Falcon Electric Kicks-Off Lunch and Learn Program
IRWINDALE, CA — (Marketwired) — 11/13/14 — a leader in protecting mission-critical equipment in harsh environments against power problems, announced today that it has officially started its new program across North America. Falcon–s collaborative Lunch and Learn presentations will provide electrical engineers, project managers, operations and maintenance personnel with an in-depth look at choosing the right power protection solution for mission-critical processes, especially those operating in harsh conditions. During these informative sessions, Falcon–s technical representatives will discuss considerations for maximizing uptime of power dependent applications such as oil and gas, process control, security, water treatment and transportation.
„Protecting essential industrial processes such as SCADA and PLCs against power problems is paramount,“ said Ron Seredian, vice president of marketing for Falcon Electric. „Many people think all UPSs are the same. This can be a costly misconception. Our Lunch and Learns are a way to educate those working with mission-critical applications about power protection requirements and the important considerations when safeguarding systems in harsh environmental conditions.“
The discussions are held either in person at an organization–s facility or via teleconference. Falcon–s technical representatives lead the discussion with a collaborative exchange of ideas and questions from participants. Presentation topics are geared for anyone running operations in hash industrial settings. Topics covered include:
Important power quality considerations
Mission-critical application power requirements (SCADA, PLCs, automation)
High-temperature UPS design (on-line, double-conversion)
Safety agency approvals including UL 508
Environmental temperature concerns from -30 degrees C to 65 degrees C (-22 degrees F to 149 degrees F)
Long-life battery technology
Industrial UPS options such as NEMA enclosures
According to the Energy Information Administration (EIA), American businesses lose as much as $150 billion per year due to power interruptions. „Disruption of power to manufacturing processes, chemical processing, pipelines and other –always on operations– is not only costly, but can pose safety and quality issues. Understanding how using power protection that is specifically designed for the unique requirements of these types of industrial applications can go a long way in improving throughput and the bottom line,“ said Seredian.
