Power protection in the data center is critical to maintain up time, and the increased densities in data centers is driving the need for uninterruptible power with increased power density, power efficiency, and flexibility. The HP RP36000/3 does just that. This pre-racked uninterruptible power systems provides 36 kilowatts (KW) of power or 24KW with N+1 redundancy. Housed in a single rack cabinet, (HP Rack 10000 Series G2 42U) it can be expanded to 60KW with N+1 simply by installing up to 3 additional RP12000/3 UPS Modules. Digital signal processing, UPS paralleling, and a new On-line On Demand hybrid technology answer the demands for density, redundancy, efficiency and flexibility.

On-line On Demand combines the efficiency of a line interactive UPS, up to 97%, with the stability of a double conversion on-line UPS when power fluctuates beyond acceptable limits. Hot swappable batteries and electronics modules and an automatic bypass reduce MTTER (mean time to repair) - down time in the event service is needed.

• State-of-the-art UPS paralleling technology provides no single point of failure
• Modular design
• Unity Rated, volt amperage out equals wattage out
• Industry leading efficiency with On-line On Demand hybrid technology
• Hot-swappable battery and electronics modules provide ease of maintenance and faster time to repair
• Extra long battery life with Enhanced Battery Management (EBM)
• Extended battery run time with optional Extended Runtime Modules (ERMs)
• Easy configuration through enhanced front panel display or included management software
• Backed by a limited three-year warranty, HP's pre-failure warranty for batteries

Configured to order, the HP RP36000/3 UPS ships with three HP RP12000/3 UPS Modules, the power bus bar, and the wiring cabinet installed in an HP Rack 10000 G2 Series 42U rack cabinet. Each module houses its own electronics, batteries, and intelligent automatic bypass module for maximum redundancy. A unique patented state-of-the-art UPS paralleling technology allows all the modules to function independently of each other. Should one of the modules fail then the remaining modules seamlessly redistribute the new load requirement through an automatic load sharing process (with transparent transfer time). And since both the logic and electronics are housed in the each of the individual HP RP12000/3 UPS Modules this technology eliminates system-level single point of failure. The base configuration can be configured as either a 36kW UPS or a 24kW parallel UPS with N+1 redundancy. Up to three additional HP RP12000/3 UPS Modules can be added to provide a maximum of 60 kilowatts with N+1 redundancy (in the same rack).

With its high speed Digital Signal Processing (DSP) design all necessary information for paralleling is available to all UPS modules and eliminates single points of failure. The load share control algorithms maintain synchronization and load balance by constantly making minute adjustments to variations in the output power requirements. The paralleling technology in the HP RP36000/3 UPS provides the highest level of reliability and system availability.

The HP RP36000/3 UPS and HP RP12000/3 UPS Modules have a uniquely designed architecture, consisting of separate, hot swappable battery and electronics modules. Further, a built-in intelligent automatic bypass feature ensures continuous power to your connected load even while the modules are being replaced. Ease of maintenance and serviceability

• Faster time to repair (low MTTR)
• Automatic and manual bypass
• Increased flexibility through modular design

The HP RP36000/3 UPS includes an isolated REPO (Remote Emergency Power Off) port. The REPO feature allows the power to the UPS outlets to be switched off from a remote location. For more information, refer the HP RP36000/3 UPS user manual.

Output may be hardwired to a remote power panel, such as the HP Power Distribution Rack, or optionally via the UPS Output Modules which provide two 3 phase connections per HP RP12000/3 UPS Modules to connect directly to adjacent racks of equipment.

The HP Power Distribution Rack enhances power management in the data center by moving power distribution to the row level. Decentralizing power improves cable management, decreases diagnostic time for problems, and saves installation costs by reducing the size and number of long power feeds required to reach from large wall mounted distribution units. Housed in a single HP Rack 10000 G2 42U rack cabinet, the HP PDR also save floor space and allows you to move heat robbing transformers off of the data center floor improving cooling.

Fully redundant inputs and outputs, can power large numbers of racks with shorter cable runs than conventional site level power distribution systems while providing dependable power to protect valuable IT hardware. Individual branch circuit monitoring and redundant management modules insure you can always determine status and power consumption of each attached rack.

NOTE: for more information on the HP Power Distribution Rack please see: www.hp.com/go/pdr

Output modules attach directly to each HP RP12000/3 UPS Modules in the configuration. Each output module provides two L15-30R out puts (NA) or 2 IEC 309 516C9 (16A, 3 phase) outlets (INTL). By using 3 phase jumper cables the output modules can be connected directly to HP 3 Phase Modular or Monitored PDUs in several individual racks. Because of the UPS Parallel design even a loss of a HP RP12000/3 UPS Module would not interrupt the load on the output module attached to it. Up to 6 Output Modules can be configured in a fully loaded HP Parallel UPS.

The HP UPS Management Module (included) enables you to monitor and manage power environments through comprehensive control of HP UPSs. The HP UPS Management Module can support either a single UPS configuration or provides additional power protection with support for dual redundant UPS configuration for no-single-point-of-failure. The additional serial ports will provide greater power management control and flexible monitoring.
The management module can be configured to send alert traps to HP Systems Insight Manager and other SNMP management programs or used as a standalone management system. This flexibility enables you to monitor and manage UPSs through the network. To facilitate day-to-day maintenance tasks, the embedded management software provides detailed system logs.
The HP UPS Management Module provides remote management of a UPS by connecting the UPS directly to the network. Configuration & Management of the UPS from anywhere and at anytime via a standard web browser.

• HP RP12000/3 UPS Modules are backed by a standard three-year limited warranty; 3-year parts, 1-year Labor, 1-year onsite. Optional UPS HP Care Pack services are also available for purchase. The power bus bar is covered by a 3-year parts only warranty.
• Pre-Failure Battery Warning and its associated Warranty.
  • The Pre-Failure Battery Warning is proactively detected and notified by a LED indicator light, showing that the battery needs to be replaced. This notice is given 30 days prior to the battery failure. This indicator provides ample time to order a spare battery (1-800-HP-Invent). Avoid storing battery spares as a back up because of short shelf life of the battery. The battery warranty coverage is 3 years for parts. The warranty for the first year of ownership includes parts and labor.
  • Warranty, standard on all HP Uninterruptible Power System (UPS) units, extends the advantage of a HP three-year limited warranty by applying it to the battery before it actually fails. Specifically, the Pre-Failure Battery Warranty ensures that when customers receive the notification from their HP UPS that the battery may fail, the battery is replaced free of charge under the warranty. HP maintains the highest standards in the industry, as evidenced by the HP Pre-Failure Battery Warranty.
• In addition, HP UPSs are covered by a $250,000 equipment protection guarantee. Should your connected equipment get damaged due to a UPS failure, then your damaged equipment is covered to up to $250,000.

NOTE: The $250,000 Equipment Protection Guarantee is offered only in North America.

HP Care Pack Services include HP branded hardware options qualified for the server, purchased at the same time or afterwards, internal to the enclosure, as well as 22" and smaller external monitors and rack mounted UPS options. HP Uninterruptible Power Systems will be covered at the same service level and coverage period as the server. For servers or storage systems installed within a rack, service also covers all HP qualified rack options installed within the same rack.
