riello ups 1-3 kVA Sentinel Dual SDH

Product Information

  • The Sentinel Dual SDH is a versatile power protection system designed for various industries including data centers, digital living, e-medical, emergency, industry, and transport. It is available in 1:1 and 1-3 kVA capacities.
  • The product features a Towerack design, allowing it to be easily  placed on a desk or mounted in a standard 19-inch rack. It also supports energy sharing, enabling multiple devices to be connected and powered simultaneously.
  • The Sentinel Dual SDH is equipped with hot swap batteries, which means you can replace the batteries without turning off the system. This ensures continuous power supply and eliminates downtime.
  • Installation is effortless with the plug & play feature. Simply connect the UPS to your devices using the USB plug and it will start protecting your equipment from power disturbances.
  • In addition to its power protection capabilities, the Sentinel Dual SDH is designed with energy efficiency in mind. It operates in ON LINE mode, providing high efficiency and reliable power delivery. For applications requiring long battery runtimes, you can extend the battery autonomy by choosing models fitted with more powerful battery chargers.
  • To further save energy, the UPS is equipped with a shut-off button. This allows you to reduce energy consumption to zero during prolonged periods of inactivity.

Product Usage Instructions

  1. Choose an appropriate location for the Sentinel Dual SDH. It can be placed on a desk or mounted in a standard 19-inch rack.
  2. Connect your devices to the UPS using the USB plug. Ensure that the devices are compatible with the UPS power capacity.
  3. Plug the UPS into a power outlet.
  4. Press the power button to turn on the UPS.
  5. The UPS will automatically switch to ONLINE mode, providing high-efficiency power delivery.
  6. If you require extended battery runtimes, consider choosing models fitted with more powerful battery chargers.
  7. To conserve energy during periods of inactivity, press the shut-off button on the UPS.
  8. If the batteries need to be replaced, you can hot-swap them without turning off the UPS. Refer to the user manual for detailed instructions on battery replacement.

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Power factor 0.9
  • Simplified installation
  • Installation versatility
  • Reduced running costs
  • Runtime expandability
  • Low noise level

Sentinel Dual is the new range of high-density double-conversion ONLINE UPS suitable for powering a wide range of devices such as servers, storage systems, VoIP telephony equipment, network and medical systems as well as industrial applications.
It is also ideal for powering and protecting Blade Server systems with high input power factor. At only 2U, Sentinel Dual is ideal for 19” rack cabinet installations. Sentinel Dual has a practical, modern design and includes several performance advantages over traditional ON-LINE UPS. All were developed by the Riello UPS research and development team. The newly-designed inverter is one of the best energy conversion systems on the market, with a 0.9 output power factor and high efficiency in ON LINE Mode. For business continuity applications requiring long battery runtimes, battery autonomy can be extended up to several hours using ER models fitted with more powerful battery chargers. With energy savings in mind, Sentinel Dual is also fitted with a shut-off button to reduce energy consumption to zero during prolonged periods of inactivity.

SIMPLIFIED INSTALLATION

  • Sentinel Dual can be installed as a tower or in 19” rack cabinets, by simply pulling out and rotating the display panel;
  • Low noise ( <40 dBA): can be installed in any environment thanks to its high frequency switching inverter and PWM load-dependent digitally controlled fan;
  • Operation guaranteed up to 40 °C (the components are designed for high temperatures and are thus subject to less stress at normal temperatures);
  • On Sentinel Dual models, the output sockets can be programmed to disconnect less critical loads during blackouts (EnergyShare function).

INSTALLATION VERSATILITY
Sentinel Dual can be used in a tower or rack format, by simply turning the display and adding the supplied handles or optional runners.

REDUCED RUNNING COSTS
The UPS is highly flexible and easy to configure. Programmable functions can be set via software or manually via the front display panel. Sentinel Dual can be configured in the following operating modes:

  • ONLINE: maximum load protection and output voltage waveform quality;
  • ECO Mode: to increase efficiency (up to to 98%); allows you to select LINE INTERACTIVE technology;
  • SMART ACTIVE: the UPS automatically decides the operating mode based on the mains power quality;
  • STANDBY OFF: the UPS can be selected to function only when the mains power supply fails (emergency only mode);
  • Frequency Converter: operation (50 or 60 Hz).

ADVANCED COMMUNICATIONS
Sentinel Dual offers maximum flexibility for integration with all types of communication systems.

  • Multi-platform communication for all operating systems and network environments: PowerShield3 supervision and shutdown software for Windows operating systems 11, 10, 8, Server 2022, 2019, 2016 and previous versions, Windows Server Virtualization Hyper-V, macOS, Linux, Citrix XenServer, and other Unix operating systems;
  • UPS Tools configuration and customization software supplied as standard;
    • RS232 serial port and optoisolated contacts;
    • USB port;
    • Slot for communications boards such as Modbus/Jbus, TCP/IP-SNMP and relay contacts.

EMERGENCY FUNCTION
This configuration ensures the operation of emergency systems that must be supplied in the event of a mains power failure, such as emergency lighting, fire detection/extinguishing systems and alarms.
When the mains power supply fails, the inverter begins powering the loads with a progressive start up (Soft Start) in order to prevent overload.
Sentinel Dual is compliant for installation in medium-voltage transformer rooms in accordance with applicable legislation, for the power supply with reserve charge of medium-voltage coils.

HIGH-QUALITY OUTPUT VOLTAGE

  • Even with non-linear loads (IT loads with a crest factor of up to 3:1);
  • High short circuit current on bypass;
  • High overload capacity: 150% by inverter (even with mains failure);
  • Filtered, stabilised and reliable voltage (ON LINE double conversion technology (VFI compliant with EN62040-3) with filters for the suppression of atmospheric disturbances;
  • Power factor correction: UPS input power factor close to 1 and sinusoidal current uptake.

HIGH BATTERY RELIABILITY

  • Automatic and manual battery test;
  • Batteries are user replaceable without switching off equipment and without interruption to the load (Hot Swap);
  • Unlimited extendible runtime using matching battery cabinets.

LOW NOISE LEVEL
Thanks to the use of high-frequency components and load-based fan speed control, the noise produced by the UPS is less than 40 dBA.

OTHER FEATURES

  • The output voltage can be selected via software (220/230/240 V);
  • Auto-restart when mains power is restored (programmable via software);
  • STANDBY ON bypass: when the machine is switched off, it automatically goes into bypass and battery charge mode;
  • Minimum load switch-off;
  • Battery discharge warning;
  • Start-up delay;
  • Total microprocessor control;
  • Automatic bypass without interruption;
  • Status, measurements, and alarms are available on standard backlit display;
  • UPS firmware updating via PC;
  • Input protection via resettable thermal switch (versions up to 1500 VA);
  • Backfeed protection standard: to prevent energy from being fed back to the network;
  • Manual switching to bypass.
