Battery UPS Replacement

There are several locations at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Roybal Campus, that require replacement of Life Safety and Laboratory uninterruptible power supplies (UPSs). These systems are at or nearing the end of service life as indicated by quarterly preventative maintenance testing reports and market research performed for replacement parts. Several UPS units are considered to be Life Safety, but do not conform to UL 924 or NFPA 101 requirements. These systems will require replacements, as they serve critical data, emergency, life safety, laboratory and general-purpose loads within the facility. Having an inappropriate UPS will directly affect the expected runtime and the ability to serve facility loads during an unplanned power outage.

ESTIMATED PRICE RANGE: Between $1,000,000 and $5,000,000
