This graph is designed to aid in
sizing the UPS system based on
load and runtime and is suitable for
small loads only (i.e. 50VA to
1kVA). The horizontal axis is the
percent load of a UPS system and
the vertical axis is the runtime that
the UPS’s internal batteries will
provide. For runtimes exceeding
chart scale, please contact our
factory.

Example: 30 minutes of back-up time are required to power a 200VA load.
Using the chart, find the back-up time required (i.e. 30 MIN) and move along the horizontal axis until you are placed
between the slanted lines. At this point, follow down the vertical lines to identify the UPS Load Level % (i.e. 30%). Divide
the load (i.e. 200VA) by the UPS Load Level % to identify the size of UPS required. Once calculated, round-up the
calculated number to the nearest UPS rating (i.e. 200 / 0.3 = 667). The minimum VA requirement is 667VA, so you roundup to an 800VA UPS system (GES-801L). The GES-801L will supply a minimum of 30 minutes to a 200VA load.

DESCRIPTION: This dual conversion UPS system converts the incoming AC supply to DC. The DC power is used to
charge the batteries and supply the inverter. The inverter then inverts the DC power into AC power that, in turn, is
supplied to the load. This dual conversion isolates the line from AC supply and allows for wide input power variations on
both frequency and voltage. Systems in single phase output configurations range from 700VA to 20kVA.
APPLICATIONS: Among other applications, the N and TN11 Series can be applied to LAN file servers, personal
computers, networks and workstations, Automatic Teller Machines, telecommunications, laboratory and medical
equipment, test equipment, POS equipment, robotics, PLC’s, security and emergency systems and military & government
applications.

power off control, an isolation transformer and maintenance bypass switches are standard on the TN11 and TN31 Series.
COMPLETE PROTECTION: The N and TN11 Series UPS’s are designed with comprehensive Spike, Transient and
Surge protection, which prevents destructive hardware damage and extends system life. The high end EMI/RFI filtering
design prevents electrical Common and Normal Mode noise from affecting computer operation, data or files, including
when the UPS is in Bypass Mode.
OPERATING VOLTAGES AND FREQUENCIES: The N and TN11 Series UPS’s are designed to function at wide voltage
and frequency variations. This wide input range makes the systems ideal for generator and problematic area applications.

SELF-DIAGNOSIS AND INFORMATION INDICATORS: Each N and TN11 Series UPS is equipped with a
microprocessor that performs a self-diagnosis once a month to ensure continuous runtime. The microprocessor is able to
identify failures, display the failure on the LCD display and send audio and visual alarms (off site monitoring).
COLD START: This feature allows the N and TN11 Series UPS’s to be powered up when the utility is not present.
AUTO RESTART: This user selectable feature allows the UPS to restart automatically when utility becomes available,
provided it has been shutdown due to an extended blackout.
SMART POWER SOURCE MONITORING AND BATTERY MANAGEMENT: Via microprocessor-based electronics, the
N and TN11 Series UPS’s produce a strict true sine wave output regardless of the input. It also controls the on-battery
and low battery shutdown, which prevents full discharge, thereby extending the battery performance and battery life.
INTELLIGENT COMMUNICATION INTERFACE: Each N and TN11 Series UPS is equipped with a RS232 and dry
contact interface port, for which we provide various powerful management software programs. For the more complex
network environment, we support Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), AS400 and others.

This graph is designed to aid in sizing the
UPS system based on load and runtime and
is suitable for small loads only (i.e. 50VA to
1kVA). The horizontal axis is the percent
load of a UPS system and the vertical axis is
the runtime. For runtimes exceeding chart

Example: 30 minutes of back-up time are required to power a 200VA load. Using the chart, find the back-up time
required (i.e. 30 MIN) and move along the horizontal axis until you are placed between the slanted lines. At this point,
follow down the vertical lines to identify the UPS Load Level % (i.e. 30%). Divide the load (i.e. 200VA) by the UPS Load
Level % to identify the size of UPS required. Once calculated, round-up the calculated number to the nearest UPS rating
(i.e. 200 / 0.3 = 667). The minimum VA requirement is 667VA, so you round-up to a 700VA UPS system (GES-701N).
The GES-701N will supply a minimum of 30 minutes to a 200VA load.

