Piller Power Systems has successfully implemented advanced UPS technology at a prominent North American semiconductor wafer manufacturing plant, as part of phase one of a major construction project. The company supplied five UB-V 2700KW UPS units, providing over 12MW of protection to the critical load operating at 24KV Medium Voltage Level. The UPS energy store, a PB60 Kinetic Flywheel, was chosen for its environmentally friendly and efficient energy storage capabilities, ensuring carbon-free storage with minimal maintenance over decades.<\/p>\n
Additionally, Piller provided Dual Redundant System Controls with concurrent maintainability system and switchgear design. This power protection initiative is part of a multi-billion dollar manufacturing production development aimed at significantly increasing production capacity for next-generation semiconductor wafers used in applications such as electric vehicles and charging stations.<\/p>\n
Aligned with the 2022 US CHIPS Act, which aims to strengthen the country\u2019s semiconductor infrastructure manufacturing base, Piller\u2019s swift response to the project\u2019s Phase 1 requirements showcased its design and deployment capabilities. The project supports the broader goal of maintaining the US\u2019s leadership in new technologies, especially in semiconductor production crucial for electrification and digitalization-driven economic prosperity.<\/p>\n
Piller\u2019s strategic approach, which omitted battery backup and associated control infrastructure, resulted in a reduced physical footprint. The deployment of UPS units, switchgear, and flywheel units away from the main building shell in secure enclosures demonstrated the company\u2019s flexibility and efficiency. With decades of proven experience globally, Piller continues to excel in providing power protection and management for sensitive electronic component and advanced semiconductor manufacturing environments.<\/p>\n
