Securing Critical Data: A Design House‘s UPS Solution from SANYO DENKI

A Case Study of a Design House

Imagine losing your critical data due to a power outage. That’s what almost happened to one of the leading system design houses in the industry. The company had a close call when a natural disaster caused a power outage that corrupted some of its servers. Luckily, they had a backup server that saved their data from being lost. However, they realized that their power backup solution was not reliable enough to protect their data from future disasters.

A Concerning Maintenance Situation

The company has repeatedly added servers and peripheral equipment in response to the demands of the site. As a result, dozens of UPS from multiple manufacturers were installed. However, when they reviewed the entire server room, they realized that there was no control over load factor, battery life, etc., and that the reliability level of the UPS was uneven. They also never monitor the state of the power supply. This meant that their UPS units could fail at any time, leaving their servers vulnerable to power outages or instability.

The Customer's Requirement for UPS:

• Increased power supply reliability

• Guaranteed battery operation in the event of a power outage

• Corporate policy requires reduced power consumption

UPS with High Reliability

The company decided to review their entire server room’s UPS and rebuild a reliable and flexible power supply system with SANYO DENKI’s online UPS, SANUPS A11N series. It uses a double conversion control method that prevents voltage dip during outages. There is zero worry that the operation of the load will stop due to voltage fluctuations.

SANUPS A11N is stable and highly reliable as it is used in communication systems and financial systems that require high reliability. 

Automatic Battery Check for Less Maintenance

SANYO DENKI’s UPS also has an automatic battery check function that performs regular checks and reports on the battery status. This prevents the absurd situation of running out of battery when needed. In addition, it has SANUPS SOFTWARE that monitors the state of the power supply at all times and alerts the administrator in case of any problem. This improves the reliability and manageability of the entire system, including the network and server.

UPS with High-Power and High-Efficiency

SANUPS A11N also has an output power factor of 0.9, which means it can handle high-power devices more efficiently than other UPS units with lower output power factors. It also has a high-efficiency rate of 95.1%, which reduces the power consumption of the entire server room. 

By SANYO DENKI’s support and solution, the company was able to realize a power backup solution that has a good balance of cost and reliability, and protect their critical data from any unexpected power outage or trouble.
