Power Protection 101
[1] How is Electricity Transmitted? In this section, we introduce the electrical systems we rely on every day, the types of power outages, and how we can handle them. Now more than ever, electricity is an indispensable part of our society. The widespread destruction of disasters like the Great East Japan Earthquake of 2011 reminds […]
UPS Overview
1. Introduction UPS is the abbreviation for Uninterruptible Power Supply and is a device which supplies power to devices for a fixed amount of time without stopping even when problems are occurring with utility power and other power sources. In this present-day highly information-orientated society, the work tasks of many industries, including manufacturing, service and medical, operate […]
White Paper – Power Control Technologies that Contribute to Customer Success
1. Introduction In recent years, various problems and demands have appeared as electric power systems are connected to different loads and power plants. In commercial power systems and small-scale electric power systems that do not include power receiving points, when there is a load that requires great electrical power instantaneously within the installation, a voltage […]

Our History of Power Product
Sanyo Shokai Special Electric Works 1932
SANUPS A11H was designed to provide not only sustainable power but also the capability of handling large power fluctuations to achieve further stability in mission critical equipment. […]
Outdoor Radio Hand Generator from 1951
With the establishment of the Japan Defense Agency in 1954, the precursor of the Japan Ministry of Defense, there was a movement to produce defense electronics domestically. We developed this generator for portable U.S. military radios. We manufactured a majority of the emergency radio power supplies mandated for use in lifeboats in case of shipwreck, […]
30 kVA EMG 3-Engine Uninterruptible Power Supply from 1955
An uninterruptible power supply is one of Sanyo Denki’s flagship products. It contributes to the communications industry as a power backup, but the power supply made by Sanyo Denki, the first of its kind in Japan, was indeed born for the telephone in the communications industry. On August 1st, 1952, the business of the Ministry […]

Tape winder from 1965
In the 1960s, our flagship products were power supplies for communication applications, and these demonstrated robust growth primarily centered on permanent power supply systems, wind-up generators and power supply systems for signal position meters. Demand also increased rapidly as a result of sales of rotating devices such as servo motors and resolvers beginning to take […]
Motor Generator 32 kW 1983-1992
In the history of computers, the computers from the late 1960s to the 1970s (known as the third generation of computers) used IC and LSI and achieved rapid progress through electronics. At the same time, to avoid damage to logical elements and other components due to sudden power voltage fluctuations or penetration of lightning surges, […]
Power Supply Systems for a Distributed Power Supply 1987 to 2000
In the 1980s, information communication services were developing by leaps and bounds, with conventional services focused on analog telephones giving way to multimedia communications based around digital technologies. Around this time, Japanese telecommunications company NTT (Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation) developed and began installing the D70 digital switch for both digital and analog subscriber lines. […]
