Pulsar EXtreme C UPSs have been
designed to meet the needs of modern
equipment, including network, intranet
and internet servers, internetworking
devices, computer and telecom (PBX)
centres, medical equipment and sensitive
industrial processes.

Pulsar EXtreme C is available in both
tower and rack versions with power

High performance and reliability

Pulsar EXtreme C provides power protection and extends battery life to increase
system reliability.

◗ On-line double conversion

technology

Pulsar EXtreme C UPSs use double
conversion (on-line) technology, the only
way to overcome all power problems.
The battery is used only as a backup source.

Automatic bypass

Bypass mode

On-line mode

FilterFilter

Battery

Whatever the disturbances on the distribution system, the
waveform is regenerated via the AC to DC then DC to AC
conversion process.

◗ Wide input-voltage range

Pulsar EXtreme C UPSs have a very wide
input-voltage range from 120 to 276 V,
optimized to improve compatibility with
engine generator sets and reduce the
number of transfers to battery power.
The batteries are used only for the most
serious incidents, maximizing available
backup time and extending battery life.

◗ High-performance battery

charger

The Pulsar EXtreme battery charger:

• reduces battery recharge time (80%
backup time recovered in two hours);

• increases the service life of the battery
by taking into account manufacturer
parameters and battery aging;

• protects the battery against damage
caused by deep discharge;

• avoids disturbances on the distribution
system by correcting the power factor;

• avoids propagating faults on the
distribution system (backfeed
protection).

◗ Certified compliance with

CE and UL standards

High availability

Pulsar EXtreme C UPSs guarantee a high level of
availability, equal to 99.999% or higher.

◗ Cold start on battery power

This function ensures trouble-free start-up
of your applications even during a utility
power outage.

◗ Automatic bypass

In the event of an overload or UPS fault,
Pulsar EXtreme C automatically transfers
the load to utility AC power.

◗ High-availability pack

A Pulsar STS source transfer switch
combined with two Pulsar EXtreme C UPSs
provides effective power redundancy.

Advanced communications

Ease of use

Pulsar EXtreme C UPSs offer communications solutions and accessories for remote UPS control
and monitoring.

◗ 2 communications ports

◗ Communications slot

Lets you add an SNMP, dry contact, etc.

communication card.

communication

RS232

communications port

An RS232 and a USB port are available
for easy connection of the UPS to the
server. It may be used for:

• personalization of Pulsar EXtreme C

USB

communications port

totally independent.
For example, they
keep you informed
of UPS status when
the server is shut

down.
by modifying the factory-set parameters
(output voltage, intervals between battery
tests, operation on bypass, etc.) via
UPS-Driver software.

• local or remote administration
(SNMP/WEB) of the UPS and the protected
servers, using Solution-Pac software.

◗ Solution-Pac software

Solution-Pac may be used to:

• alert users;

• automatically shut down different

◗ UPScontrol remote display

Using UPScontrol, the
various UPS
parameters are remotely
displayed.

◗ MultiSlot expansion module

This module provides three additional
communications slots and concentrates
the data from an installation comprising
redundant UPSs

servers in a heterogeneous environment;

• remotely supervise and control UPSs.

Pulsar EXtreme C is only two units high (2U)
and fits perfectly in your network or telecom
bays.

◗ Easy installation and integration

• Tower or 19”-rack models

• Complete installation kit

Pulsar EXtreme C is supplied with telescopic
rails and all the necessary hardware

Flexibility and scalability

Pulsar EXtreme C can adapt easily to all your needs, today and tomorrow.

◗ Backup times from 6 minutes to

several hours

Pulsar EXtreme offers a standard backup
time of 6 minutes.
To ensure greater continuity of service,
it is possible to:

• connect up to three Pulsar EXB battery
extension modules to the UPS, without
interrupting the supply of power to the
protected applications;

Pulsar EXtreme 1500 C + 3 Pulsar EXB
modules for 80 minutes of backup time
at full rated load .

• use the CLA module (long backup-time
charger) for very long backup times of up
to eight hours at full rated load.
Feel free to contact us for details.

◗ Hot-swappable batteries

Users can replace the batteries themselves
without having to shut down the protected
equipment.

◗ Individual management of

outlets with Powershare

The programmable outlets
make it possible to save
battery power for the most
critical applications. They
may also be used to
remotely restart or reset a
faulty device without
interrupting the other
protected devices.

• Quick start-up guide

• Easy connection to AC power.
