May 23, 2007—MGE Office Protection Systems, a world leader in providing end-to-end power protection systems for today’s power hungry computing, IT and industrial applications, has introduced the Pulsar MX Frame, which accommodates MGE’s new Pulsar MX 5000 RT power and battery modules, giving users a true modular and scalable power protection solution, according to the company.
As small and mid-size companies grow, so do their power requirements to protect additional servers, blades and telecommunication systems. To meet this need, MGE Office Protection Systems has designed the Pulsar MX 5000 RT power and battery modules and Pulsar MX Frame that is a fully scalable solution that can grow as customer’s power needs increase. Designed to deliver business continuity 7X24, the Pulsar MX uses a modular, redundant architecture that can scale power and runtime as demand increases or when higher levels of availability are required – all in a compact and affordable system.
When the Pulsar MX on-line double-conversion power modules are connected in parallel within the new Pulsar MX Frame, the power can be readily scaled from 5 kVA to 10, 15 (with redundancy) or 20 kVA power levels—without disrupting connected equipment—all within the Pulsar MX’s compact 16U (28 inch) frame.
For the first time, says MGE, the same power and battery sub-modules can be used for both the standalone UPS and the modular chassis, which significantly reduces the entry cost to scalability. Through this approach, users can decide to acquire a cost-competitive Pulsar MX 5000 RT, and then migrate to a fully scalable, redundant solution using the Pulsar MX Frame while still using the original power and battery sub-modules of the original 5 kVA standalone UPS.
