Why ECO UPS

ECO UPS Reduces Cost of Ownership...

The purpose of this section is to highlight that even a small saving in electrical usage can generate substantial financial benefits; these very real savings are quickly reflected by enhanced profitability. In fact if a company currently has an inefficient UPS the cost savings of replacing it with a high efficiency Eco UPS can typically be recouped within two years. A benefit of incorporating IGBT switching is that input THD (Total Harmonic Distortion) is less than 3%, this falls well inside proposed European legislation thus no risk of a financial penalty. The combined features of the Borri Eco UPS result in low heat, low C02, low foot print and most important of all low fuel bills.

High Power Factor low THD Reduces Installation Costs

It is estimated that over one third of direct and indirect energy (air conditioning units etc) used to power a UPS is wasted because of low efficiency, poor load arrangements and unnecessary equipment being attached. A double conversion ECO UPS when compared to traditional six and twelve pulse machine offers a typical efficiency advantage of more than 10%. Further, the ECO UPS remains efficient at low loads: with many alternative UPS topologies the efficiency drops in proportion to the load i.e. low load equals low efficiency equals higher running costs. Below we have presented two graphs; these clearly demonstrate the substantial financial benefits of using ECO friendly power products over three and eight years respectively.

An ECO 100kVA UPS over a three year term with just a 6% efficiency advantage can save the user approximately £21,000, the same machine over eight years saves a staggering £56,000, such economies mean the green choice is so much easier to make. The Eco UPS range has a number of key selling features that expand on the immense efficiency and monetary savings.
