The New No-Break ™ DC UPS SR500HI 500W is designed to provide DC power to lead-acid batteries for critical backup applications from 12V to 48VDC. The No-Break ™ range of DC UPS systems maximise the integrity of standby battery installations, whilst optimising the life and availability of backup batteries.
A built-in Low Voltage Disconnect (LVD) will protect the battery from over-discharge after extended periods of backup operation when AC power has failed. The standalone unit comes with a standard remote battery temperature sensor (1.7m lead) for accurate charge voltage compensation.
Our range of SRHI DC UPS 100W-750W models have relay alarms for monitoring battery status, mains, PSU failure parameters and activation of BCT (battery condition test). The new SR500HI & SR750HI models have improved their thermal reliability with two fans relocated to dissipate heat more effectively and increase life span of critical components such as capacitors, shunts, and transformers.
The unit comes with a standard input voltage of 180-264VAC but it can be easily customised to 88-132VAC for the American market. It can also be used as a DC-DC converter, for more information about this application please contact our team of engineers at sales@heliosps.co.nz

FAQ
- Why is Helios Power Solutions SR No-Break ; DC charger recommended by consultants for critical applications?
Our No-Break ™ DC chargers have been designed for industrial use and have over twenty years of proven reliable operations. In addition, the chargers have many outstanding features such as fault alarms, LED fault alarm codes, battery detection, low voltage disconnect circuitry, automatic battery condition testing, communication options and can be connected to the battery permanently due to the precise temperature-compensated voltage control.
- Why should we use a SR No-Break; as opposed to a normal float charger?
The No-Break ™ DC UPS has many features which a normal float charger does not, these including:
- Precise alarm indication for mains or DC faults
- Overcurrent protection on the battery circuit
- Battery presence checking
- Temperature-compensated charging
- Low voltage disconnect circuitry to prevent deep discharge of the battery
- Independent charge current limit
- Automatic battery condition testing
- Can I use the SR No-Break DC UPS without a battery?
No, the No-Break ™DC UPS is designed to operate with a battery connected and instability may result if there is no battery connected. If you wanted to do this then it is advisable to use a standard two-terminal DC power supply SR500HL
- Why is the battery negative separate from the load negative in the SR No-Break DC UPS?
This is done to implement two of the features of the No-Break ™ UPS/charger. There is an “electronic circuit breaker” fitted between the battery negative and load negative terminals to provide the battery overcurrent protection. The separate battery circuit also allows for independent control of the charging current when required.
- Can I connect the battery directly to the load terminals when using SR No-Break DC UPS?
No, it would nullify all the features of using the No-Break ™DC design and provide false alarm signals from the relays. If you wanted to do this, then it is advisable to use a standard two-terminal float charger, with or without alarms.
- When does the SR No-Break system disconnect to protect deep discharge of the battery?
At approximately 1.67 volts per 2V (nominal) cell, so for a 12V system the disconnect voltage is set at 10V.
History
Helios Power Solutions has been manufacturing the SR No-Break Series (100W-750 DC UPS) for more than 40 years in Auckland – New Zealand. The No-Break ™ DC UPS series has evolved with new technologies and most important, our customer’s feedback.
All the functionality and durability has been retained with a more modern and easier to understand range of products being developed.
Form factor and connectivity remains the same, so they will fit into the slots occupied by the old range – the legend continues!
