Singapore :   Fuji Electric was awarded the Frost & Sullivan 2014 Best Practices Awards for the uninterruptible power supply systems (UPS) category. The awards ceremony was held in Singapore on October 16, 2014, at the Marina Bay Sands Expo & Convention Center. Frost & Sullivan, a leading global research organization, selected Fuji Electric for the effectiveness of its product strategy and execution, competitive differentiation, price/performance value and customer purchase experience.

In many parts of Asia, the need to improve power quality and reliability is paramount. With the increase in the number of data centers due to the rise in development of cloud-based services, the UPS plays a key role in ensuring power stability.

Fuji Electric’s newest 7000HX-T4 large capacity UPS, manufactured in Fuji Electric Manufacturing (Thailand) Co., Ltd., was created to support Asia’s economic and industrial growth. Featuring the new, proprietary 3-level conversion circuitry, switching and filtering losses are significantly reduced to bring about a conversion efficiency of 96.5% – far superior to the industry standard of 94%.

Designed for businesses facing space constraints and power stability in the region, the 7000HX-T4 occupies 35% less space than other conventional models due to the transformer-less design. Along with the ability to allow parallel operation of up to eight units running alongside a redundancy operating system, the 7000HX-T4 significantly improves energy reliability to ensure optimal operations.
