Altech Corporation, a leader in industrial automation solutions, announces its C-TEC Series of Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS). The C-TEC line redefines backup power safety and robustness for industrial, automation and IT applications by using high-performance, long-life ultracapacitors as its energy storage medium, eliminating the reliability and maintenance headaches associated with traditional battery-based systems.
The advanced ultracapacitor technology is housed directly within the C-TEC units to provide immediate, controlled backup power in the event of a DC supply interruption. Unlike lead-acid batteries, the ultracapacitors are virtually maintenance-free, offering a long service life and high cycle stability and reducing the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) for critical infrastructure. This robustness ensures systems remain operational during short-term power fluctuations or outages, supporting safe shutdown procedures.
Designed for the demands of modern industrial control systems, the C-TEC Series features advanced microcontroller-supported charging and discharging management, ensuring maximum operational lifespan and reliable performance.
Key features include:
-Fast charging: Active charging current control enables the quick replenishment of energy, ensuring readiness for subsequent power events.
-IPC management: Time- and output current-triggered switch-off functions facilitate communication with industrial PCs (IPC) and control units for safe system shutdowns.
-Versatility: The series includes DC models for 12V, 24V and 48V systems, as well as AC models (AC C-TEC), offering wide-ranging compatibility and energy options up to 27.6 kJ.
-Customizability: A USB interface provides users with numerous options for customized settings and remote monitoring of operating and charging status.
