Medium voltage UPS with ZISC architecture, 2.25-22.5 MW at 10-24 kV. Greater than 98% efficiency with Li-ion or VRLA storage and MTTR under 15 minutes.
The ABB PCS120 MV UPS is a medium-voltage uninterruptible power supply, providing battery-backed protection and power quality conditioning directly at the medium-voltage level. This eliminates step-down losses and reduces cabling costs in large industrial sites and utility substations.
Typical applications include large data center campuses, semiconductor fabs, utility substations, and heavy process industries where loads are measured in tens of megawatts.
Connecting directly at MV eliminates large and lossy step-down transformers, simplifying the electrical one-line and reducing footprint and capital cost.
Rated for multi-megawatt loads, a single MV UPS can protect an entire campus or process unit, replacing dozens of smaller LV systems with one consolidated solution.
State-of-the-art power electronics deliver industry-leading efficiency at the MV level, translating to substantial OPEX savings on large sites.
Beyond backup, the system also corrects voltage disturbances, supporting a cleaner, more stable MV network for all downstream loads.
