Product Overview
Eaton 9PX Marine Ship specific UPS is a high-performance dual conversion online uninterruptible power supply system designed specifically for maritime and marine engineering environments, with power coverage ranging from 1500VA to 3000VA. It uses advanced power electronics technology and robust mechanical design to ensure pure and stable power supply for critical equipment in harsh ship environments.
9PX Marine has passed the DNV-GL classification society type certification and is equipped with coated circuit boards that can withstand harsh conditions such as high temperature, high humidity, and salt spray. It is an ideal power supply guarantee for ship navigation systems, communication systems, bridge equipment, and small automation systems.
Core Technology and Reliability Design
1. Dual conversion online topology structure
9PX Marine adopts true dual conversion online technology (VFI) to continuously perform AC-DC-AC dual conversion on the input power supply, completely isolating power quality issues such as voltage fluctuations, frequency drift, and harmonic interference in the power grid. Even in situations where the input power supply is extremely unstable, the output always maintains a pure sine wave voltage and frequency.
Internal configuration of static bypass ensures seamless switching of load to bypass power supply in case of UPS internal failure or overload, maintaining continuous system operation. In addition, an optional maintenance bypass is available to facilitate the replacement of UPS hosts without interrupting the load power supply, greatly improving the maintainability of the system.
2. Adaptability to maritime environment
The ship and marine engineering environment have put forward strict requirements for electronic equipment:
Coated circuit board: All circuit boards are protected by a three proof coating, effectively resisting the erosion of salt spray, moisture, mold, and corrosive gases.
Wide temperature operation capability: The designed working temperature range is 0 to 40 ° C, suitable for different temperature environments such as engine rooms and deck control rooms.
Anti vibration and impact: The structural design meets the mechanical strength requirements of ship equipment, ensuring stable operation during navigation vibrations.
3. DNV-GL type certification
9PX Marine is one of the few UPS products that has obtained DNV-GL type certification. This certification means that the product has passed strict ship equipment testing, complies with ship design and construction specifications, and can be directly used in the power systems of various ships and offshore platforms.
Efficient performance and energy-saving design
1. Power factor=1 (VA=W)
9PX Marine is the first UPS of its kind to achieve an output power factor of 1. This means:
The 1500VA model can provide 1500W active power
The 3000VA model can provide 3000W active power
Compared to traditional UPS, 9PX Marine can provide 11% more active power, allowing users to carry more servers or equipment with the same VA rating, especially suitable for loads with lower input power factors.
2. Efficient operation mode
Online mode efficiency: up to 92.5%, maintaining excellent energy efficiency even in dual conversion mode.
Efficient mode efficiency: up to 97.5%, suitable for scenarios with low requirements for power quality and pursuit of ultimate energy conservation, automatic switching ensures load safety.
3. Energy Star certification
9PX Marine meets the Energy Star certification standards in the United States, achieving the highest energy efficiency level under typical load conditions, significantly reducing electricity consumption and air conditioning cooling costs, in line with modern ships' pursuit of green energy conservation.
4. Energy monitoring and management
9PX Marine is equipped with a graphical LCD display screen that can display in real-time:
Input/output voltage, frequency
Load power (kW), power factor
Battery status and remaining time
Energy consumption (kWh) data
Users can monitor the energy consumption of each controlled socket group through LCD or Eaton Intelligent Power software, accurately grasp the electricity usage situation, and provide data support for energy optimization.

Flexibility and manageability
1. Graphic LCD display screen
High definition graphic LCD provides intuitive UPS status and measurement information, displaying all key parameters on one screen. Users can configure in detail through the menu, such as output voltage, frequency, battery parameters, alarm thresholds, etc.
2. Multiple communication interfaces
Standard configuration: USB port, RS232 serial port
Remote control: remote power on/off terminal, remote power-off terminal, output relay dry contact
Expansion slot: 1 communication card slot, optional:
Network MS network management card (supports SNMP, web, email alerts)

3. Intelligent power management software
The Eaton Intelligent Power Software suite provides comprehensive UPS monitoring and management capabilities, supporting:
Automatic operating system secure shutdown
Seamless integration with mainstream virtualization platforms (VMware, Hyper-V)
Support cloud orchestration tools (such as OpenStack)
Remote centralized monitoring of multiple UPS systems
4. Hot swappable battery module
9PX Marine supports up to 4 External Battery Module (EBM) hot swappable extensions, allowing for online battery replacement without shutting down the load. The battery module automatically recognizes and the system automatically adjusts the charging parameters.
5. ABM ® Intelligent battery management
Eaton's patented ABM battery management technology adopts a three-stage charging method:
Stage 1: Constant current fast charging
Stage 2: Constant voltage absorption charging
Stage 3: Sleep/Float Charge Standby (Reduce Plate Corrosion)
Compared with traditional float charging methods, ABM technology can extend battery life by up to 50%. The system also has functions such as temperature compensation charging, automatic battery testing, and deep discharge protection to ensure that the battery is always in its optimal state.
