About ShieldVolt — Intelligent Power Protection Since 2007

Founded in Helsinki, Finland, ShieldVolt designs and manufactures industrial UPS and power supply systems that combine modular architecture with native IIoT connectivity — serving critical infrastructure across 55+ countries.

Our Story

ShieldVolt was founded in 2007 by a team of power electronics engineers who saw an opportunity to rethink industrial UPS design for the connected factory era. While legacy UPS manufacturers treated connectivity as an afterthought, ShieldVolt embedded IIoT interfaces — Modbus TCP, SNMP v3, and MQTT — into the core platform architecture from the very first product generation.

Today, with over 580 employees and 800,000+ units deployed worldwide, we continue to push the boundary between power hardware and intelligent software — delivering UPS systems that do not just protect loads, but actively monitor, predict, and optimize power infrastructure performance in real time.

Engineering Philosophy

Three principles guide every ShieldVolt product from R&D concept through to volume manufacturing and field deployment.

Modular by Design

Every ShieldVolt UPS is built on a modular platform with hot-swappable power modules, control units, and battery strings. Modularity reduces mean time to repair, enables pay-as-you-grow capacity expansion, and eliminates single points of failure in critical power paths.

Connected from Birth

IIoT connectivity is not a retrofit option — it is embedded in our hardware platform. Native Modbus TCP, SNMP v3, and MQTT interfaces ship standard in every unit, enabling real-time monitoring, predictive analytics, and fleet management without middleware.

Validated Under Stress

We test beyond the specification. Our in-house test laboratory performs full load bank testing, thermal cycling from -25°C to +70°C, 200% short-circuit withstand, and 10,000-cycle module insertion testing on every product family before production release.

Certifications & Compliance

ShieldVolt products carry the certifications engineers need to specify with confidence in any regulated market.
