We’ve created this guide to assist in selecting the correct UPS for a range of typical tubular motors. From the Nm (torque) reading on your motor, select the corresponding UPS from the list below. If your torque isn’t specified then use the next highest.
Motor Torque (Nm) |
Power Rating (W) |
Recommended UPS |
12 | 168 | VIS1000B |
20 | 178 | VIS1000B |
50 | 310 | VIS1000B |
60 | 310 | VIS1000B |
120 | 450 | VIS1000B |
150 | 500 | VIS2000B |
180 | 520 | VIS2000B |
230 | 870 | VIS2000B |
330 | 980 | VIS2000B |
500 | 1350 | VFI3000T |
Note this table is based on Eurodrive tubular motors from published information. Where conflicts have been identified we’ve used the worst case. There is allowances made for start up currents of a factor of 1.4.
Remember UPS can have some failings in door applications in that they switch to battery immediately following a power cut. This can drain the battery. To avoid this happening you will need to use the Power Inspired GATEWAY product.
