Eaton Africa’s 9395X UPS is a high-performance, compact power solution tailored for hyperscale and co-location data centres.

With a size up to 30% smaller than similar models, it optimises space and reduces operational costs. The 9395X supports power ratings up to 1,700 kVA, with scalable expansion options. Incorporating silicon carbide (SiC) converters, it achieves an impressive 97.5% efficiency in double-conversion mode, lowering energy consumption and cooling requirements.

Its innovative design features top exhaust and no rear clearance, simplifying installation. The UPS is equipped with ready-built sub-assemblies and an inter-cabinet busbar system for quick deployment. Self-configuring power modules and HotSync technology facilitate reliable parallel operation without communication links. Advanced monitoring provides real-time system insights, improving maintenance and reliability.

Additionally, the 9395X emphasises sustainability with a full life-cycle analysis and eco passport. Cybersecurity measures ensure protection against evolving threats, making it a secure, efficient, and space-saving power solution for modern data centres.

“We designed silicon carbide-based converters into the Eaton 9395X, so that it brings to market an efficiency of 97.5% in double-conversion mode,” said Joel Kärkkäinen, product manager of large 3phase UPS, Critical Power Solutions at Eaton. “The fact that it needs up to 30% less cooling, and up to 30% less floor space than similar UPS models, means that this UPS leaves more room for revenue-generating IT equipment. It has top exhaust, with no rear clearance required, which means a further saving on space and lower installation costs.”
