But There Are Real Solutions
You Need Protection From All Power Problems
An outage is just the problem you can see. There are many other more frequent power fluctuations—surges, spikes, sags—
that you don’t see. These are the conditions that cause the “unexplained” lock-ups and other potentially damaging results.
“Out-Of-The-Box” Can Put You Out Of Business
Buying a simple off-line UPS down at the computer store may be a good solution for your home PC, but it just doesn’t make
sense when your business and productivity are on the line. Protecting critical network and computing systems requires the
expertise of someone who understands all the risks you face from poor power quality.
Centralized Vs. Distributed UPS Protection
Liebert has the breadth of products that allows you to implement either a centralized or a one-on-one distributed power
protection strategy depending on your requirements. Whatever configuration you choose, you can count on Liebert to
make it the best it can be. Benefits, such as increased system security, more efficient maintenance and improved reliability,
may make a centralized strategy a better choice for larger operations.
Proper Power Depends On Proper Distribution
In network applications, there may be hundreds of different loads with various voltage requirements, a mix of AC and DC
power, plus any number of other electrical specifications. This calls for a distribution system that is designed to maintain the
highest levels of reliability and quality between the source of conditioned power and the protected equipment.
Power Conditioning And Surge Protection Throughout The Facility
Power conditioning and surge suppression systems are key to maintaining power quality in critical facilities. Raw utility
power is often far too “dirty” for sensitive systems, resulting in lost or garbled data, unexpected software glitches or
shutdowns, even hardware damage. The IEEE recommended practice is to install transient voltage surge suppression (TVSS)
protection on every electrical conductor that penetrates a facility shell, including power lines, telephone and other
communications links.
Maximum Reliability Demands Dual Power Sources
If your needs require the highest level of system availability, Liebert has the knowledge and products to implement a dual-
power strategy throughout your enterprise. UPS, transfer switching, power distribution and other equipment are all
brought together to create the ultimate in reliability.
