HP RP36000/3, RP12000/3 Datasheet

Can you meet your power
protection needs?

Power protection in your data center has always been
a critical requirement to maintain system uptime and
keep a dynamic business running. Today, the
increased densities in data centers drive the need for
uninterruptible power with increased power density,
power efficiency and flexibility. The HP RP36000/3
Uninterruptible Power System provides all three.

This pre-racked uninterruptible power system (UPS)
provides 36 kilowatts (kW) of power or 24 kW with
N+1 redundancy. Housed in a single HP 10000 G2
Series 42U rack, the system can be expanded to 60
kW with N+1 simply by installing up to three additional
RP12000/3 UPS Modules. Digital Signal Processing
(DSP), UPS paralleling and new Online On Demand
hybrid technology answer the call for increased density,
redundancy, efficiency and flexibility.

Online On Demand combines the efficiency of a
line-interactive UPS, up to 97 percent, with the stability
of a double conversion online UPS when power
fluctuates beyond acceptable limits. Hot-swappable
batteries and electronics modules and an automatic
bypass reduce downtime for maintenance.

Key features and benefits

The new HP RP36000/3 Uninterruptible Power Systems
are designed to provide high power output with industry­leading efficiency for mission-critical enterprise solutions
and data centers.

Performance

• Supports up to 60000 volt-amperes (VA)/60000
watts in a single 42U rack

• Offers unity power factor, which means volt
amperage out equals wattage output

• Delivers industry-leading 97 percent efficiency, even
at output loads as low as 40 percent, with Online
On Demand hybrid technology

• Uses UPS paralleling for redundancy and expansion

• Delivers extra long battery life with Enhanced Battery
Management (EBM)

• Extends battery run time with optional Extended
Runtime Modules (ERMs)

• Enables longer run time with Digital Signal Processing
technology (DSP)

HP 3 Phase Parallel Uninterruptible
Power Systems

Data sheet

Efficiency, modularity and redundancy give HP 3 Phase
Parallel Uninterruptible Power Systems the ability to grow
with your data center needs, with lower energy costs and
cooling needs than conventional large uninterruptible
power systems.

Management

• Includes UPS Management Module for remote
configuration and graceful shutdown of critical
servers without the need for a dedicated
management server

• Includes hot-swappable electronics and batteries

• Is backed by a limited three-year warranty and HP
pre-failure warranty on the batteries

Redundancy

• Offers N+1 redundancy with UPS paralleling
technology

• Allows up to six UPS modules to work together to
increase load capacity and N+1 fault tolerance

• In the event of a failure, the load shifts to remaining
modules to provide 100 percent UPS protection

Options

• Allows you to attach up to four 3U Extended Runtime
Modules to each UPS for increased run time in the
event of a power failure

• Supports output modules with dual L15-30 receptacles
that can be connected to each UPS module for a total
of 12 L15-30 connections

• Fully compatible with the HP Power Distribution Rack
to provide power and scalability to rows of equipment

Ideal environments

Large data centers

The HP 3 Phase Parallel UPS can provide you with
additional power protection for multiple racks of critical
equipment in the event of a power outage, with better
efficiency than many site-level UPS systems.

Small to midsize data centers

When hundreds of kilowatts of power are not necessary,
the HP 3 Phase Parallel Uninterruptible Power System
provides power protection for an entire row of racks. Its
unique modular design allows your system to grow
with demand. Hot-swappable electronics and batteries
reduce downtime.

Collocation facilities

The HP 3 Phase Parallel UPS can provide power
protection to one or more racks and can be managed by
administrators separately from the collocation facilities.

Recommended options

RP12000/3 UPS Module AF436 (NA) and AF437 (INTL)

Based on the R12000/3, this UPS is specially designed
to attach directly to the bus bar in the RP36000/3,
allowing it to expand to 60 kW with N+1 redundancy.

HP Power Distribution Rack

The HP Power Distribution Rack (PDR) improves power
management in the data center by moving power
distribution to the row level. Decentralizing power improves
cable management, decreases diagnostic time for
problems, and saves installation costs by reducing the
size and number of long power feeds required to reach
from large wall-mounted distribution units. Capable of
high amperage inputs, the HP PDR can power several
high-density racks with shorter cable runs than
conventional site-level power distribution systems. Fully
redundant inputs and outputs provide dependable
power while protecting valuable IT equipment. Individual
branch circuit monitoring and redundant management
modules provide the status and power consumption of
each attached rack.

HP Power Distribution Units AF504A, AF503A,
AF508A and AF507A

The monitored vertical rack-mount power distribution
units (PDUs) units can connect directly to the optional
UPS output modules and provide three-phase monitored
power, as well as full-rack power utility ranging from

8.6 kilovolt-amperes (kVA) up to 22 kVA. Available
PDUs include full-rack models with 39 receptacles or
with 78 receptacles.

HP 3 Phase Modular Power Distribution Units AF512A
and AF513A

These high-output, 8.6 kVA (North America/Japan) and
11 kVA (International) Modular PDUs have a unique
modular architecture designed specifically for data center
customers who want to increase power distribution and
space efficiencies in the rack. Modular PDUs consist of
two building blocks: the Control Unit (core) and the
optional Extension Bars (sticks). The Control Unit is
1U/0U, and the optional Extension Bars mount directly
to the frame of the rack in multiple locations.
