ALC Customers are advised that ASX will be conducting its scheduled annual maintenance on the Diesel Rotary Un-interruptible Power Supply (DRUPS) systems at the ALC.  Due to the extent of the maintenance, the maintenance operations will be conducted over three weekends:

• DRUPS A Sunday 7th July
• DRUPS B Sunday 14th July
• DRUPS C Sunday 21st July

The maintenance operations are due to start at 06:00 and are scheduled to be completed by 18:00 on each day.

The maintenance will be performed on a single DRUPS at a time and will require each DRUPS to be placed into maintenance bypass mode.  Each rack has dual power rails and during this time one power rail in each rack will be running off mains power, therefore the second power rail will be maintained in normal operation mode. In the event of a power outage, power will be lost to one power rail only.

Whilst we are anticipating that there will be no service interruptions, we recommend that a Static Transfer Switch (STS) be installed if you have single corded hardware.

There is a low risk associated with this service.

ASX will be working closely with its service engineers for the duration of the maintenance.

ALC access and other services will continue as per normal procedures. If you have any questions regarding this maintenance please contact Customer Technical Support.
