PSS Distributors launches UPS solutions for Specialist Disability Accommodations

Thu, 6th Jun 2024

Australian power supply manufacturing company, PSS Distributors, has introduced a new range of Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPS) solutions specifically tailored for High-Physical-Support (HPS) homes. These products are aimed at mitigating the concerns associated with power outages in Specialist Disability Accommodations (SDAs), where consistent electricity is vital for the well-being of residents with significant physical disabilities.

HPS homes are equipped with a variety of electronic systems designed to increase accessibility and comfort for individuals with limited physical mobility. These systems include automated lighting, split system temperature control, and electronically controlled doors and sensors. A power outage can disrupt these essential services, potentially compromising both safety and independence. With this in mind, PSS Distributors has developed a range of NDIS UPS units that adhere to National Disabilities Insurance Scheme (NDIS) specifications, ensuring a reliable power supply even during unexpected disruptions.

The newly launched UPS units are designed to support critical devices seamlessly, providing uninterrupted care and comfort. Each unit boasts key features such as significant load capacity, a minimum runtime of 120 minutes during emergencies, and scalability to accommodate future expansions. These units can power vital medical devices, automatic doors, and emergency alarms, thus ensuring no interruption to these essential services.

The product range includes several models, each designed to meet different needs. The NDIS-E2000-9 model caters to medium load requirements within 1600W and is ideal for small-scale HPS facilities. It supports one to two rooms and does not require on-site assembly. This model's heat generation stands at 200W at maximum load, and it is suitable for running medical devices for up to two hours.

A more advanced option, the NDIS-G4000-4 model, offers a higher range of applications, providing a consistent flow of power to automatic doors, hoisting equipment, and medical devices. This model involves an on-site battery assembly, with hardwired single-phase input and output, and can support one to four rooms with a total load of 2000W. With heat generation at 1200W, it guarantees a runtime of two hours during power outages.

For higher demand applications, the NDIS-E10000-4 UPS supports two to five rooms and offers a total load capacity of 2500W. This model requires minimal on-site assembly and provides front access for battery testing, ensuring a hassle-free user experience. It is designed to power medical devices and automatic doors seamlessly.

The NDIS-G10000-5 model is ideal for high-load demand applications across up to five rooms. It offers a stable power flow with a total load of 2500W, ensuring that power interruptions do not affect essential services. The unit's optimal runtime of 120 minutes underscores its reliability in maintaining comfortable living conditions.

The largest model in the range, the NDIS-G10000-9, can supply power across four to nine rooms with a high load demand. This model can handle a total load of 4500W, providing more than three outlets for double GPO applications. It is engineered to run medical devices, automatic doors, and hoisting equipment simultaneously for up to two hours.

These UPS systems represent a significant advancement in supporting individuals living in HPS homes. By ensuring that essential systems remain operational during outages, PSS Distributors aims to enhance the quality of life for many individuals. This new product line underscores the company's commitment to improving power security and safety, particularly for the most vulnerable populations.

Customers are encouraged to explore the range and select the UPS system that best fits the requirements of their high physical support homes. PSS Distributors continues to focus on innovative solutions to meet these critical needs, ensuring uninterrupted care and comfort for all users.
