Impact of electrical disturbances in logistics centers
Modern logistics centers rely on a highly technological, fully automated, and interconnected ecosystem, including:
- Conveyor belts and automatic sorting systems
- Order-picking robots
- Next-generation inventory management IT systems leveraging artificial intelligence, machine learning, and big data
- Automated industrial lighting and climate control via advanced sensor networks
Any fluctuation in power quality can cause unplanned shutdowns, forced restarts, or even data loss in management systems. These failures result in delayed deliveries, contractual penalties, and reduced customer satisfaction. In an environment where every second counts, companies need electrical protection systems that eliminate these risks.
SEPEC industrial UPS: Comprehensive protection against electrical failures
ZGR Corporación’s SEPEC Industrial UPS systems are engineered to shield industrial processes from short-duration electrical disturbances, such as:
- Micro-outages (millisecond-scale interruptions)
- Voltage sags (momentary voltage drops)
- Transient overvoltages (short-lived voltage spikes that can damage equipment)
Unlike conventional UPS systems, SEPEC units operate in standby mode, reducing component wear, lowering maintenance costs, and extending service life.
Their design enables seamless integration with diesel or gas generator sets, ensuring seamless, no-break transfer—so the bus never drops to zero voltage—during a grid failure.
Several major logistics centers in Spain have already placed their trust in SEPEC, successfully eliminating electrical interruptions in their automated warehouses, maintaining 24/7 synchronization of robotic systems, and reducing downtime—thereby minimizing financial losses from unexpected stoppages.
A SEPEC unit integrates seamlessly with generator sets, completely eliminates grid interruptions, and avoids zero-voltage crossings, ensuring a seamless transition during a grid fault.
Economic and operational advantages of SEPEC
Implementing SEPEC Industrial UPS systems represents a strategic investment with clear benefits for electricity-intensive logistics operations:
- Lower operating costs: SEPEC units, being robust, flexible, and high-performance, do not operate in constant conversion mode, resulting in less wear and reduced maintenance requirements.
- Guaranteed operational continuity: Prevents costly interruptions that can run to hundreds of thousands of euros per incident.
- Generator set compatibility: Enables seamless, interruption-free transition during grid failures.
- Reduced downtime: Keeps automated systems running and safeguards the supply chain.
