UPS & STANDBY POWER
Unravelling the uncertainty of UPS System efficiency - Risk and Reward Avoid market confusion and understand the risks and rewards of the latest generation of data centre power protection.
Borri has gone against the grain of other UPS manufacturers and continued to invest in transformer based UPS research and development. The company has been the mastermind behind some of the greatest advancements in transformer based UPS technology to date and is proud to boast that its three phase UPS systems deliver over 95% efficiency. A mere 1% lower than a class leading transformer less UPS unit.
hen it comes to choosing the correct UPS solution for the data centre, one of the first questions that needs to be answered is; how critical is the load? Aligned to this, data centre managers also need to consider the financial impact that any loss of power will have on the business and question whether it is worth taking any risks at all?

Once the level of tolerable risk is established, discussions can then be moved onto efficiency. Placing efficiency before power protection considerations only leads to misguided decisions and can extend risk levels that back fire, leaving data centre managers with substantial costs in downtime and lost business. Of course, Borri is aware of the industry pressures to achieve greater efficiency and understands that for some data centre operators this may be their top priority. However,
the
company will always caution its customers about the compromises they are choosing to take when opting for a maximum efficiency UPS solution. Typically it is within the smaller data facilities that the highest levels of risk are willing to be taken in favour of gaining high efficiency.

addition to the efficiency prerequisite and to satisfy further demands for smaller, lighter and more aesthetically pleasing UPS systems, has recently introduced
With such a small differentiation in efficiency Borri The Primacy – a
transformer free 60 – 100kVA UPS unit, which is capable of delivering 99.5% efficiency from 50% load and above running in Ultra High Efficiency (UHE) mode and has an impressive footprint of just 0.4sqm
UPS resilience will always be top priority for
Borri, which is why its technologies have all been designed with highest levels of power protection as their primary function. Even when running in true online double conversion mode, the Primacy can still deliver 96% efficiency. In larger data centre facilities, back-up power systems now not only have to deliver reliable power protection but also be efficient and flexible. Where once a traditional transformer-based UPS
In
system, known for being the ultimate power protection insurance policy, would be the most inefficient solution, achieving in many installations between 60-80% efficiency at best, advancements in technology mean that these can now achieve over 95% efficiency at part loads.

gain, the ultimate levels of protection that a transformer based UPS system delivers should be the first choice for any critical data centre facility. Is it worth compromising to achieve just one more percent? Power protection must always come first and with Borri, businesses can achieve the best of both worlds.
