Power has always been a crucial part of data center infrastructure. But approaches to supplying power are changing drastically. Renewable energies are gaining importance and new ways of achieving redundancy are emerging. UPS-Day 2019 by DatacenterWorks focused on these radical changes in power infrastructure. As a sponsor and presenter at the event, Delta explained what’s driving these shifts and the technologies companies can deploy in response.
Power grids ensure that consumers can be supplied with electrical energy at all times. Requirements for the quantity, availability and quality of the energy vary according to the consumer and are therefore contractually agreed between the consumer and the supplier. In this way, trouble-free operation of customer installations can be ensured without unduly influencing other energy consumers on the same network. However, where mains power quality is concerned, the problems caused by influences are increasing rapidly. This is not least the result of consumer behaviour in terms of AC-DC voltage conversion, which makes energy planning an increasingly difficult task (for example when considering e-mobility). But also, countless and ever-increasing numbers of decentralised feed-in points, such as PV systems for example, multiply the supplier’s problems and as a result make it more difficult for them to comply with their contracts.
Carrier confirms its refrigerant strategy in Europe by choosing HFO refrigerants with low Global Warming Potential (GWP) for most of its commercial heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC) product applications.
Gartner predicts 80% of businesses will have closed their conventional data centers within the next six years. That’s why the annual Datacenter Dynamics (DCD) España conference, which took place on May 29 in Madrid, focused on how the future of the data center and cloud infrastructure will be built in Spain. As one of the event’s lead sponsors, Delta had a booth and held a presentation that described a unique way to accelerate data center ROI.
At the University of Southern Denmark, engineering students are taught electronics and challenged with real-life industrial equipment driven by electric motors and drives manufactured by Nidec.
Delta, a global provider of smart and energy-efficient industrial automation solutions, today announced it will be demonstrating several smart manufacturing solutions at SPS IPC Drives Italia 2019. The highlight of Delta’s exhibition at the show will be a demonstration of the new CODESYS-based Motion Control Solution, which integrates the control layers of PLCs, HMIs, and motion controllers into one single platform to provide seamless control of a Delta SCARA robot on site. Also on display will be Delta’s DIAEnergie solution, which offers factories and production lines the possibility to enhance their real-time energy consumption monitoring and management capability to the smart manufacturing standard.
The NEVADA process (Neutralisation et VAlorisation des Déchets d’Amiante - neutralization and valorization of asbestos wastes), at the heart of the circular economy, consists in operating a clean eco-industrial process for neutralising and recycling asbestos waste.The Neutramiante Company and the De Dietrich Process Systems Group have come up with a clean, sustainable and cost-effective solution to solve a public health problem that is currently stalled: The irreversible eradication of asbestos waste.
