Schneider Electric Korea (CEO Kim Kyung-rok), a global company leading digital innovation in the field of energy management and automation, is introducing cooling and 3-phase UPS products suitable for data centers.

Schneider Electric announced that it will participate in the '2023 Korea Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning Exhibition (HVAC KOREA)' held at COEX in Seoul for three days from the 10th to the 12th, together with two partners (Woojin Electric and EP Korea).

Since data centers operating 24 hours a day consume a lot of power and generate heat, maintaining the temperature within the facility is important.

To achieve this, various products are required, such as chillers, fan walls, in-row coolers that intensively cool only high-heat areas, and constant temperature and humidity controllers that maintain constant indoor temperature and humidity.

At this exhibition, Schneider Electric is introducing cooling equipment to achieve energy efficiency in energy-intensive data centers (IDCs) and uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) for building safe data centers.

The product line introduced by Schneider Electric consists of five types of chillers for large data centers: free cooling chillers, fan walls, in-row cooling, temperature and humidity control units, and uninterruptible power supplies (UPS).

Latest ballFree cooling chillers can accommodate power consumption in the 300-2200 kW range, making them suitable for large data centers. By introducing a free cooling system that utilizes outdoor air, they minimize annual energy usage and reduce the total cost of ownership. Schneider Electric’s Fan Wall supplies cooling using a built-in method that turns the wall itself into a fan.

For the Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) product line, the company plans to introduce the Galaxy VL, a high-efficiency UPS suitable for medium and large-sized data centers. Through its modular architecture, the Galaxy VL can expand power capacity from 200kW to 500kW without interrupting power supply. Additionally, it reduces UPS power consumption by more than three times by providing up to 99% efficiency through eConversion mode, a high-efficiency operating mode that meets the highest level of protection (IEC 62040-3 Class 1) for critical loads.

All products showcased at the event have received Schneider Electric’s proprietary Green Premium eco-label certification to minimize their environmental impact, and are integrated with EcoStruxure, the company’s IoT-based open architecture and platform, to provide various management options.

In addition, Schneider Electric will attend the Data Center Technology Conference, held as a side event, for two days. On the first day of the event, May 10, starting at 2:00 PM, Jae-Woong Park, Manager of the Secure Power Business Unit at Schneider Electric Korea, will give a presentation on the topic of "High-Efficiency Operating Modes of UPS for the Greening of Data Centers." Starting at 3:40 PM, Choi Seong-hwan, Head of the Secure Power Business Unit at Schneider Electric Korea, will present 'Data Center ESG Management Case Studies.' On May 11, Lee Chang-ho, Manager of the Secure Power Business Unit at Schneider Electric Korea, will take the stage to share 'Cooling Systems for Building and Operating Low-Carbon Data Centers.'

Choi Seong-hwan, Head of the Secure Power Business Unit at Schneider Electric Korea, said, “This exhibition, prepared together with our partners, is an opportunity to showcase various products for the sustainability that Schneider Electric pursues,” adding, “In particular, Schneider Electric plans to continue making multifaceted efforts for the overall environmental sustainability of data centers.”
