Frequently Asked Questions
Is a 20kVA UPS suitable for small to medium-sized server rooms and network closets?
Yes, the SU20KX is ideal for smaller critical environments such as branch offices, remote data centres, and mid-sized server rooms where reliable online protection is needed without requiring enterprise-scale capacity.
What does 1+1 parallel operation mean for our backup strategy?
1+1 parallel operation allows two SU20KX units to operate together, either for capacity expansion up to 40kVA or for redundancy where one UPS can be serviced while the other maintains full protection.
Can this UPS handle critical network and telecom equipment?
Yes, the pure sine wave output with zero transfer time protects sensitive networking, telephony, and small server equipment from power anomalies, ensuring uninterrupted service to connected devices.
How does the true on-line architecture protect equipment compared to other UPS types?
True online means the UPS continuously conditions power through double-conversion, isolating connected equipment from grid noise, surges, and sags. This provides superior protection compared to standby or line-interactive designs.
Is this UPS suitable for medical, financial, or government office environments?
Yes, the SU20KX's online architecture, reliable sine wave output, and redundancy capability make it appropriate for security-sensitive environments requiring certified power protection.
What is the relationship between 20kVA and 16kW ratings?
20kVA is the total apparent power capacity, while 16kW is the real power (kW) available to loads with typical power factors. This accounts for reactive loads common in office and network equipment.
