Power management company Eaton will address the key concerns of data centre operators, including increasing efficiency without sacrificing uptime and achieving faster time to market, at the London DataCenterDynamics Converged conference and exhibition (DCD London), taking place between 19th – 20th November. At the conference, Eaton will present a paper discussing power resilience in data centres with a focus on the latest auto-adaptive power chain technologies. Additionally, the company will showcase its ability to provide comprehensive end-to-end power solutions for data centres of all sizes from incoming utility to rack outlet with products such as Power Xpert 9395P uninterruptible power supplies (UPSs) and B-Line Delta3 rack system.
Janne Paananen, technology manager at Eaton EMEA, will present Eaton’s conference paper, ‘The Evolution of Resilient Power Chains in Data Centres.’ The paper will discuss the need to take a holistic view of power chain design and implementation and will highlight important new auto-adaptive technologies. These technologies include Eaton’s Variable Module Management System (VMMS), which ensures that UPS operation follows the load, allowing optimum efficiency to be achieved under a wide range of load conditions, and Eaton’s proven and reliable Energy Saver System (ESS), which monitors the condition of the power grid and puts UPSs into energy-saver mode when power quality is good, promoting high efficiency.
“The technologies and products we’ll be presenting at DCD London reinforce our successful implementation of highly efficient data centre power chains,” said Janne Paananen. “However, we needed to take a holistic view of the complete power chain so we could combine high efficiency and maximum resiliency with the flexibility needed to respond quickly to changing requirements.”
The new Power Xpert 9395P UPSs that will be showcased at DCD London were specifically developed to combine efficiency, resilience, scalability and flexibility with the lowest possible total cost of ownership. They incorporate both VMMS and ESS technologies, along with Eaton’s patented Hotsync load-sharing technology that guarantees safe and reliable UPS operation by synchronising parallel power modules and UPSs without the need for a communication link or synchronisation signals.
The Delta3 rack system (DRS), which Eaton is also featuring at DCD London, offers an optimised infrastructure solution for data centre whitespace. Developed to meet the demands of ever-increasing equipment density while still providing easy cabling access and simple installation, DRS is designed for re-configurability and remediation, to grow and to change as the IT environment and the user’s data centre needs evolve.
Throughout DCD London, experts from Eaton will be on hand to provide those attending with advice and guidance on selecting solutions for specific applications, with the emphasis on combining energy efficiency with resilience, versatility, durability and low total cost of ownership.
