  • Page 253: Description

    With backfeed protection and compliance to EMC standards the TLE Series 160 - 500 complies to current standards. Reliability can be further increased by paralleling up to six UPS units utilizing GE’s unique RPA™ technology (Redundant Parallel Architecture). With RPA every UPS is controlled in a true peer-to-peer configuration with redundancy in all critical elements and functions, eliminating all single points of failure.

    (RFC-1628); GE Single MIB; GE Parallel MIB). The UPS can therefore be managed by a Network Management System (NMS) or by our applications (for instance GE iUPSGuard or GE Data Protection), which uses this information to determine the state of the UPS in order to guarantee safe and orderly shut-down of the server, when needed.

  • Page 507: Maintenance

    A UPS system, like other electrical equipment, needs periodic preventive maintenance. A regular maintenance check of your installation guarantees higher reliability of your safe power supply. GE recommends to perform the first service within 12 months from the commissioning date or within 18 months from delivery date.