Industrial/Commercial
“NX” Series Three ∅ In / Single or Three ∅ Out
NX31 and NX33
TRUE SINE WAVE ON-LINE UPS
Due to the increasing requirements placed by today’s users and technological advances
in present day electronics, the demand for an industrial UPS system with commercial
capabilities is required. Always On™ designed NX Series UPS systems to provide clean,
isolated, reliable and consistent power to all critical loads.
The NX Series UPS’s are dual conversion, on-line, three phase, intelligent systems for
centralized power protection and distribution. The “dual conversion” means AC utility is
converted into DC power which, in turn, charges the batteries and supplies the inverter,
which inverts the DC power back into highly regulated and isolated AC power. These
continuous three phase on-line UPS’s are available in models from 10kVA up to 250kVA.
For high power redundant applications, the NX Series UPS’s can be installed with up to eight units in parallel, achieving
N+1 redundancy. Isolated Parallel Redundant Operation (IPRO) is an optional feature of the NX Series, whereby the
systems are controlled in a true peer-to-peer configuration with redundancy in all critical elements and functions. This
advanced technology provides the greater system reliability and expansibility required for mission critical applications.
The NX Series UPS’s are also energy efficient. The models up to 40kVA are equipped with GES (Green Energy System)
to maximize savings on operating costs without compromising security. GES for IPRO configuration is a special firmware
package which allows significant reductions in energy consumption and operating cost during low load conditions.
Controls within the CPU monitor and distribute the load to maintain the maximum efficiency and reduce energy
consumption. The GES mode for IPRO is programmed to take care of load changes during the day or the degree of
redundancy required.
The NX Series UPS’s provide reliable and robust protection for mission critical installations from IT to telecommunications
and infrastructure applications such as airports, hospitals and financial companies.
Features and Benefits
Full Galvanic Isolation: Full Galvanic Isolation provides a completely isolated and referenced output. This isolation
protection provides a proven solution to problems created by induced voltages affecting the critical loads. Since the
output circuit to the load is completely isolated and no noise induced on the neutral can permeate to the loads, systems
operate in a more reliable fashion. Also, this type of protection increases the life span of equipment by eliminating noise,
which breaks down components.
Modular Design: Each major component (inverter, rectifier and static switch) on the NX Series are installed on slide-out
modules. This allows for quick repair (mean time to repair of >30 minutes) and easy field upgradeability.
High efficiency: Thanks to IGBT technology, the NX Series UPS’s provide high efficiency (up to 94.5%). This, combined
with IPRO, results in the most cost-efficient and reliable UPS solution in the industry.
Fully digital: DSP (Digital Signal Processor), flash memory and SVM strategy are the technology corner stones of the
new age of power quality and reliability.
Extremely flexible: The NX Series UPS offers tailor-made power protection to comply
with your individual installation requirements. Options include passive filter, a 6-pulse
rectifier (instead of the standard 12-pulse rectifier) for units under 80kVA and a Smart
Panel (SP). In addition, a comprehensive software suite can be added for mission
control and data protection.

