Maximizing the Reliability of Electronic Systems Total Protection Solution Power Interruptions The Electronic Power Research Institute (EPRI) estimates that power interruptions (even those as short as one-sixtieth of a second) cost American businesses $50 billion each year. 2 Power Interruptions Power outages are the number one cause of business disruption.

High-frequency transients often cause degradation of the silicon substrate such as the pitting shown here. Semiconductor chips damaged in this way can run hot, perform unreliably and ultimately fail. Normal Semiconductor Damaged Semiconductor 15 5 Reasons for using a UPS • Disaster recovery, it’s not a matter of “if” but “when”. • Clean utility power at the point of “connection” is your problem. • Short term outages are abundant, over 120 power problems a month • Outages are costly, $2,000 to $50,000 per hour • Surge suppressors will not address brownouts, blackouts, or high voltage conditions • A single outage easily covers the cost of a UPS 16 Average Reduction in Trouble Calls Hardware 83% NTF 43% Program / Reset 70% Network 37% Station 22% Other 74% Total Protection Field Study Results Compiled over 10 years 17 How Can Chloride Help? • • • Tech Support 800-327-8801 x3 24X7 Chip Peagler - Sales [email protected] O 770-442-8163 M 404-414-3536 Michael Boyle – Application Engineer [email protected] O 847-990-3548 18
