Caltrans approved Ruggedized Traffic BBS
The Marathon Power Ruggedized Traffic UPS series are maximum performance systems suitable for a wide range of transportation applications and extreme temperature environments. Designed for extended run-times, these units also feature temperature compensated charging to maximize battery life in harsh environments.

Ruggedized Traffic BBS
The 650VA and 1100VA are compact models equipped with a 24VDC bus that is designed for todays modern traffic cabinets and smaller loads that are prevalent with the use of LED signal lighting. The units are contained in a rugged, low profile 2U, rack- or shelf-mount chassis and have a 4-line LCD panel to display various data, parameters and settings. There is also a 12 amp internal charger to ensure that larger battery strings are recharged in an appropriate amount of time.

Supercapacitor UPS
The system is designed to provide short-term backup to sensitive loads in applications that either need to ride-through voltage sags and momentary power outages or simply bridge the startup of a generator. Since most power interruptions (87%) last no more than 1 second according to the Electric Power research Institute, there is seldom a need for long-term storage technology such as batteries. Targeted specifically for applications that are sensitive to power disturbances lasting a few cycles to around one minute.
