- Power Generator

Supports data center and all equipment within at maximum load for 48 hours without refueling Generator backup can be extended beyond 48 hour limits in the unlikely event of an extended power outage with refueling while engine is running Uninterrupted transfer of power - with use of high capacity UPS and Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) transfer of power is completely automatic and almost transparent in the event of an outage.


How it works:

High Capacity UPS regularly charges internal battery to sustain enough energy to power servers in any emergency. When an outage occurs, the power is automatically transferred to UPS battery transparent to servers. The power generator is automatically started and ATC then transfers all data center power to generator source. The entire process is completely transparent to servers.
Regularly scheduled maintenance with certified power generator contractors. Maintenance includes full load tests to simulate actual power outage in order to detect and fix any potential problems that may surface.
