The new battery system promises improved reliability, reduced downtime, and significant cost savings for critical infrastructure applications, including data centers, healthcare, and industrial environments. ![Eaton Gen 3 Lithium-Ion Battery System open](https://www.storagereview.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/StorageReview-Eaton-Samsung_Lithium-ion-UPS-battery-system_Open-1024x1024.jpg) The Eaton Samsung Gen 3 system delivers compact energy storage and emergency backup power for uninterruptible power supplies (UPS). With lithium-ion batteries at its core, the system offers improved performance, longer operational life, and higher energy density than traditional lead-acid batteries — all in a smaller, lighter footprint. With the exponential growth of AI workloads and cloud applications, resilient, uninterrupted power is required. Lithium-ion batteries like this are essential due to their superior cycle life and ability to operate under varying loads. While the Gen 3 Lithium-Ion Battery System utilizes Samsung-manufactured batteries and components, the cabinet and control systems are designed and built by Eaton. ## **Eaton Gen 3 Lithium-Ion Battery System Features** The Gen 3 lithium-ion battery system introduces several features aimed at simplifying deployment and enhancing operational efficiency: - **Pre-Installed Batteries for Faster Setup**: Eaton’s Gen 3 system arrives fully equipped with pre-installed battery modules. This ready-to-deploy design minimizes installation time and reduces the risk of configuration errors. - **Internal Battery Management System (BMS)**: The system is powered via an internal BMS, supporting a DC-powered bus to eliminate the need for external AC power. This makes deployment simpler while maintaining robust monitoring capabilities. - **Performance Guarantee and Longevity**: Eaton guarantees the system’s performance for up to 12 years. A built-in data logger captures vital operational data, providing insights into alarm conditions, status updates, and long-term performance metrics. - **Support from Eaton’s Service Team**: Customers gain access to Eaton’s extensive service portfolio, ensuring that unique infrastructure needs are met with tailored maintenance, monitoring, and support. ![Eaton Gen 3 Lithium-Ion Battery System]() ## **Eaton Gen 3 Lithium-Ion Battery System Specifications** | **Specification** | **Samsung 128S Model** | **Samsung 136S Model** | | --- | --- | --- | | **Nominal Voltage** | 486 V | 517 V | | **Minimum Voltage (DC Under Voltage Trip Point)** | 384 V | 408 V | | **Float Voltage** | 538 V | 571 V | | **Capacity** | 67 Ah, 32.6 kWh | 67 Ah, 34.6 kWh | | **Dimensions (H x W x D)** | 87.1 in x 25.6 in x 20.6 in (2213 mm x 650 mm x 524 mm) | | | **Weight** | 1,118 lb (507 kg) | 1,160 lb (526 kg) | | **DC Cable Terminations** | 2-hole lugs (top entry only) | | | **Continuous Charge Current** | 22 A | | | **Operating Temperature Range** | 18 °C to 28 °C (64 °F to 82 °F) | | | **Safety Certifications** | UL® 1973, UL 9540 A Successfully Tested | | | **Shipping Certifications** | UN3480, Class 9, UN 38.3 | | Compared to conventional battery solutions, Eaton says their new Gen 3 system boasts significant physical footprint and weight reductions. This is crucial for space-limited environments like data centers. Specifically: - 40% smaller footprint and 60% lighter than lead-acid alternatives. - Capable of delivering megawatts of power in a flexible, modular configuration. - Reduced total cost of ownership (TCO) with lower maintenance and extended lifecycle benefits. ## **Eaton Gen 3 Lithium-Ion Battery System Availability** The Eaton Gen 3 lithium-ion battery system, with configurations tailored for specific customer applications, is available now.
