introduction of Pulsar UPS
benefits
Network servers and data are very sensitive to
electrical disturbances of all types including out-
ages, brownout, voltage sags, interference, etc.
The origins of disturbances also vary, ranging from
atmospheric phenomena such as lightning or frost,
to near-by devices generating interference such as
elevators, copiers and machine-tools, not to men-
tion human errors such as the accidental pulling
out of power cords or tripping of circuit breakers.
The consequences of disturbances on computer
systems range from damage to hardware (power
supplies, hard disks) to the loss of data.
Pulsar ESV+ has been specially designed to pro-
tect network servers and all other connected
devices that are sensitive to electrical distur-
bances. Pulsar ESV+ adds fault-tolerance to the
power source supplying your server.
Pulsar ESV+ is designed as a compact unit that
silently protects your electrical devices. It may be
installed under or on the desktop with little loss of
deskspace. It may be also installed in a rack (see
options, below).
Because of its backup battery, Pulsar ESV+ pro-
tects your system for several minutes (see the
"characteristics" section) in the event of a power
failure. A built-in filtering system protects connect-
ed devices from line interference. Finally, to
counter voltage sags or spikes, Pulsar ESV+ uses
voltage compensation circuits ("booster" and
"fader" modes) to guarantee a stable supply of
clean power.
As standard, Pulsar ESV+ offers the PowerShare
function that was previously available only on large
UPSs. Power outputs may be remotely controlled,
thus making possible sequential start-ups of vari-
ous devices, selective load shedding in the event
of an overload and priority management near the
end of battery power to protect the most sensitive
load.
rack installation kit: this kit is used to install
Pulsar ESV in a 19-inch rack. The kit is per-
formed to receive two Pulsar ESV+, offering there-
fore up to 2800VA of power supply;
UM Sensor environment measurement unit:
compatible with SNMP, this unit measures the tem-
perature and the relative humidity in the room
where the Pulsar ESV+ is installed. Eight relay
contacts are provided to transmit signals to an
administration platform.
SNMP administration: MGE UPS SYSTEMS
has the most complete offering for the administra-
tion of a group of UPSs using the SNMP protocol
with different network-connection modules (UM
Link adaptor or proxy UM Agent software), super-
vision modules (dedicated software under
Windows UM View or application for NMS plat-
forms such as HP OpenView or Novell NMS) and
a file-closing module (UM Client). The
MGE UPS SYSTEMS offering complies with RFC
1628 specifications (IETF) and was certified by the
InterWorking Labs during the Test Summit in June
1994;
SNMP card: this card, inserted into your unit,
makes your UPS SNMP-compatible in any envi-
ronment;
status information card: this option provides
you with 3 data elements on volt free contact:
operating on battery, low battery warning, operat-
ing on utility power.
Contact your dealer for further information on
these options.

Pulsar ESV+ offers a number of functions and
characteristics intended to simplify power manage-
ment:
automatic battery test carried out periodically. In
the event of a fault, a LED provides enough
advance warning for battery replacement;
LEDs on the front signalling all types of faults
and alarms;
bargraph continuously indicating the battery
charge level or the computer-application load level;
environment friendly: all components are recy-
clable and an electronic power-saver device
reduces consumption if the UPS is not active for a
period exceeding five minutes;
Pulsar ESV+ incluses user-replaceable batter-
ies, no need to power off connected equipments to
replace them;
ESV Driver software is part of our CD-ROM
(*).
It lets you edit the default parameters of Pulsar to
ideally match your requirements;
Pusar ESV+ is Plug and Play: its installation on
Windows 95 is fully automatic;
advanced operation and monitoring of Pulsar
are achieved by means of the Solution-Pac
CD-ROM included in your package. To learn more
about all the advanced features offered (system
shutdown, remote monitoring, SNMP administra-
tion,…) please view the navigator tool of the CD-
ROM;
fax/modem/Internet protection is built-in to
ensure safe data transmission.
options
warranty extension up to four years: the stan-
dard two-year guarantee may, in certain countries,
be extended to four years to ensure total peace of
mind;
battery extension module: Pulsar EB 22XLA
battery extension modules lengthen the battery
backup time of Pulsar ESV 22+ to meet your
requirements;
