Designers and developers of commercial and industrial buildings now have longer-lasting backup power solutions available from N1 Critical Technologies that are suitable for the whole building or select mission critical equipment.

N1 Critical Technologies sales engineers specialize in designing, installing and maintaining uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems using the latest, powerful, long-lasting lithium-ion batteries from several manufacturers.

The company’s technical advisors have access to the very best UPS makes and models available (from Eaton, GE and others) and come with more than 40 years of combined experience in developing industrial UPS systems, commercial UPS systems, UPS systems for server rooms, and whole-building UPS systems.

In addition to designing and installing large-scale, three-phase lithium-ion UPS systems, N1C was the first U.S. company to manufacture and offer a full line of single-phase lithium-based UPS systems for smaller applications, such as server racks, network closets and point-of-sale systems.

Whether needs are high power for a building-wide application, or low power for several pieces of critical equipment, the lithium-ion batteries used in N1C-branded and other designed systems have tremendous benefits.

They offer more energy capacity in a significantly smaller space, are lighter and come with a smaller carbon footprint than traditional lead acid UPS systems. Perhaps most importantly, lithium-ion batteries have both a longer shelf life and a longer backup runtime, which lowers overall cost of ownership for the UPS and powers and protects connected equipment for longer durations during power outages.

“As a team, we have an intimate knowledge of the specifications, capabilities, and service histories of the entire range of lithium-ion UPS products and systems available in the market,” said company co-founder and CEO Nate Ellsworth. “We leverage our practical experience and expertise when designing high-quality power backup systems to give customers the longest lasting, most affordable option available that will save them money, time and hassle over the long run.

“You will find our own single-phase UPS systems and large-scale lithium-ion UPS systems we designed in facilities of all types and sizes. People are starting to realize the many benefits of lithium-ion battery technology and we’re at the forefront of the shift in the marketplace toward the technology. N1C is truly disrupting the uninterruptible power supply industry.”

Clientele for N1 Critical has included data centers, financial institutions, medical clinics, hospitals, office complexes, call centers, telecom centers, universities, school systems, television and radio stations, marine shipboard applications and many others.

“As experts, we help you in bridging the gap between the articulated needs of your IT professionals and the economic constraints of efficiently running your business,” Ellsworth said. “We do this by advising you on how you can meet and even exceed the technical requirements that IT professionals desire and we do it most cost-effectively. Lithium-ion may cost a little more up front, but when you see the savings in money, maintenance and power saving over time, it becomes a no-brainer to make the switch to lithium-ion UPS systems.”

In the ideal conditions, the average life span of a lead acid UPS battery is 4-6 years. In comparison, the lifespan of lithium-ion battery is 10-15 years, and they can withstand even harsher operating environments without performance degradation.

That means less cooling requirements and fewer batter replacements over the life of the unit, reducing the burden of downtime and maintenance.

Lithium-ion batteries can also handle more than 1,000 discharges and recharges, more than triple what a lead acid battery can handle. A lighter and smaller battery also makes installation easier and versatile. Some customers may even regain valuable space in their server room or data closet with significantly smaller lithium-ion battery cabinets.

No matter your power needs, N1 Critical Technologies can design a lithium-ion Uninterruptible Power Supply solution for you!

Our new N1 Critical Lithium-Ion UPS systems have arrived, were installed and are working perfectly. So what do you do with the old lead-acid UPS system you’ve replaced? Find out about recycling options for your old equipment.

N1 Critical Technologies is putting a new charge in the backup electrical power industry with the introduction of its all new Lithium Ion-based uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems.

The Janesville, Wisconsin-based manufacturer has developed a growing set of UPS systems rated from 1KVA to 10KVA, which have expandable run-times of 12+ hours with additional battery packs.

The 13 models that make up the new L-Series and XL-Series use reliable and safety-tested batteries made with Lithium Iron Phosphate. N1 Critical’s battery chemistry is safer, more stable and provides superior thermal operation, allowing its UPS systems to run efficiently in more extreme environments (32º-140º vs. 32º to 104º for comparable lead acid systems).

With a 10-15-year expected operational life, they last up to three-times as long as the Valve Regulated Lead (VRLA) batteries they are designed to replace, while also using less space, energy and weighing 33 percent less.

“Lead acid-based UPS systems are on the way out, while Lithium Ion systems like ours are the future of backup power supplies,” said N1 Critical founder and Chief Executive Officer Nate Ellsworth. “The benefits of our products are many. They will save companies time, money and hassle from day one after the installation of our systems.”

Additionally, the batteries used in N1 Critical’s products can be discharged more than 1,000 times (vs about 400 discharges for lead-based batteries), while also recharging faster and more efficiently.

“Anyone installing our battery backup systems will appreciate their lighter weight and smaller footprint,” Ellsworth said, noting that the extra space gained from removing older and larger backup systems can be used for other critical building infrastructure. “Installers and users will also appreciate the lower energy use and longer run-times in the event of a power failure.”

Each model in both the L- and XL-Series features online double-conversion technology, which delivers a “clean” and steady supply of voltage to the appliances attached to the UPS, which is critical for sensitive (and often very expensive) equipment.

The models can be both rack- or tower-mounted, and all come standard with SNMP network interface cards and software to manage them remotely. Each has been ETL certified and independently tested to UL standards.

Perhaps best of all is the limited lifetime warranty on all electronic components and a 10-year warranty on batteries in the L- and XL-Series Lithium Ion UPS Systems. If a UPS fails, simply let N1 Critical Technologies know and a new unit will be on its way.

“With our competitive price-point, feature-rich units and wide selection, you simply cannot go wrong choosing an N1 Critical Technologies UPS product,” Ellsworth said. “These aren’t just going to be a game changer. They’re going to be an industry changer. The next generation of UPS systems are here now and are available from N1 Critical.”
