oOPTIMIZING UPS TOTAL COST OF OWNERSHIP IN DATA CENTERS
WHAT YOU’ LL FIND IN THIS WHITE PAPER
This white paper examines the key aspects of a UPS system which can impact the Total Cost of Ownership( TCO), covering:
• Energy Consumption,
• Failures / Downtimes,
• Maintenance,
• Infrastructure Evolution,
• Battery Management Costs,
• Grid Costs and End of Life.
In doing so, it demonstrates the importance of choosing a modular, scalable UPS system that offers the very best metrics when it comes to a variety of operating parameters and performance characteristics, where even a single percentage point difference in energy efficiency, for example, can translate into $ 100,000s of extra costs / savings over the lifetime of the system, depending on the solution selected.
In selecting a truly optimized modular and scalable UPS system – one which will deliver the best possible, energy-efficient performance over many years – data center owners / operators should prioritize the following attributes:
• high efficiency in VFI OnLine double conversion mode thanks to new SiC Technology to minimize the energy consumption;
• robustness and resiliency against failures and anomalous events in the infrastructure;
• front access and compactness for easy maintenance and repair and optimizing space utilization;
• remote control and predictive self-diagnostics to optimize the maintenance plan and operative lifetime;
• granular, modular architecture for easy and fast service and adaptability to load evolution; configurability to be adapted to existing infrastructures;
• advanced battery management and monitoring with the capability to interact with BMS of the battery system;
• smart grid function with FFR and peak shaving to optimize the interaction with renewable energy source;
• a high percentage of recyclable components and materials to optimize the end-of-life stage of the system. �
