UPS Selection for Semiconductor Manufacturing Equipment
For the demanding environment of semiconductor manufacturing equipment, even the slightest power disruption can lead to significant losses. Therefore, integrated Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) systems are essential for safeguarding precision equipment.
This article explores how SANYO DENKI AMERICA’s SANUPS, leveraging advanced lithium-ion technology, provides critical protection for individual semiconductor manufacturing units. The unique demands of these processes require tailored, embedded UPS solutions. We’ll examine the key selection criteria and how SANUPS delivers unmatched reliability and performance.
Key Selection Considerations:
Capacity (kVA):
- For control units, which manage the delicate electronic operations, 1-5 kVA is often sufficient.
- However, it’s not a one-size-fits-all scenario. Tailoring the capacity to the specific equipment’s power profile is essential. Consider factors like peak power demands during startup and transient loads during operation.
Backup Time:
- Typically, 1-5 minutes is sufficient to allow for a controlled shutdown or to bridge short power interruptions.
- This duration allows the equipment to safely complete critical processes or transition to a stable state, preventing data loss or equipment damage.

Lithium-Ion Longevity and Performance for Extended Equipment Uptime
SANUPS distinguishes itself by offering a core feature that directly addresses the long-term reliability and performance needs of embedded industrial applications:
- Lithium-Ion Battery Longevity:
-
- SANUPS lithium-ion batteries, as featured in the E11B-Li and A11K-Li models, offer a significant advantage with a lifespan of approximately 10 years, dramatically reducing maintenance compared to the 2-5 years of traditional lead-acid batteries.
-
- This extended lifespan translates to fewer disruptions, lower operational costs, and enhanced equipment uptime.
-
- The stable chemistry of lithium-ion also provides a more consistent power output over time, which is critical for precision equipment.
