Critical Process Manufacturing

Precision manufacturing and critical processes require highly sensitive conditions to avoid scrap and rework.

Any kind of disruption to power supply, no matter how short, during such a process can have significant financial implications. Ensuring a high quality, stable, and Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) is essential when casting, forming or machining critical components.

How to achieve power resilience for your manufacturing site

An Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) uses a battery energy storage system to ensure that there are no disruptions to the power supply from the grid. By switching to the battery power supply in less than 0.01 seconds, on-site electrical equipment experiences no disruption in the event of a blackout, brownout, or other power failure. Production is able to continue without interruption.

Small UPS systems can be applied to individual systems or critical equipment. However, in the case of a high-value production process, the complexity and inter-connectivity of multiple systems means multiple small UPS systems would need to be implemented. A full site-wide UPS system can be installed to greater effect to prevent all on-site equipment from being disrupted, enabling production to continue as normal.

Effective power management beyond the need for power resilience

Importantly, a UPS system with the scale to provide site-wide protection can also provide manufacturers with more functionality above and beyond power resilience. With the right control software and a robust energy strategy, a battery energy storage system can efficiently and intelligently manage on-site energy flows to simultaneously support net zero carbon objectives.
