PowerHouse Continuous Power Systems

PowerHouse

Active Power’s integrated continuous power systems are specifically designed to handle the demands of high tech facilities requiring the highest power integrity available. PowerHouse provides an ideal solution for maximizing up time, useable floor space and operational efficiency.

Designed to offer a highly flexible architecture to your constantly changing environment, PowerHouse is available in a series of standard formats and is constructed to be fully modular, enabling you to expand your infrastructure on demand. Space saving, unobtrusive and unmatched in efficiency, PowerHouse is ready and waiting to respond to the unexpected.

Containerized Backup Power Systems

Short on square footage? Want to maximize revenue generating floor-space within your facility? Need a fully operational system fast?

Active Power can build you the most compact, complete power system available. Your pre-fabricated plant room will be fully designed and customized to your specifications and outfitted with your choice of engines, switchgear and architecturally complementing finishes.

Off-site manufacturing ensures minimal disruption at your site and rapid commissioning once inspected by you and installed. The component options are endless and the containerized system can be placed in any number of areas around your site - the roof, redundant loading bays, secure compounds or even the parking area. Need to relocate? This system can be disconnected, transported to a new site, and be ready to go in a matter of hours.

Customer Focused Project Management

  1. Infrastructure Needs Assessment
    We work locally through our global network of mission critical infrastructure engineers and project managers to assess the power and cooling needs of your facility.
  2. Vetting & Validation
    Our teams of experienced application engineers use comprehensive assessments to vet and validate the most optimal solution that complements your business continuity plan.
  3. Alignment with Business Objectives
    Through continuous communication we ensure that our concept accurately aligns with the original needs assessment and your short-term and projected future business objectives.
  4. System Design
    We design your solution to ensure that all components are optimised to work together. Reliability, efficiency and cost are paramount in determining the correct match and interoperability between components.
  5. Deployment
    Our experienced group of project managers will work with you and your team to develop a timely deployment schedule with the least impact on your day to day business. We ensure that expectations are clearly defined through the deployment phase.
  6. Start-Up & Commissioning
    Once the system is deployed, we take it through a rigorous commissioning process to ensure the system is working to specification. Our engineers work closely with your team to make certain they are educated and trained on the successful operation of your system.
  7. Service, Support & Monitoring
    You can choose from a variety of comprehensive service and support offerings, tiered to match your organisation’s internal capabilities and requirements. Ensuring a reliable and efficient operation requires accurate monitoring which we offer as a hands-off remote monitoring service in our center, locally at your facility, or a combination of both.

PowerHouse Continuous Power System

GenStart

CSViewTM Monitoring Software

Your entire PowerCentre integrated continuous power system is monitored by Active Power’s CSView software and reported back to our service hubs on a continuous basis. CS View provides real time monitoring of critical telemetry points. Information is aggregated into an accurate picture of operations cycles and predictive analysis of the complete operational system. And the very best part of the whole solution? Confidence in knowing your critical infrastructure is completely managed.

GenSTART Starting Module

Every Active Power PowerCentre system incorporates a redundant engine starting system to complement the engine starter batteries. GenSTART guarantees maximum starting power with 1725 cold-cranking amps.

GenSTART is completely maintenance free and can start the system even if the starter batteries are disconnected or damaged, a further demonstration of the attention to detail that has gone into the design of this highly reliable continuous power system.
