PowerStream DC UPS
PowerStream DC UPS systems are designed to provide reliable, uninterrupted backup power for critical DC-powered equipment during power outages or voltage drops. These systems help maintain continuous operation long enough for generators to start, processes to stabilize, or equipment to be safely shut down. DC UPS solutions are commonly used in industrial automation, control panels, networking, and communication systems where uptime is essential.
The PowerStream PST-SP Series combines a DC power supply with an integrated battery charger and automatic battery backup switch in a compact DIN rail–mountable design. These units feature universal input voltage compatibility, supporting 85–260 VAC, 47–63 Hz, or 120–340 VDC input. Available in 12 V and 24 V output models, they are compatible with SLA, VRLA, gel cell, and AGM lead-acid batteries. Upon power failure, the system switches instantly to battery power with zero crossover time, ensuring uninterrupted DC output.
PowerStream DC UPS systems are optimized for applications with infrequent power outages, using a controlled charging profile to maintain battery health over long service life. In addition to UPS functionality, these units can also operate as high-voltage DC/DC converters with battery backup. Their compact footprint and flexible input options make them well-suited for space-constrained control panels and systems where DC loads are the primary concern.
FAQs
Q: What is a DC UPS used for?
A DC UPS provides backup power to DC-powered equipment when normal power is lost or drops below acceptable levels, helping maintain operation or allow for controlled shutdown.
Q: What batteries are compatible with PowerStream DC UPS systems?
PowerStream DC UPS units are compatible with 12 V or 24 V SLA, VRLA, gel cell, and AGM lead-acid batteries.
Q: How quickly does a DC UPS switch to battery power?
PowerStream DC UPS systems switch to battery power instantly with zero crossover time, ensuring uninterrupted operation of connected equipment.
Q: Can PowerStream DC UPS systems operate without a battery?
Yes. These units can function as standard DIN rail–mount DC power supplies even without a connected battery.
Q: When should a DC UPS be used instead of an AC UPS?
A DC UPS is typically preferred when most critical equipment operates on DC power and control panel space is limited. AC UPS systems are better suited when multiple AC devices require backup power.