Features
Extension of battery life
Batteries are a critical part of every UPS solution, acting as the power supply in the event of an AC power failure.
Batteries are sensitive products that need to be handled and monitored continuously and carefully in order to increase
their lifetime and predictability. Always On™ includes superior battery management within the entire NX Series family and
is a comprehensive management and monitoring system that prevents batteries from overcharging and deep discharging.
Load dependent runtime indication and re-calibration procedures are standard features to optimize life cycle cost and
system reliability.
Features and Benefits:
The NX Series features a ”no surprises” automatic battery test, a deep calibration test, which provides battery
performance tracking, boost charging, which enables fast recharging of batteries and a temperature compensated battery
charger, which prevents overcharging. The load dependent end of the discharge voltage gives deep discharge protection
and the “no-load” shutdown maintains your battery’s operational life under no-load conditions.
UPS Monitoring and Management via SNMP
Data Protection & Monitoring:
The primary function of Always On™’s protection software is the safeguarding of data and the Operating Systems. Using
our software reduces the risk of system crashes and/or data loss. Always On™’s software provides event handling and
computer shutdown for all major operating systems to enhance security of critical data. Multi-vendor and multi-platform
environments, as well as client-server structures, are managed.
Direct access of remote UPS and active management of single modules in multi-unit configurations are the keys to
efficient and predictable power quality management. The SNMP Client/Agent structure, direct link, or remote connection
enables a network manager or facility engineer to permanently monitor and control local or remote Always On™’s UPS
systems and the equipment and processes they protect. Snap-in modules allow easy integration into the leading Network
Management Systems.
A real-time graphical display of critical UPS parameters and environment information of multiple decentralized UPS’s, as
well as statistical data and event log files, are available on every local computer display and network management system
or on the Internet. Additionally, UPS status information changes can be sent to such varied information carriers as SMS,
network management systems, e-mail or fax.
Options
Isolated Parallel Redundant Operation (IPRO)
Highest standard for reliability:
Power reliability is business reliability. Mission critical applications require the highest availability of power. Always On™’s
unique IPRO technology sets the highest standard for power reliability, and IPRO compatible NX Series UPS’s are field
upgradable. Additional units can be added to increase the total power output of a system or to create a redundant system
with no single point of failure. Decentralized bypass, redundant control electronics and redundant batteries offer perfect
load-sharing and fault-tolerant operations.
Protection:
Short circuit, over-temperature and over-voltage protection is built in to protect the NX Series UPS against any form of
misuse. Back-feed protection, complete protection circuits and excellent overload behaviour provide outstanding user
protection and application security, all in conjunction with full galvanic isolation on the output of every UPS system used in
the parallel operation.
Features and Benefits:
Up to eight NX Series units can be connected in a redundant-parallel system (N+1 redundant). It also features a
decentralized bypass, redundant control electronics, active-active system management and fault tolerant operation, as
well as a transparent fail over procedure in case of UPS failure or for maintenance and no single point of failure.
Drip Shield
The addition of a drip shield ensures that liquids and other debris do not enter your NX Series UPS through the top
cooling vents.

phase systems for centralized frequency conversion, power protection and distribution.
The “dual conversion” means AC utility is converted into DC power which, in turn,
charges the batteries and supplies the inverter, which inverts the DC power back into
highly regulated and isolated AC power supplied at a user defined frequency (50, 60, or
400Hz). This continuous on-line Frequency Converter is available in models from
10kVA up to 250kVA. This dual conversion prevents power aberrations from affecting
the connected loads.
The NFC Series Frequency Converters provide reliable and robust protection and frequency conversion,
allowing for reliable and protected power to be available for all specific and critical loads.
Features and Benefits
Frequency Conversion: This permits the user to configure a system with any input voltage (208, 480 or 600)
and input frequency (50, 60, or 400Hz) with any output voltage (208/120, 480/277 or 600/347) and output
frequency (50, 60 or 400Hz), independent of the input configuration.
Full Galvanic Isolation: Full Galvanic Isolation provides a completely isolated and referenced output. This
isolation protection provides a proven solution to problems created by induced voltages affecting the critical
loads. Since the output circuit to the load is completely isolated and no noise induced on the neutral can
permeate to the loads, systems operate in a more reliable fashion. Also, this type of protection increases the
life span of equipment by eliminating noise, which breaks down components.
Modular Design: Each major component (inverter, rectifier and static switch) on the NFC Series Frequency
Converters are installed on slide-out modules. This allows for quick repair (mean time to repair of >30
minutes) and easy field upgradability.
High efficiency: Thanks to IGBT technology, the NFC Series Frequency Converters provide high efficiency
(up to 94.5%). This, combined with IPRO, results in the most cost-efficient and reliable UPS solution in the
industry.
Fully digital: DSP (Digital Signal Processor), flash memory and SVM strategy are the technology corner
stones of the new age of power quality and reliability.
Extremely flexible: The NFC Series Frequency Converters offer tailor-made power protection to comply with
your individual installation requirements. Options include a passive filter, a 12-pulse rectifier and a Smart
Panel (SP). In addition, a comprehensive software suite can be added for mission control and data protection.
Optional Battery Banks: Always On™ has also allowed for the option of back-up time to be added to the
system to eliminate the need of purchasing a UPS system and a frequency converter. This runtime package
will allow for UPS-like operation at a user defined frequency (50, 60, or 400Hz).

