    Nfinity's modular design was devised to provide easy scalability to users as their power demands grow. By simply installing additional power or battery modules, you can expand your current system, extend your backup runtime or add redundancy.

     

    Scalability Provides The Flexibility To Expand

    Nfinity's patent-pending frame design provides the user with the maximum adaptability that is demanded in todayŐs ever-changing network environment.

    Because Nfinity is scalable for redundancy, power capacity or battery run time, you have greater flexibility in how you can use the system. Configurations can be cost-effectively upgraded without re-investing in a new system or installation.

     

    Longer Battery Run Time

    The system's flexible frame design allows battery backup times to be customized to customer needs while maintaining a smaller footprint. To extend run times, just add battery modules. Nfinity also has a faster recharge time than similar units.

    12-Bay And 8-Bay Models Available

    Using an 8-bay frame, Nfinity provides capacities up to 16 kVA in a non-redundant mode and up to 12 kVA in an N+1 redundant mode -- with an incredibly small footprint (only 20"W x 28"D x 41"H). In an 8-bay frame, power modules must only be used in the top half of the frame with a maximum of four modules. Up to seven battery modules can be installed in any of the bays.

    The 12-bay frame provides up to 18 kVA, with or without redundancy, in the same footprint as the 8-bay unit and only 54" high. An 18 kVA system will actually have 20 kVA of power capacity, however, the actual output power is limited to 18 kVA to allow direct connection to a 100A feeder. The 12-bay frame can utilize up to six power modules in the top half of the frame and as many as 11 battery modules installed in any of the bays.

     

      Hot-Swappable
    Hot-swappable modules allow you to add or replace power, battery control, and display modules without shutting the load down or affecting power to it. In redundant mode, this means no downtime for repair. Nfinity's hot-swappable modules also make it easy for the user to handle basic service.

    Cabinet Stands Small, Stays Small
    Nfinity's compact, efficient design allows you to pack more power and battery capability into a much smaller sized unit, so it takes up less of your valuable floor space.

     
     
     
    Nfinity is the most intelligent power system we've ever built. The fault-tolerant design enables the power, battery and control modules to take themselves "off-line" if there is a problem, without compromising system integrity. System level and individual module microprocessor controls increase UPS functionality and reliability. When Nfinity modules are inserted, they perform a full self-diagnostic test before going on-line.

    IntelliControl™ Module -- The system control module works with the user interface to provide vital information about the condition of the power and battery modules. The use of a paired system control provides full systems functionality in the event of any single failure and ensures that operations and communications are always available.

    IntelliBattery™ Module -- Nfinity's patent pending innovative battery module continuously monitors the battery's voltage, current, and temperature to determine the state of its batteries and predict performance. Each module contains an intelligent battery sensing circuit that will take it off-line if a problem is detected, so as not to affect the performance of other good battery modules in the system.

     
    Intelligent Power Modules -- provide protection against power outages, spikes, surges, noise, and sags. Designed in 4 kVA "building blocks," they utilize patent pending current sharing technology that ensures premium quality power. Nfinity power modules feature a power factor corrected (PFC) rectifier to create a sinusoidal input current waveform. This allows the system to use utility power more efficiently and reduces reflected distortion. A true on-line system, Nfinity provides continuous, regenerated sinewave output power.

    Intelligent Bypass -- The patent pending Intelligent Bypass technology provides seamless transfers to and from the bypass source to insure continuity of power and provide maximum system availability.

  • The system also communicates to and monitors internal and extended battery cabinets.

     

  •   Shutdown Monitoring Software
    MultiLink™ is the perfect complement to the Liebert Nfinity UPS because it prevents unexpected server shutdowns, protects data and minimizes downtime. The software provides unattended, orderly shutdown for one computer or many, and is especially effective with large server farms. MultiLink has full event management and displays UPS instrumentation on screen. MultiLink is available for all popular operating systems and can be downloaded from the Liebert website at www.liebert.com.

    User Interface Control Panel
    The user interface is the main source of communication between the Nfinity UPS and the user. It features an easy-to-read LCD display and LED mimic diagram. The control panel informs the user of the status of the UPS, including the power and battery modules, and allows you to configure the system to fit specific needs or preferences. You can also review the event log and even receive instructions on replacing modules.

       
      The modular design of Nfinity allows you to choose the amount of redundancy you need with greater flexibility than competitive systems. When in a redundant configuration, a failed module will automatically take itself off-line while the other modules continue to support the connected equipment.

    Nfinity is a 4 to 18 kVA UPS designed with N+x parallel redundancy to provide a fault tolerant network of power protection for maximum systems availability.

     
    Redundant Power Modules -- parallel redundancy is achieved by adding extra power modules that equally share the electrical load.
