- New MegaFlex DPA UPS solution offers the most resilient and compact UPS system for the Indian market with a reduced footprint up to 45 percent
- ABB India’s Electrification business launches innovative UPS solution for data centers
- Delivers impressive sustainable power technology with reduced energy losses and high energy efficiency of up to 97.4 percent in Double conversion mode up to 2MW
ABB India’s Electrification business launched MegaFlex DPA (Decentralized Parallel Architecture) UPS solutions for the Indian market. The first of its kind sustainable UPS which is part of ABB EcoSolutions™ portfolio and complies with the ABB circularity framework. It has been designed for high density computing environment with highest efficiency rating and lowest footprint.
With the enterprise demand driving more SaaS (Software as a Service) and IaaS (Infra-structure as a Service) applications, data center continuity has never been more critical. In India, the data center market is projected to grow with the highest internet subscribers, massive surge in usage of mobile devices, digital payments, focus on big data, cloud computing, IoT and the data protection bill. The continuity of data centers is critical to the development of the Indian digital stack.
As a market leader in UPS technology, the MegaFlex UPS range from ABB is targeting the IEC and UL market, with power ranges of up to 1.5 and 1.6 MW respectively. The MegaFlex solution delivers excellent availability and reliability, with the most compact footprint on the market, up to 45 percent smaller for the IEC version compared to competitor models of equal power rating. Despite its small footprint, the UPS delivers impressive sustainable power technology with reduced energy losses due to high efficiency converters, adaptable to variable IT load.
Kiran Dutt, President Electrification, ABB India said: “As the Indian data center market grows rapidly, demand for reliable, efficient, scalable and redundant power solutions will also continue to grow. With MegaFlex DPA, we introduce to Indian customers the latest in technology and innovation in the critical power field. With the vast amount of energy consumed by these data centers, every percentage point improvement in efficiency brings with it large cost savings. More importantly, being the first of its kind product in the Indian market with circularity compliance, it also supports our customer’s sustainability commitments.”
This supports ABB Electrification’s Mission to Zero for smart cities, a vision for a zero-emission reality for all, and reinforces its commitment to offer safe, smart and sustainable power technologies to the global data center industry.
