4. DISTRIBUTED PARALLEL ARCHITECTURE
DPA
Why do we parallel UPS’s ?
For Superior Reliability (Redundancy)
The answer to superior reliability requirements for business-
critical applications is true redundancy, where all parallel
modules equally share the load.
If one module fails the remaining modules will continue to
provide power protection.
For Power Upgrade (Scalability)
To meet the power requirement demands of growing data-
centers and telecom
systems it is possible to easily reconfigure an existing
UPS-power system by simply adding one or more modules.

Hot-Stand-by Configuration Cascade system
• Each UPS can support total load
• No-load condition for No 2
Mains Mains • Compromise solution - no parallel load
By-pass Line sharing
• The overload capability is limited by the
capacity of one single system = 150%
typical
• The system must execute 2 by-pass
operations under overload conditions in
series !

Parallel systems offer increased reliability
They still have single failure points
It’s the intermediate step to reach
redundancy
NOT EVERY PARALLEL UPS IS A REDUNDANT SYSTEM!

DPA
“Redundant Parallel Systems”
“Redundancy” means:
The existence in the system of more than one possibility to
fulfil the demanded function - or - the system can afford at
least one single failure of any type
Redundancy degree is “n+x”:
n = number of units / elements to fulfil the demanded function
x = number of units / elements which can fail without influence
n+1 = one unit / element can fail and the demanded function is
maintained

16. DISTRIBUTED PARALLEL ARCHITECTURE
DPA
Example:
if the demanded function is fly, redundancy means:
• 3 engines can fails and the demended function is mantained
REDUNDANCY N+3
• If one wing fails the demanded function is not maintained
NO REDUNDANCY
Single point of failure

18. REDUNDANCY IN UPS MEANS
Fault tolerance:
A fault-tolerant or failure-tolerant system is a system which
continues its operation even if one or more parts of the system fail
Error masking:
Capabilty to mask failures in order to avoid any influence on the
demanded function
Error detection:
A sensor / supervisory-element to detect single failures
Error isolation:
Capability to isolate faulty parts without disturbing the demanded
function
28/02/2006 Newave SA – info@newave.ch - www.newaveups.com ML3-49 18
19. REDUNDANCY IN UPS MEANS
Fault Analysis - part identification:
Capability to analyse a failure and identify the faulty part
Error removal:
Replacement of faulty parts without disturbing the demanded
function
Return to normal mode:
Normal operation will be restored without interrupting the
demanded function
28/02/2006 Newave SA – info@newave.ch - www.newaveups.com ML3-49 19
20. REDUNDANCY IN UPS MEANS
•Fault tolerance
•Error masking
•Error detection
•Error isolation
•Fault analysis
•Error removal
•Return to normal mode
All these operations must be carried out without
putting any strains on the load:
!! WITHOUT INTERRUPTION !!
