PROJECT OVERVIEW
Scalable 10kVA & 5kVA Power Infrastructure
In today’s digital landscape, power interruptions are a direct threat to business continuity. The primary objective of this project was to design and deploy a robust server room backup solution engineered to provide seamless, uninterrupted power for mission-critical IT infrastructure. When businesses cannot afford a single second of downtime, custom inverter and lithium battery architectures provide the ultimate safety net.
System Capabilities
- Zero-Interruption Power: The system functions as a line-interactive UPS, ensuring servers and network hardware continue operating without disruption during outages.
- Extended Runtime: Engineered to provide scalable, significantly longer runtimes than traditional IT UPS systems.
- Remote Visibility: Integrated Victron Cerbo GX for 24/7 real-time cloud analytics and system management.
- Advanced Monitoring: 24/7 real-time cloud analytics via Victron Cerbo GX.
Technical Specifications
- Primary System: 10kVA Victron Quattro Inverter
- Primary Storage: 10.6kWh Weco LiFePO4 Battery System
- Secondary System: 5kVA Victron Multiplus II + 5.3kWh Weco Battery
- Failover Response: Sub-20 milliseconds (Line-Interactive UPS capability)
- Continuous Runtime: 4+ Hours scalable
- Design Lifespan: 10+ Years
Why Choose Victron & Weco for Server Room Backup?
This installation showcases our highly scalable approach to enterprise power resilience. We deployed a heavy-duty 10kVA Victron Quattro Inverter paired with a 10.6kWh high-cycle Weco Lithium-Ion (LiFePO4) battery system, alongside a highly efficient 5kVA Victron Multiplus II setup with 5.3kWh of Weco battery storage.
While standard rack-mounted UPS systems offer only minutes of emergency power, our custom server room backup systems deliver significantly extended runtimes. By integrating premium components from Victron Energy and Weco, we guarantee long-term reliability. The system functions identically to a line-interactive UPS. With a transfer time of under 20 milliseconds, active servers, network switches, and sensitive data arrays continue operating without any disruption during a grid failure.
Furthermore, IT managers require complete visibility. We integrated the Victron Cerbo GX, which connects the entire power infrastructure to the VRM cloud portal. This allows for 24/7 real-time remote monitoring, proactive fault detection, and total control over the facility’s power status from any mobile device or workstation.
