monitoring by Digibat (calculation of real
backup time and remaining battery life) and block by
block monitoring

Monitoring and communication possibilities via
networks and the web with preventive maintenance (Life
Cycle monitoring)

Low TCO due to an optimised environment (cables,
protection, genset compatibility), small footprint, high
efficiency and monitoring of multiple UPS units using
Enterprise Power Manager software
The culmination of long experience
The new range of Galaxy 5000 three-phase UPSs, from 20 to 120 kVA, are the result of over 40 years of
experience at MGE UPS SYSTEMS, the leading firm in complete, high-quality solutions for electrical energy. It
combines both innovation and the reliability characteristic of the Galaxy ranges.
Galaxy 5000 uses sixpack IGBT modules and has fewer components and connections.
The result is high performance in a compact package offering easy access through the front to all components
for simple maintenance. Compactness is enhanced by placing the sealed lead-acid batteries in the UPS
cabinets up to 80 kVA.
The modular design means customised solutions become standard procedure and can be adapted to changes
in the installation through parallel connection of up to four UPS units with redundancy if necessary, for very
high availability.
Galaxy 5000 is part of an overall approach (expert advice, design studies and audits, complete hardware
solutions, state-of-the-art services) that is the trademark of MGE UPS SYSTEMS.
It can adapt to a wide array of installation architectures to precisely meet your needs. It can also be combined
with other protection products from MGE UPS SYSTEMS such as the STS, synchronisation modules,
intelligent PDUs, etc.
