Stockholm, 16 March 2026 – Vertiv (NYSE: VRT), a global leader in critical digital infrastructure, today introduces the Vertiv™ PowerUPS 6000 Industrial. This uninterruptible power supply (UPS) system is engineered to provide reliable power protection for commercial and industrial (C&I) environments. The solution supports operations across sectors such as manufacturing, transportation, oil and gas, pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, packaging and steel.
“Traditional UPS systems aren’t designed to withstand the electrical instability, high temperatures and contamination commonly found in industrial settings. The Vertiv PowerUPS 6000 Industrial is built for modern digital industrial systems and remains reliable in harsh conditions with power fluctuations—on manufacturing floors, at refineries and along production lines,” says Greg Funk, Vice President of Power Solutions at Vertiv.
The Vertiv PowerUPS 6000 Industrial carries an IP42 rating, meaning it tolerates dust, moisture and ambient temperatures up to 50 °C. The UPS protects essential industrial control systems such as PLCs and SCADA, networking equipment and production-line automation, ensuring continuous operation where dependable power is mission-critical.
The system is housed in a compact cabinet designed for installations where space is limited. Front-access installation and operation simplify commissioning, maintenance and service. Vertiv PowerUPS 6000 Industrial is energy-efficient, delivering up to 97% efficiency in normal mode and up to 99% in ECO mode. It is compatible with multiple battery chemistries—ventilated lead-acid, nickel-cadmium and lithium-ion—to match varying runtime requirements. The UPS tolerates wide input voltage variations (from -40% to +25%) while providing clean, low-distortion power to protect downstream equipment. Parallelable configurations increase capacity and redundancy. Electronics are protected against dust, moisture and corrosion. The system is certified to applicable European standards including EN 50121 and EN 50171 and is tailored for critical industrial applications.

Industrial infrastructure overview
Vertiv’s PowerUPS 6000 Industrial is purpose-built to deliver stable, secure power in industrial environments where standard UPS solutions often fall short. Designed for digital industrial infrastructure, it protects critical components such as PLCs, SCADA platforms, industrial automation systems, networking equipment and factory control systems.
As industrial environments become more digitalized—integrating edge datacenters, smart manufacturing platforms and AI-driven analytics—stable power becomes a foundational requirement. Production systems, robotics, IoT devices and automation platforms depend on continuous, disturbance-free electricity to maintain uptime and data integrity.
The PowerUPS 6000 Industrial targets demanding sectors including manufacturing, transportation, oil and gas, pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, packaging and steel, where even brief outages can trigger production losses. With IP42 protection, the unit performs reliably in dusty, humid or hot conditions and withstands electrical disturbances common on factory floors.
Handling voltage swings from -40% to +25%, the system provides low-disturbance output for sensitive equipment. High energy efficiency—up to 97% in normal operation and up to 99% in ECO mode—reduces operating costs while supporting multiple battery types including lead-acid, nickel-cadmium and lithium-ion to meet diverse runtime needs.
Context for Nordic industrial IT
In the Nordic region and across Europe, industrial digital transformation is driven by investments in smart manufacturing, industrial automation, IoT and data-driven production. Edge computing, secure connectivity and resilient power systems are essential components of this transition.
Industrial organizations now rely on advanced monitoring and control technologies—PLC controllers, SCADA platforms, industrial networking and edge compute nodes. Industrial-grade UPS systems are therefore a critical element to ensure continuous operation and protect vital infrastructure and processes.
Vertiv supplies infrastructure solutions for datacenters, telecom networks, industrial sites and other critical digital environments worldwide, supporting reliable power delivery and thermal management for enterprise and industrial customers.