“TVSS”
POWER
PROTECTION
Products may not necessarily be as illustrated.
The Always On™ “ESE” TVSS filter is designed to protect, at the power panel, against externally and internally
produced power aberrations, massive impulses, lightning induced effects and interference associated with low frequency
harmonics and situations caused by accidents and/or failures in the electrical utility system. It is also totally compatible
with all operating loads, including high frequency power supplies and constant current loads controlled by electronic
switches.
APPLICATIONS:
Electrical Service Entrance filters protect the electronic and electrical equipment in the building by supplying power
protection at the main and sub-panel locations.
PROTECTION:
Our ESE’s offer high end protection for industrial and commercial environments and our specifically designed and tuned
circuitry provides protection against all potentially dangerous electrical aberrations. They eliminate and attenuate to safe
levels common and normal mode noise, massive surge impulses, indirect lightning strikes and their effects, interference
associated with low frequency harmonics, spikes and transients, as well as problems associated with electrical utility
failures caused by accidents, storms, etc.
Electrical and electronic equipment create their own power aberrations, which creates problems for other loads and
equipment ‘downstream’. These aberrations will travel down the power bus to the power panels, where they propagate to
other loads via other branch circuits.
By installing Always On™ ESE power panel protection devices, these problems will not occur.
Always On™ ESE Power protection offers TWO Methods of Protection
1) For all New Residential, Commercial and Industrial Construction:
The ESE protects electronic equipment in new buildings (security, environmental, networking, communications,
appliances, systems, etc.) from potentially destructive and disruptive externally generated power spikes and transients,
massive surges, indirect lightning strikes, low frequency harmonics and common and normal mode noise.
2) For all Commercial and Industrial Retrofits:
In commercial and industrial environments, the ESE offers the same features as above and protects ‘downstream’ branch
panels from externally and internally generated power aberrations such as spikes, transients, massive surges, low
frequency harmonics and common and normal mode noise.
STOP THE PROBLEMS BEFORE THEY CAN OCCUR. ELIMINATE ALL POTENTIAL PROBLEM CAUSING
AND DAMAGING POWER ABERRATIONS BY HAVING AN ALWAYS ON™ ESE FILTER INSTALLED.
FEATURES:
The ESE features self-diagnostics, LED indicators and removable fuses per phase, which eliminate DEDICATED and
costly 3 phase panel breakers.
OPTIONAL:
The ESE also features optional visual and audible alarms, form C contacts for remote monitoring, a surge counter, which
indicates the number of high energy, potentially damaging hits on a continual basis, and a flush mount container.

TTF/ILF-12015
WITH OPTIONAL BY-PASS SWITCH
The Always On™ TTF/ILF (Toroidal Isolating Line Filter) combines a low-pass series filter with a toroidal isolation transformer. The TTF/ILF
provides for total protection against all power aberrations and eliminates any troublesome constant voltages which may exist between neutral and
ground in some electrical configurations. It is totally compatible with all operating loads including high frequency switching power supplies.
Some optional features that can be added are the manual by-pass switch or an automatic bypass switch.
The manual bypass switch will transfer the load from UPS supplied power to a filtered and isolated AC utility upon user operated switching. This will
allow for removal of the UPS system without powering down or exposing your critical loads.
The automatic by-pass switch will automatically transfer the load from UPS supplied power in the event of a premature shutdown for whatever
reason without powering down your critical loads.
The TTF/ILF corrects ground fault problems and eliminates neutral voltages by re-establishing the “zero” volt ground reference point. It provides
excellent noise protection, eliminating problems caused by normal mode and common mode noise, as well as other electrical aberrations such as:
transients, spikes, surges harmonics and lightning induced voltages.
APPLICATIONS:
Computers, Laser Printers, Copiers, Point of Sale Terminals, Medical Instruments, PLC’s, Process Instruments, CAD/CAM/CIM & Robotics.

