In addition to its exceptional power rating
and size, the Powerware 5140 also
incorporates Advanced Battery
Management (ABM™) which assures
reliability and improves performance by
doubling battery service life, optimizing
recharge time, and providing up to a 60­day notice of the end of useful battery life.

The Powerware 5140 utilizes multiple
receptacle groups, called Load Segments,
which can be pre-configured to shutdown
peripherals first to effectively triple battery
run times for the most critical equipment.
Extended Battery Modules (EBMs) are also
available to extend run times, and to
preserve data integrity, the Powerware
5140 is bundled with award-winning
LanSafe III and FailSafe III power
management software.

T

o meet the power protection needs of

rapidly expanding rack-based
applications, Powerware Corporation
(formerly Exide Electronics) proudly intro­duces the Powerware 5140 Rack-Mount
uninterruptible power system (UPS). The
Powerware 5140 is powerful and flexible
enough to respond to the demands of
virtually any Enterprise computing
network.

The Powerware 5140 is designed with a
unity power factor rating, meaning it is
ideally suited to meet the requirements of
today's Power Factor Corrected (PFC)
loads. With proven and reliable technology,
it delivers up to a third more power than
traditionally rated UPSs while still
occupying only 6U (10.5 inches) of
valuable rack space.

Rating: 6000 VA/

6000 Watts

Voltage: 200-240 Vac

Frequency: 50/60 Hz

Configuration: 6U rack-mount

for standard
19-inch racks

Product Snapshot

Technical Specifications

1

The lead-acid batteries typically used in a
UPS are considered viable as long as they
can maintain backup times of at least half
that of new batteries. The illustration to the
right shows that batteries that are constantly
trickle charged (as are virtually all other UPS
batteries on the market today) reach the end
of their useful life in less than half the time
of batteries charged using ABM. ABM uses a
patented three-stage charging technique that
not only doubles battery service life, but
also optimizes battery recharge time and
provides up to a 60-day advanced notifi­cation of pending end of useful battery life.

Advanced Battery Management (ABM™) Technology Doubles Battery Service Life

Unity Power
Factor Rating

What does unity power factor rating mean?
Quite simply, it means that the watt rating of the
UPS is equal to its VA rating. Traditionally,
UPSs have been designed, built, and sold with a
power factor rating of approximately 0.6 to 0.7.
For example, a 1000 VA UPS could supply a
maximum of 600 to 700 watts. Historically, this

0.7 power factor was appropriate for the
majority of computer loads the UPS was
intended to support since most computers
demanded power at a 0.7 power factor.

Today, however, a large percentage of high-end
computers, utilize Power Factor Corrected
(PFC) power supplies, which have a power
factor of approximately 1.0. Take a look at the
configuration below:

To support this load, you need to select a
UPS with a rating that meets or exceeds both
the watt and VA demand shown above.
A traditionally rated 5000 VA/3750 watt UPS
without a unity power factor rating cannot be
used. The Powerware 5140, on the other
hand, has capacity to spare.

Powerware 5140 Features

Load Segments

Load Segments are groups of receptacles that can be independently controlled via the front
panel LCD interface and/or LanSafe III/FailSafe III, which is bundled with the Powerware

5140. Load Segments provide extended battery run times and flexible management of the
UPS. The five Load Segments of model PW5140 6000i are outlined below.

Extended Battery Modules (EBMs)

To extend battery backup times, you can connect up to two EBMs. Each EBM occupies
3U (5.25 inches) of rack space.

Load Segments divide the
Powerware 5140 into five
virtual UPSs

You can hot-swap both the
standard batteries and EBMs
without powering down the
connected load. This makes it
possible to extend the life of
the UPS without returning the
unit for service.
