the many vendors have struggled to overcome. Frontier Power Dual Inverter Hot Sync technology, available only from Frontier Power, enables two (or more) UPS modules to work in parallel (in complete synchronization) with only the power wires connecting them. No inter-module communications are required to keep the modules on-line. This wireless design means that while the modules are in sync, they are functioning independently of each other. Consequently there is no system-level single-point-of failure.

The development of Frontier Power Dual Inverter Hot Sync technology is the culmination of Frontier¡¯s expertise, the availability of high-speed digital processors, the development of component technology, and the creation of enabling software. With all of the technological elements falling neatly into place, Frontier Power Dual Inverter Hot Sync technology is ushering in a new era in critical system reliability.

This unique technology enables both parallel for redundancy and parallel for capacity/redundancy configurations. The flexibility and reliability of Frontier Hot Sync technology is unmatched.

 

Frontier Power Dual Inverter Hot Sync Benefits

¢º Elimination of system-level single-point-of-failure means maximum availability

¢º Automatic load transfer and selective tripping means maximum reliability

¢º Advanced IGBT/PWM C.V.C.F technology means maximum performance

 

Automatic Load Transfer

In an optimum hot stand by redundant parallel configuration, the UPS modules must safety and reliability. When the critical load is the modules, there is no transfer time in shifting the load from one module to the other should a module fail. This critical element of paralleling is at the core of the dramatically enhanced reliability of hot stand by systems.

 

In a traditional UPS configuration, load sharing required copper wire of fiber optics-based communications between the modules, which in turn created a single point-of-failure. If any part of the communication link failed, so did the system. Frontier Hot Sync technology eliminates the necessity for inter-module communications (Hot stand by), providing true wireless paralleling for the first time, thereby eliminating the system-level single-point-of-failure.

 

 

 

The load transfer control algorithms maintain synchronization and load balance by static (SCR) switch constantly making minute adjustments to variations in the output power requirements. The modules conform to demand and do not fight each other for the load. Each module monitors its own output display and makes minute output power corrections thousands of times per second. In this manner, each module need only look at its own output power to remain phase-locked to the critical bus.

 

This approach is unique to Frontier Power Dual Inverter, and is available only with patented Frontier 1000/2000 series UPS (Normally Load transfer 10 KVA). Such precise load-share control is only possible because the Frontier modules deploy a digital signal processing technique known as direct digital synthesis to control inverter frequency. This hot stand by paralleling technique is so stable that one module can even operate in parallel with and actually share load with, utility power. No other UPS manufacturer has a parallel redundant UPS system with this capability.

 

Critical loads protected by a Frontier Power solution using Frontier Power Dual Inverter Hot Sync technology have a higher percentage of availability because automatic load transfer never leaves critical systems vulnerable.

Selective Transfer

In addition to enabling precise load-transfer, Frontier Power Dual Inverter Hot Sync technology enables a module to employ a unique selective main and reserve system approach. That is, each module need only look at itself to see if it has failed. By not relying on communication links between the modules, there are no time lapses between the time a failure occurs and the time the module is removed from the critical bus. This is an absolute necessity for delivering the highest level of reliability.

 

 

Since each module in a Frontier Power Dual Inverter Hot Sync system monitors itself for a failure, a faulty module will automatically isolate itself from the critical bus. This approach is unique to Frontier Power and is available only with the patented Frontier Power Dual Inverter series UPS. In contrast, a faulty module in a conventional hot-sync parallel redundant system is identified by the system bypass. Though most module failures are benign, a failed inverter IGBT may appear as a fault on the critical bus. For this type of failure, it is essential that the failure be quickly identified and the failed module be removed from the critical bus.

With Frontier Power Dual Inverter Hot Sync wireless selective tripping, there are no inter-module communications required to perform this function, eliminating the single-point-of-failure found in conventional hot sync parallel redundant systems.

 

Advanced IGBT/PWM C.V.C.F technology

When Frontier introduced the Frontier Power Dual Inverter series of UPS, it revolutionized the industry by being the first company to integrate Isolated Gate Bi-Polar Transistors (IGBT) into a UPS solution, providing more pristine output power and thereby increasing system availability. Frontier has taken this to the next level, once again leading the industry by improving reliability through innovative technology. Frontier Power Dual Inverter Hot Sync direct digital synthesis utilizes an inverter with rapid-fire IGBT switching, (up to 4500 Hz) further enhancing system reliability with pulse-width modulation performance and C.V.C.F (Constant Voltage Constant Frequency). This advanced enabling technology is fundamental to Frontier Power Dual Inverter Hot Sync technology and is what separates Frontier from other vendors.

 

Parallel for Redundancy

Frontier Power Dual Inverter Hot Sync – Redundant: A parallel redundant UPS solution increases reliability and maximizes availability. If you have any type of failure in any module, the critical load is still protected. Frontier Power Dual Inverter Hot Sync – Redundant goes further by adding redundant by-pass sources, eliminating critical communication wires, and utilizing single unit inputs (Galvanic Isolation transformer) the modules are only tied together at their outputs. Because the modules monitor themselves for failure, a Frontier Power Dual Inverter Hot Sync – Redundant system ensures the critical bus remains supported on conditioned power even if one of the modules fails.

 

A common bypass input source allows the modules in a Frontier Power Dual Inverter Hot Sync – Redundant system to synchronize their output even when one or both of the parallel cabinet MOBs are open for maintenance. This configuration allows the Frontier Power Dual Inverter Hot Sync Redundant system to be fully maintained, without the need for another around maintenance bypass. In fact, if a wrap around maintenance bypass is added to the system, it will actually reduce system level reliability. The common bypass input enables a high level of maintenance accessibility while the critical load remains on conditioned and protected power. The elimination of the need for and external maintenance bypass also results in a lower total system cost.

 

 

 

 

Hot sync Redundant Parallel for Capacity & Redundancy

Frontier Power Dual Inverter Hot Sync – Capacity: The growth of banking data centers, telecommunication switching centers, and other important, centralized computing operations has created a unique challenge for UPS. With these mission-critical systems comes the need for an extremely large power solution, one in which a single module can¡¯t meet the capacity required for the entire system. Frontier Power Dual Inverter Hot Sync – Capacity ensures these critical systems are always protected.

 

Frontier Hot Sync – Capacity allows up to mail and reserve modules to operate in parallel for redundancy and/or capacity.

 

The Frontier Power Dual Inverter Hot Sync – Capacity configuration has all of the technology benefits of Frontier Power Dual Inverter Hot Sync – Redundant, including selective tripping, automatic load transfer (reserve system) and synchronization, but adds capacity beyond a single module. Frontier Power Dual Inverter Hot Sync – Capacity systems have the built-in intelligence that enables them to automatically recognize the customer¡¯s need for capacity and/or redundancy, allowing for N+1, N+2(It is 12kva capacity over model are beside two model but battery cabinet is 1 cabinet use ), or N+3 redundancy, depending on the load. This advanced capability is necessary to maximize availability for large load applications in data centers, server farms, ISPs, IDC and facilities.

 

With CROSS T.E.C¡¯s patented Frontier Power Dual Inverter Hot Sync technology you won¡¯t have to spend your time managing your fear of downtime because you¡¯ll have the confidence to know that your business and customers are supported 24 hours a day, seven day a week, 365 days a year.
