Customer Profle

Founded in 1999 and based in Thailand, Fabrinet oers

advanced precision manuacturing capabilities. The

companys ocus is low-volume production o a wide variety

o products.

The company manuactures, assembles, and tests products

or customers at its main manuacturing acilities in

Bangkok, Thailand. The bulk o its own optical materials is

designed and manuactured at their acilities in Fuzhou, the

Peoples Republic o China, and New Jersey, USA.

Fabrinet uses a variety o optical and electro-mechanical

process technologies licensed or use by their customers

or developed in-house. A number o internally developed

operational systems are used as well to provide customers

with improved eciencies.

Fabrinets customers include our (out o six) o the largest

optical communications-components companies in the

world. Market research has shown that companies that

Fabrinet supports such as: voice and data communications,

semiconductor processing, biotechnology, metrology,

material processing, auto saety and medical devices are on

the rise.

The Challenge

While building a new FAB which would allow it to enlarge

its production line, Fabrinet requested a solution capable

o ensuring a reliable, stable, continuous power supply and

protection to its critical equipment while guaranteeing an

uninterruptible production line at all times. The solution

searched or had to convert the requency o the power

rom 50 Hz to 60 Hz (the main supply in Thailand provides

50Hz while the Fabrinet production equipment operates at

60Hz requency being an American made equipment) as

well.

The solution

In order to answer customers needs Gamatronic provided

the Mega Power+ modular, parallel UPS solution oering:

A totally green input power (Unity power actor o 96%

and less than 5% THDI) provided by the Mega Power+

minimizes the size o the input upstream, generator,

transormer, switch gears and eeding cables.

The modular, parallel, redundant structure o the Mega

system (25kVA=25VA power modules) provides the highest

load availability (uptime) o output power. It ensures that

even i one module or more malunction, they isolatethemselves rom the rest o the unctioning modules,

allowing the power protection system to operate with the

maximum possible uptime.

Optimized sizing and scalability: the structure o the

Mega Power+ enables the user to upscale the power

protection solution when new equipment is added

to the production line. At Fabrinet, the Mega Power+

operates as both a UPS and a static requency converter,

which converts the input power rom 50 Hz into a stable,

independent, high quality output power o 60 Hz.Small Footprint:Thanks to the hot swap eature o the Mega

Power+, the downtime (MTTR mean time to repair) o the

power protection system is reduced to a ew minutes and

Individual malunction power modules can be replaced in a

very short time , without shutting the whole system down.

The high power density o the Mega solution ( per volume

and per weight), allowed or 4 systems o 300kVA (scalable

up to 500kVA) be positioned in a small room.

Mega Power + 125kVA/kWto 500kVA/kW

The Mega Power+ is a state o the art modular redundant UPS

System - With a capacity to grow up to 500kVA (with 25kW

increments).

The products unbelievable small ootprint and high eciency

makes it one o the worlds leading solutions in its range.

The product is utilized in many Datacenter rooms, hospitals,

manuacturing & industrial applications, telecom Datacenters

as well as many other segments.

System Characteristics

Highest eciency rate o 96%.

Signicant energy and cooling savings.

Maximum Availability and Minimal Downtime.

The Highest Power Density / Smallest Footprint (25kVA/

kW 3U and saves space in data centers, IT rooms and other

critical hosted sites).

All connections and cables are internal. Minimal access to

the sides and rear o the unit is required FRONT access

only.

Highest level o load availability: Even i a module ails, it will

not infuence the system operation and load availability.

The system will continue to work uninterrupted.

Flexible scalability: Mega Power+ ensures uture growth

when load increases. This scalability eature enables the

user/ designer unprecedented fexibility.

Minimal maintenance: Mega Power+ delivers almost zeroMTTR (Mean Time To Repair), which results in the best

service with minimal costs.

Minimal maintenance: Mega Power+ delivers almost zero

MTTR (Mean Time To Repair), which results in the best

service with minimal costs.

Mega Power+ perorms unity output PF 250kVA = 250kW.

The UPS is perectly suitable or loads, such as blade servers

with lower power actor.

Gamatronic understands that energy-savings is not only

a matter o cost-savings, but also o social responsibility.

Mega Power+ clean and globally responsible energy

technology meets and exceeds power requirements, while

minimizing environmental impact.

Each Mega Power+ eatures a unique and proprietary

Controller, which is the users main interace with the Mega

Power+. The Controller eatures a colored, touch sensitive

screen which enables the user to navigate through the

system screens by pressing various icons. Multilanguage

unctions allow simple usage worldwide. The Controller is

not a ailure point and the UPS operation is not interrupted

i the Controller is removed. Its interace oers up-to-

the-minute, intelligent monitoring o all UPS parameters

including intelligent battery monitoring unctionality,

system voltage, temperature etc. Each system element

has its own Control and History Log. Built in SNMP/TCIP &

optional GPSR/SMS interace provides complete control

over units operation without installing sotware or using

dedicated computers or control hardware.
