Product catalog summary
Introduction
The document discusses the critical role of reliable power systems in data centres, driven by the growth of IoT and big data. It highlights the need for continuous power supply to ensure business continuity in hyperscale data centres.

Data Centre Back-Up Power
Modern data centres require stringent back-up power solutions to maintain uptime and efficiency. The document outlines the importance of UPS systems, both static and dynamic, in providing temporary power during outages.

Static UPS
Static UPS systems convert AC to DC to charge batteries and then back to AC to supply IT loads. They are installed inside buildings and range from 20 to 500 kW.

Dynamic UPS
Dynamic UPS systems use kinetic energy to support loads until a diesel engine takes over. They are efficient, require no air conditioning, and are installed outside, starting from 500 kW.

Marelli Motori Solutions
Marelli Motori offers synchronous generators designed for data centres, with low and medium/high voltage options. Their products are customizable to meet specific environmental conditions and performance requirements.

Mechanical Features
The generators feature reinforced construction, various bearing configurations, and external ventilation systems to enhance efficiency.

Insulation and Reactance
Marelli Motori provides tailored insulation systems and reactance values to minimize harmonics and voltage distortion, ensuring optimal performance in harsh conditions.

AVR and PMG Excitation
The document details the use of analog and digital AVRs for voltage accuracy and PMG excitation for independent power supply, ensuring stability under non-linear loads.

Manufacturing Excellence
Marelli Motori emphasizes its commitment to quality through continuous R&D and third-party certifications, ensuring high standards in generator manufacturing.

Contact Information
The document provides contact details for Marelli Motori's offices worldwide, including Italy, Asia Pacific, South Africa, Central Europe, USA, Middle East, UK, Spain, Vietnam, and China.

Generators for data centres-2

Technology is a key requirement in many industries and data centres are perhaps the most critical area in an age where each computer, mobile and application is data dependent. The unprecedent growth of IoT and big data is changing the way we store, handle and analyse a vast amount of data. Hyperscale data centres and campus models that offer cross-connection between customers and their networks / cloud computing platforms are experiencing significant momentum. As a consequence, the constant flow of data is becoming an imperative for all data centre operators, in turn driving a greater need for...

The new future-proof data centres have more stringent requirements that offer an optimal solution for back-up power that guarantees business continuity. UTILITY POWER The power path is composed by a rectifier that converts the incoming utility AC current to DC, in order to charge a battery system, and an inverter that converts DC back to supply the IT load. The system provides temporary power via its batteries when the utility system fails, and then transfers the critical load to a stand by generator that supplements power for longer outages.

MECHANICAL FEATURES TERMINAL BOXES Subtransient reactance is a factor that influences the maximum peak during short circuits. Low values are crucial to minimise harmonics and consequently limit the voltage distortion. However, sometimes customers may require high values in order to minimise the cost of razing short circuits. Marelli Motori specialises in designing alternators with fully tailored values of subtransient reactance depending on specific project requirements. Expert winding design enhances voltage waveform and minimises values of harmonic distortion and interference with telecommunications....
