Custom UPS Solutions

Custom UPS Solutions

When your power requirements don’t fit an off-the-shelf UPS, you need a custom power package. Some projects come with specifications that seem impossible to meet — unusual environments, tight spaces, aging infrastructure, or performance requirements standard products just weren’t built for. If you’ve already looked and haven’t found a fit, that’s exactly where we come in.

At Power Solutions, we work with best-in-class manufacturers of UPS systems, DC power systems, batteries, enclosures, and power distribution and monitoring equipment. Our broad product line, direct access to manufacturer engineering and service groups, and vendor-neutral approach let us configure the right custom power package for your application — no matter how unusual the requirements.

How We Build a Custom Solution

We start by evaluating your project through a vendor-neutral lens: power sizing, runtime requirements, space constraints, and environmental factors. From there, we identify the best available components for the job and, when needed, modify off-the-shelf parts or bundle products from different manufacturers into a complete solution built around your specifications — not the other way around.

Once your solution is configured, our engineering team and manufacturer service groups handle installation, start-up, and ongoing service, giving you a single source from design through deployment. Complex projects — upgrades, technology refreshes, expansions, and consolidations — get the same level of engineering attention, backed by our engineering services for solutions that require it.

Applications We Design For

Custom power packages show up anywhere a standard UPS can’t meet the job. Common applications include:

• Remote edge computing and off-grid power systems
• Telecom networks, sensors, and monitoring equipment
• SCADA systems, pipelines, and transportation control systems
• Building security and emergency communications
• Mobile standby power
• Inspection, measurement, and point-of-sale systems
• Process control maintenance and testing
• Temporary power and plug-and-play retrofits
• Obsolete UPS replacement and backup power refresh
• Non-traditional data rooms and network closets

A few of these come up often enough that they’re worth a closer look.

Equipment Revitalization

Retrofit and refresh services are one of the clearest examples of what a custom approach can do. Instead of a full replacement, we update aging equipment with minimal cost and downtime. In many cases, a retrofit or refresh delivers what amounts to a new UPS or power system for roughly 35% of the cost of full replacement — without the extended downtime a new installation typically requires.

Rugged and Outdoor Applications

Delivering critical power in harsh climates or remote locations demands a specialized approach. We partner with manufacturers who focus specifically on these conditions, giving you a single source for a complete, ready-to-install solution — bundling a climate-controlled and monitored enclosure, a UPS engineered for extreme conditions, and maintenance-free batteries into one configured package.

This includes custom configured outdoor UPS systems, used for remote edge computing, telecom power, sensors and monitoring, and building security. Building one starts with three questions: your power requirement (load, voltage, connectivity), your runtime objective (which drives battery selection and, in turn, operating temperature range), and your environment (enclosure size, mounting, thermal management, and security features like police doors or access alarms). Our team can spec a fully custom outdoor UPS from your requirements, point you to a standard solution if one fits, or handle assembly and installation for a turn-key deployment.

Non-Traditional Spaces

As organizations grow, so does their dependence on reliable network connectivity — and on the network closets and data rooms that support it. We design all-in-one power and cooling solutions for non-traditional data room locations and network closets, temporary data rooms, and self-contained spaces where retrofitting cooling is expensive. Because these tucked-away spaces are often mission-critical, we help you centrally monitor and manage them with DCIM software, monitoring equipment, battery monitoring systems, and more.

Why Power Solutions

Our knowledgeable power experts, combined with an industry-leading breadth of product and service offerings, let Power Solutions deliver a power package engineered specifically around your requirements — not around what happens to be in stock.
