Inside a critical install
Hot-swap, live-load: how a 2 MVA hospital UPS gets replaced without dropping a single ventilator.
The procedure begins eighteen weeks before the swap. Drawings reviewed. Power quality logged for fifteen days against AS IEC 61000-4-30. Maintenance bypass verified, hot-tested, signed off. The new lithium-ion battery cabinet pre-staged and commissioned to AS/NZS 5139.
The actual cutover is twenty-three minutes of choreography between the floor electrician, the BMS engineer, and the supplier-trained commissioning lead. ICU never sees a millisecond of disturbance. The old VRLA strings leave the building before sunrise. The new system carries on.
That's what mission-critical means. It is not a marketing word. It is the level of preparation that has to be true before the work begins.

01 / 12
Data Centres & IT Infrastructure
Data centres are the canonical UPS use case, and the most demanding. Tier classifications (I-IV) drive UPS architecture: from single-path Tier I through to fault-tolerant 2N Tier IV with full dual-bus distribution. Every design decision (topology, redundancy, battery chemistry, bypass strategy) flows from the tier target.
02 / 12
AI, GPU & High-Density Computing
AI training and inference workloads draw far more power than legacy IT. Typical NVIDIA H100 racks pull 30-60kW each, and dense AI training pods can exceed 100kW per rack. Power architecture must accommodate higher rack density, bigger inrush currents, and tighter voltage regulation tolerances than traditional data hall design.
03 / 12
Healthcare & Medical
Healthcare UPS work spans patient-critical equipment (ventilators, infusion pumps, monitors), high-current diagnostic imaging (MRI, CT, fluoroscopy), and back-of-house systems (HMS, PACS, switchboards). Each category has different uptime, isolation, and protection requirements, and each is governed by overlapping clinical and electrical standards.
04 / 12
Pharmaceutical & Cleanroom
Pharmaceutical manufacturing and cleanroom environments require continuous power for cleanroom HVAC, autoclaves, freezers, and process equipment; interruption can cost a batch worth tens of thousands to millions of dollars. UPS architecture must be designed against GMP and TGA validation requirements with full change-control documentation.
What we do
Specification through to twenty-year service.
Single-phase rack and tower UPS for server rooms and POS protection. Three-phase modular UPS for data centres and hospitals. Battery replacement, commissioning, power integrity inspection, and end-to-end critical-power design.

About UPS Services Australia
Reliable power for the infrastructure that matters.
Why reliable power matters
Unplanned downtime costs Australian businesses an average of $5,600 per minute in lost revenue, productivity and reputational damage. For hospitals, a power interruption can place patients at direct clinical risk. For data centres operating at Tier III or above, even a momentary sag outside the ITIC curve triggers hardware faults and SLA breaches. A properly specified, installed and maintained UPS system is the last line of defence between your critical load and a utility event you cannot control.
Our services
UPS Services provides end-to-end critical-power solutions across Australia, covering every phase of the UPS lifecycle:
- Single-phase UPS installation for server rooms, POS systems and commercial office protection up to 20 kVA.
- Three-phase UPS installation for data centres, hospitals, mining and industrial process loads, modular and legacy, up to 1.6 MW.
- Battery replacement: VRLA, AGM, and lithium-ion strings sized, supplied and installed to AS/NZS 5139.
- Preventative maintenance: annual, bi-annual and quarterly programs including battery impedance testing, thermal imaging, and firmware review.
- Design & deployment: power quality logging, load analysis, redundancy modelling, and full project delivery from specification to commissioning.
Support for AI & high-density computing
AI inference clusters, GPU-accelerated HPC racks and high-density colocation environments are pushing power densities past 40 kW per rack. Traditional UPS architectures designed for 6–8 kW per cabinet cannot scale without significant re-engineering. We specify and deploy modular three-phase UPS systems, including the Eaton 9395 and APC Galaxy VS, that support pay-as-you-grow power modules, lithium-ion battery cabinets with integrated BMS, and hot-swap capability that keeps your AI workloads running during capacity upgrades.

Common questions
Answers before you ask.
Add up the wattage of all equipment to be protected (read from PDU meters or nameplate ratings), multiply by 1.25 to allow for inrush and growth, then convert to kVA by dividing by your equipment power factor (typically 0.9 for modern IT). For a typical 10kW server room load, a 12-15kVA UPS with 10-15 minute runtime is appropriate. Our team performs a free load assessment to confirm sizing.
Battery runtime depends on your generator handover strategy. If you have a generator, 5-15 minutes covers genset startup and warm-up. If no generator, runtime targets are typically driven by graceful-shutdown time (10-15 minutes for IT) or critical-process duration. Telco exchanges typically run 4-8 hours.
Single-phase UPS handles up to ~20kVA (in practice, most installations cap at 10-12kVA for thermal and circuit reasons). Above that, three-phase UPS is more efficient and balances load across phases for the building electrical system. Three-phase is also typical when the protected load itself is three-phase (motor drives, large HVAC, industrial process).
Online (double-conversion) UPS continuously regenerates the output sine wave from the DC bus, best for sensitive equipment, dirty input power, and mission-critical IT. Line-interactive UPS uses an AVR transformer and switches to inverter only when input fails, cost-effective for typical IT and commercial. Standby/AVR is the cheapest and lowest-protection class, only for non-critical loads.
Annual preventative maintenance is the manufacturer-recommended minimum. Mission-critical environments (data centres, hospitals, telco) typically run bi-annual or quarterly schedules driven by ISO 27001 / ISO 22301 compliance frameworks. High-temperature or dusty environments require more frequent intervention.
