APC Galaxy VX Data Centre UPS 250–500 kVA
The APC Galaxy VX is Schneider Electric's flagship three-phase online double-conversion UPS for large data centres, mission-critical facilities, and high-density industrial power conditioning applications, available from 250 kVA to 500 kVA in a single frame with a transformerless design that achieves up to 97% efficiency at double conversion — among the highest in its class globally. The Galaxy VX's lithium-ion battery option reduces battery footprint by up to 50% compared to VRLA, cuts battery replacement labour significantly, and extends battery service life to 10+ years — a compelling total cost of ownership advantage for facilities planning 20-year operational horizons. Its modular architecture allows N+1 redundancy to be achieved within a single frame, eliminating the cost and complexity of parallel UPS systems for many applications.
The Galaxy VX is rated for 480 V, 400 V, and 480/208 V delta-wye configurations and features a 1.0 output power factor, delivering the full kVA rating as usable kW — critical for matching modern IT power supply loads that operate near unity power factor. The built-in Active Power Factor Correction (APFC) input stage maintains input power factor above 0.99, reducing the generator capacity required for backup power — a significant saving on large Saudi data centre projects where diesel generator sets cost SAR 500+ per kVA. Galaxy VX integrates natively with Schneider's EcoStruxure IT data centre management platform, providing real-time power chain visibility from utility entry to rack PDU level.
Saudi Arabia's accelerating hyperscale data centre construction — driven by NEOM's cloud infrastructure requirements, the Public Investment Fund's data sovereignty mandates, and CITC's data localisation regulations — makes the Galaxy VX the critical path UPS for facilities being built by STC, Mobily, and international cloud providers entering the Kingdom. The Saudi ARAMCO data centre expansion at Dhahran and the Ma'aden digital transformation programme at Wa'ad Al-Shamal also specify Galaxy VX-class UPS systems for tier-3 and tier-4 power protection infrastructure.
Razz Middle East works as a strategic partner for large Galaxy VX deployments, providing pre-sales power chain design, tendering, supply, installation coordination, commissioning, and long-term service contracts. Our engineers are trained by Schneider Electric on Galaxy VX battery management, bypass procedures, and EcoStruxure IT integration for Saudi and GCC projects.

Key Features & Benefits
- 97% double-conversion efficiency and 99% ECO mode reduce annual UPS energy losses by up to 40% versus legacy 94% efficient designs — saving hundreds of thousands of SAR per year on large data centre facilities.
- Lithium-ion battery option reduces battery weight by 60%, floor space by 50%, and extends service life to 10+ years, dramatically cutting 20-year total cost of ownership versus VRLA battery systems.
- 1.0 output power factor means the full kVA nameplate rating is available as usable kW, matching the near-unity power factor of modern server power supplies without overloading the UPS.
- Built-in APFC input stage maintains input power factor above 0.99, reducing required generator set kVA by up to 20% — a significant capital saving on Saudi data centre backup power infrastructure.
- Modular redundancy within a single frame achieves N+1 availability without parallel UPS systems, reducing single points of failure and simplifying UPS topology for mid-size data halls.
- EcoStruxure IT native integration provides full power chain visibility from utility entry to rack PDU, enabling data-driven capacity planning and predictive battery replacement scheduling.
- IEC 62040-3 VFI-SS-111 classification confirms complete output voltage and frequency independence from input — the highest UPS performance class, meeting Tier III and IV data centre specifications.
Industrial Applications in Saudi Arabia
- Hyperscale data centre power conditioning for STC, Mobily, and international cloud providers building Saudi data sovereignty facilities under CITC data localisation regulations in Riyadh and Jeddah.
- NEOM cloud and smart city infrastructure UPS backbone, where lithium-ion Galaxy VX systems provide the compact, high-efficiency power protection required in the constrained plant room spaces of the linear city.
- Saudi ARAMCO data centre expansion at Dhahran, where tier-3 power protection for critical oilfield management systems requires VFI-class UPS with proven reliability at scale.
- Public Investment Fund (PIF) digital infrastructure projects requiring data sovereign power conditioning to Saudi cybersecurity standards and NCA technical requirements.
- Ma'aden digital transformation programme server infrastructure at Wa'ad Al-Shamal, where remote location power quality justifies high-efficiency double-conversion UPS to reduce generator fuel consumption.
- National Command and Control Centre facilities and Ministry of Interior critical infrastructure, where tier-4 power availability requires multiple Galaxy VX units in parallel redundant configuration.
- Hyperscale colocation facility UPS power chains in King Abdulaziz City for Science and Technology and university research computing centres across the Kingdom.