interfere with other equipment connected to the same AC source.
High frequency design: The inverter design incorporates high frequency, high efficiency Insulated Gate Bi-polar
Transistors (IGBT). A PWM wave, synchronized to the bypass input, triggers the IGBT’s, which invert the DC into AC
power required by the loads. This design decreases the number of required components, increases reliability and
performance while decreasing acoustic noise, size and weight.
Cold start function: The AURORA can be started without the utility AC supply being activated, or present at the input
terminal strip because our system is designed with current limiting circuitry, which allows startup of the AURORA on
battery DC power.
Intelligent charger: The AURORA will perform an automatic monthly recharge (boost charge) of the batteries as well as
automatically recharge (boost charge) the batteries when the battery voltage level decreases to approximately 2V/Cell. It
makes the batteries stay in good condition.
Intelligent battery test: The batteries are tested monthly automatically. When an abnormal condition (low charge rating,
or bad battery) is found the user will be informed immediately through alarms on the AURORA systems.
MTBF of cooling fans: Long cycling fans will operate at variable speeds necessary which is dependent on the load of the
inverter systems increasing the life expectancy of the fan motors.
OPTIONS
Output Circuit Breakers: Supports normally on or normally off circuit breakers.
Additional Run Times: These can be 30, 60, 90, or 120 minutes, other configurations are available.
EMBP: External Maintenance Bypass. This device allows the load power to be transferred from the inverter output to the

BOREALIS THREE ∅ EMERGENCY LIGHTING INVERTER (ELI)
BOREALIS Series Emergency Lighting AC Inverters are among the most reliable systems available for emergency
lighting and other demanding critical applications.
The BOREALIS Series Emergency Lighting AC Inverters are Dual Conversion, On-line, three-phase, intelligent systems
for centralized power protection. These continuous on-line Emergency Lighting AC Inverters are available in models from
8kW up to 48kW.
For redundant applications, the BOREALIS Series Emergency Lighting AC Inverters can be installed in parallel, achieving
isolated and redundant power protection. Isolated Parallel Redundant Operation (IPRO) is a feature of Always On™
BOREALIS Series Emergency Lighting AC Inverters, whereby the systems are controlled in a true peer-to-peer
configuration with redundancy in all critical elements and functions. This advanced technology provides greater system
reliability and expandability for mission critical applications.
The BOREALIS Series Emergency Lighting AC Inverters provide reliable and constant protection for mission critical
emergency lighting, and infrastructure applications such as airports, hospitals, and financial companies.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
These ELI’s provide full time self-diagnostics as well as two levels of audible alarms when the unit is operating in battery
mode. A manual test switch has been incorporated into the input/test breakers that make testing a simple procedure. The
internal bypass switch allows maintenance on the ELI’s to be performed without interruption of power to the load.
The communications port, in conjunction with multi-platform monitoring and control software, enables the unit to be
connected to a local or networked computer system. Detailed operating information including voltages, currents, and
alarm status is available to the monitoring system.
Full Galvanic Isolation: Provides a completely isolated and re-reference output. This isolation protection provides a
proven solution to problems created by induced voltages affecting the critical loads. Since the output circuit to the load is
completely isolated and no noise induced on the neutral can permeate to the loads, systems operate in a more reliable
fashion.
Fully digital: DSP (Digital Signal Processor), flash memory, and multi-contact strategy are the technology corner stones
of the new age of power quality and reliability.
Extremely flexible: The BOREALIS Series offers tailor-made power protection to comply with your individual installation
requirements. Options include passive filter, 12-pulse rectifier, and distribution panels.
IMBS: An internal maintenance bypass switch is standard with all BOREALIS 3 phase inverter units.
EMI suppression: An EMI filter is added to meet the international EMC limits to ensure that no noise will effect or
interfere with other equipment connected to the same AC source.
High frequency design: The three phase BOREALIS design incorporates a full bridge three-phase inverter. This design
makes the BOREALIS perform better than other Emergency Lighting AC Inverters in the market when an unbalanced load
is connected.
Cold start function: The BOREALIS can be started without the utility AC supply being activated, or present at the input
terminal strip because our system is designed with current limiting circuitry, which allows Startup of the BOREALIS on
battery DC power.
Intelligent charger: The BOREALIS will perform an automatic monthly recharge (boost charge) of the batteries as well as
automatically recharge (boost charge) the batteries when the battery voltage level decreases to approximately 2V/Cell. It
makes the batteries stay in good condition.
Intelligent battery test: The batteries are tested monthly automatically. When an abnormal condition (low charge rating,
or bad battery) is found the user will be informed immediately through alarms on the BOREALIS systems.
MTBF of cooling fans: Long cycling fans will operate at variable speeds necessary which is dependent on the load of the
inverter systems increasing the life expectancy of the fan motors.
SNMP: SNMP adapter to remotely control and monitor the unit via a network or the Internet.
