Eaton 5130 Series UPS

Eaton’s New 5130 Series of battery backup is ideal for protecting small business equipment ranging from 1,000 to 3,000 VA. The rack/tower lineup consists of five different 120V models. All five models protect against what Eaton considers to be the five most common power anomalies: failures, surges, sags, under-voltage, and over-voltage. Regardless of power rating, all of the 5130s house their batteries internally and fit within a 2U form factor. They all include power management software for control and monitoring, and they’re all covered by a three-year warranty and $150,000 load protection guarantee.

A unit like Eaton’s 5130 enables compelling price advantages over offline backup, while enhancing the power protection of standby UPS systems. The 5130s are all line-interactive devices—an important step above the standby solutions common on the desktop. A line interactive UPS is able to respond to continuous brownouts and surges without consuming battery power thanks to a variable voltage transformer.

The Eaton Energy Saver System for highest-efficiency power protection. With 99 percent efficiency, your UPS can pay for itself—many times over—by dramatically reducing facility power and cooling costs.

Utility costs now account for 20 to 30 percent of data center operating costs. For many IT organizations, energy costs represent the largest single component of total cost of ownership—and the most stifling influence on IT expansion. According to IDC, for every dollar spent on new IT hardware, an additional 50 cents is spent on power and cooling, more than double the ratio of five years ago. The cost of electricity is already outpacing the cost of hardware. $1 million worth of servers purchased in 2009 will consume $1.2 million in electricity over a three-year operating life—a figure that will only increase with rising utility rates*.

UPSs have been getting steadily more efficient

Eaton is changing the game with the revolutionary Energy Saver System. UPSs equipped with this technology deliver 99 percent efficiency or better without sacrificing reliability.

With this approach, the UPS operates at extremely high efficiency unless utility power conditions force the UPS to work harder to maintain clean power to the load. The intelligent power core continuously monitors incoming power conditions and balances the need for efficiency with the need for premium protection, to match the conditions of the moment.

Key advantages of the Energy Saver System

Until recently, specifying engineers had to choose a UPS based on mutually exclusive merits. One type of UPS offered highest efficiency but without comprehensive power protection. Another offered highest protection, but at lower efficiency. Energy Saver System delivers it all in a single UPS:

• Premium power quality
• Highest efficiency across all load ranges
• User-configurable modes for maximum control
• Advancement of corporate sustainability initiatives

Consistent power quality ensures protection for IT systems

The last three decades have brought notable improvements in the energy efficiency of UPSs, but a UPS even a few years old might not be operating as efficiently as it could. For data centers looking to expand or upgrade their power protection and backup power, Energy Saver System from Eaton provides a win-win proposition.

Eaton’s industry-leading Pow-R-Command™ lighting control systems turn off the lights when a space is empty, and reduce artificial lighting when natural light is strong. These systems typically reduce lighting energy consumption from 10 to 30 percent.

Eaton Corporation now offers multiple lighting and load control solutions for specific applications.

Load Control for Large Facilities

The Pow-R-Command™ 1000 system is ideal for large, medium and small building applications. The Pow-R-Command panelboard mounts the same as traditional panelboards. Power and branch wiring is also the same. It can be applied to distribution systems rated 1-phase 3-wire and 3-phase 4-wire 120, 120/240, 208Y/120 and 480Y/277V AC.

Load Control Integration with Energy Management Systems

The Pow-R-Command 750 Patch Panel offers field push-button programming to easily map Smart Breakers™ to specific zones. Electronic interface boards are available for specific Energy Management Systems. Consult factory for details.

Load Control for Small and Medium Sized Commercial Buildings

By incorporating low-end controls with the new Cutler-Hammer Smart Breaker™, Eaton Corporation has made it easy for small commercial facilities to take advantage of cost effective energy management solutions that were once only justified for larger buildings.

Energy Conservation (U.S. Green Building Council)

Pow-R-Command Family of Products can help you optimize energy performance, controllability of lighting systems, and innovation in design credits as well as may help in gaining points towards LEED certification.
