Sentinel Dual SDH uses true online double-conversion topology — the load is always powered through the inverter, providing complete isolation from all mains irregularities. Zero transfer time on mains failure.
SDH batteries can be replaced without powering down the UPS — connected equipment remains protected throughout battery maintenance. Batteries slide out from the front panel and can be replaced in minutes without tools.
The LCD panel rotates 90 degrees — displaying correctly in both rack (horizontal) and tower (vertical) orientations. Shows load %, battery %, estimated runtime, input/output voltage, and fault alarms.
Input power factor >0.98 means the SDH draws close to its true power rating in amps — minimising reactive current on building circuits, reducing cable sizing requirements, and enabling more UPS units per circuit breaker.
Optional Riello NetMan 208 network management card provides SNMP v1/v2c/v3, Modbus TCP, and web interface remote monitoring — compatible with standard DCIM platforms and building management systems.
SDH supports 150% overload for 10 seconds before transferring to bypass — providing headroom during load surge events such as server boot storms or storage spin-up without causing premature bypass.
The Riello Sentinel Dual SDH is Riello's primary single-phase online UPS for server room and IT rack applications, available from 1000VA to 3000VA in a 2U rack/tower form factor. Riello has manufactured professional UPS systems since 1982, and the SDH reflects decades of European data centre market experience.
The SDH's online double-conversion topology provides complete electrical isolation of connected equipment from the mains supply — all power passes through the rectifier, battery bank, and inverter stages continuously, eliminating all mains-borne power quality issues. Input power factor correction (>0.98) reduces the apparent power drawn from the building circuit.
Hot-swap front-accessible batteries are a practical differentiator — many competing units require UPS shutdown and significant disassembly for battery replacement. The SDH's tool-free battery replacement keeps the UPS operational and connected equipment protected throughout battery maintenance. The optional Riello NetMan 208 card adds full SNMP/web management compatible with standard NMS and DCIM platforms.
SDH 2U profile fits cleanly in 19-inch server cabinets alongside Dell PowerEdge, HPE ProLiant, or Lenovo ThinkSystem servers, providing online protection with minimal rack overhead.
NHS trusts use SDH for ward-level server rooms and clinical workstation power protection — hot-swap batteries enable maintenance during clinical hours without exposing medical IT to unprotected power.
High overload capacity and online isolation suit industrial control system servers and SCADA workstations where load surges and mains disturbances from motor drives are common.
Tower SDH models protect office server rooms and communications cabinets housing VoIP, CCTV, and access control systems — hot-swap batteries enable maintenance without business disruption.
