HITEC PowerPRO3600
PowerPRO3600 combines no-break UPS, kinetic energy storage and standby generation in one system. With up to 3600 kVA per machine the whole facility – including mechanical and motor loads – can be supplied with fewer machines.
- Large data centres and industrial plants
- Sites where 100 % of the load must be no-break
- Space-constrained projects (HITEC states 40–60 % less space than static UPS)

Technology
How it works
The energy store has two elements: an Energy Transfer Module (ETM) spinning with the generator at 1500 rpm (50 Hz), and a low-speed flywheel at about 2900 rpm. According to HITEC the lower speed allows extended maintenance intervals.
Energy Storage Optimization (ESO) reduces flywheel speed during extended partial load and restores it as load increases. Diesel Start Delay (DSD) prevents unnecessary engine starts.
The modules can work independently: engine and generator can run as a conventional genset with storage disconnected, and generator, ETM and flywheel can run as a rotary UPS while the engine is in maintenance.
Application
Where it fits
- Large data centres and industrial plants
- Sites where 100 % of the load must be no-break
- Space-constrained projects (HITEC states 40–60 % less space than static UPS)
Versions and options
- Low and medium voltage
- Project-specific solutions
- Emission-optimised engines (EPA/TA-Luft)
Service
Operation and maintenance
The free-wheel clutch is self-lubricating and low-maintenance, and there are no batteries to replace every 3–5 years. HITEC offers remote monitoring and a 24/7 helpdesk.
A rotary plant should always be load-tested at commissioning – stepped load, utility failures and transfer to engine.
