APC by Schneider Electric Galaxy vs UPS 40KW 400V for External Batteries - GVSUPS40KMHS

APC by Schneider Electric GVSUPS40KMHS Double-Conversion UPS

Overview

The APC by Schneider Electric GVSUPS40KMHS is a 40kVA, 400V double-conversion (online) UPS designed to deliver clean, stable, and uninterrupted power to critical IT infrastructure and sensitive equipment. This unit solves the problem of power quality issues such as sags, surges, and frequency variations by providing a perfectly regulated sine wave output, essential for applications requiring high availability and data integrity. Its 400V output is suited for specific enterprise deployments and industrial control systems where this voltage is standard. The ECO mode feature allows for energy savings by bypassing the voltage regulation when power quality is stable, reducing heat and energy consumption. This model is specifically configured for external battery cabinets, allowing for scalable runtime based on your specific needs.

Compatibility

This UPS is designed to integrate with APC's Galaxy VS external battery systems. It is compatible with 400V, 3-phase power distribution systems. Specific compatibility extends to Schneider Electric's EcoStruxure IT management platform for remote monitoring and control, enabling proactive management of power infrastructure. It's intended for use with high-density server racks, network closets, and other critical infrastructure where a 40kW, 400V online UPS is specified.

Installation Notes

Requires a 3-phase, 400V input power source and a compatible 400V, 3-phase output distribution panel. Installation must be performed by qualified electricians familiar with high-voltage, 3-phase systems. Ensure adequate ventilation as the unit dissipates 4333 BTU/h. The maximum input current draw is 72A, requiring appropriate circuit protection and wiring. The unit supports 40-70 Hz input frequency and outputs a stable 50/60 Hz sine wave. The THD for output voltage is rated at 1%, ensuring minimal distortion for sensitive loads.
