This case study specifically looks at the Toshiba 1600EP 22kVA UPS. A new customer reached out to our team after their UPS failed to carry the critical power load. Their Toshiba 1600EP 22kVA UPS system is 9 years old and has not had regular preventive maintenance. Product Toshiba 1600EP 22kVA UPS Application Radio Communications Synopsis The business recently conducted a generator test, which included a load test on their 9-year-old Toshiba 1600EP 22kVA UPS system. When the UPS system was unable to carry the load, the on-site generator technician reported a burnt smell. Our team was contacted for further inspection. Preliminary Actions A Critical Power Professional™ (CPP™) was dispatched to the site where the CPP found older batteries installed in the unit, along with inductor failure and lack of capacitor maintenance. Resolution After in-depth troubleshooting and pricing repair costs, it was determined that the most cost-effective and reliable solution to the customer would be a full system replacement. A full system replacement would come with a one-year manufacturer warranty, newer and more efficient technology, and the option of going with a modular unit for better future scalability and redundancy. Root Cause Some businesses often choose deferred maintenance as part of cost saving efforts. Unfortunately, this can lead to larger out-of-pocket expenses in the future. In this scenario, it is reasonable to expect that the customer would have extended the life of their UPS system by at least 5 years with proper maintenance, lowering the overall cost of ownership.
