Eaton Helps Data Centers Achieve Critical Reliability and Support Modern
Power Distribution Architectures for Enhanced Efficiency, Safety and Flexibility
ST. LOUIS… Power management company Eaton is helping data center customers enhance
critical power system reliability while addressing the modern challenges of electrical
efficiency, safety and operational flexibility. Eaton’s portfolio of expansive circuit protection
solutions, including its Bussmann series fusible circuit protection, will be on display in booth
#431 at the 2015 AFCOM Data Center World Global Conference from April 19 through 23 in
Las Vegas.
“Eaton’s circuit protection solutions are designed to support today’s high distribution voltage
designs and help meet code compliance without compromising energy efficiency,” said Nick
Stone, Eaton’s Bussmann Division. “Our products for data center customers also contribute
to reduced equipment footprint, minimized maintenance and superior current limitation while
exceeding expectations for operational safety.”
Data center electrical distribution designs are rapidly evolving, driven by needs such as
increasing power densities, energy efficiency, flexibility, and the benefits of minimizing
maintenance while retaining reliability. Many of these design advances result in overcurrent
protection challenges including: higher distribution voltages, high available fault currents and
greater potential arc flash hazard. Providing a reliable solution for nearly any data center
environment, Eaton’s Bussmann series solutions are specifically engineered to support the
needs of scalable architectures and high distribution voltages for enhanced energy efficiency.
