APC Smart-UPS
Ultra-high power density, On-Line power protection with scalable runtime options.
This Uninterrupted Power Supply line is built to be a durable backup power unit.
Scalable Power
One of the best selling products at Schneider Electric got a new look.
For these three lines of UPS, we created specific design distinctions between the premiere, top, & mid-level models.
My role was to create the new design language for the Smart UPS products, both the On-Line & Line Interactive products.

The Process
The Design
Of course there were design constraints. These were a few.
I. The bezel needed to be removable to replace batteries.
II. Bezel needed to be open enough
III. The HMI needed to fit within a very specific area.
IV. Use little to no single use plastics & use recyclable materials.
V. Needs to be scalable design language; there are currently 3 sizes of UPS but possibly larger ones in the future.
