Original Press Release:



New Conditioning Power System (CPS) from Staco Energy Products Co.



Dayton, OH - An innovative new conditioning power system is now available from Staco Energy Products Co. The new FirstLine® Conditioning Power System (CPS) protects against 98% of all power problems, has a low cost of ownership, extremely low maintenance requirements, and built-in diagnostic tools. This new approach to power protection gives users superior protection from voltage fluctuations, brownout conditions, harmonics, and transient surges. It is designed for those applications where blackouts are rare, but expensive capital equipment, such as HVAC systems and manufacturing robotics systems, can be damaged by poor power quality. It saves money by extending the life of capital equipment and keeps operations up and running through unstable power situations. It is unique because it can provide a high level of protection for equipment where traditional UPS cannot be used because of environmental or cost considerations.

Through it's robust double conversion technology, the FirstLine® completely isolates the connected load from the primary AC supply, protecting it from voltage sags, high voltage spikes, transients, and frequency variations. It is built tough enough to withstand commercial and industrial environments, with features sophisticated enough to support the most delicate electronic equipment.

The initial cost of a FirstLine® CPS can be as little as half that of a typical UPS system, and provides equal or better protection against everything except complete blackouts. The cost savings continue throughout the life of the unit, with lower annual maintenance costs and no battery replacement costs. Yet the FirstLine® offers tight voltage regulation and conditioning, extremely low maintenance costs, quick response times and easier maintenance.

Dave Kendall, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Staco Energy says, "With its high level of protection, and ability to be used where a more rugged solution needs to be applied, the FirstLine CPS is ideal for industrial and facilities applications. We anticipate a high demand for the FirstLine, because it fills a gap between UPS systems and traditional power conditioners. This really is a completely new product with leading edge technology for the power protection market."

The system can be configured for any 208, 380 or 480 VAC application. It can handle a generous input voltage range of ± 20%, while holding output an extremely tight regulation of ± 0.5% for 100% balanced loads and ± 3% for 100% unbalanced loads. It has a total harmonic distortion (THD) of less than 3% for 100% linear loads, and less than 5% for 100% non-linear loads. It also regulates frequency to a stringent +/- .05%.

The FirstLine's® front-mounted, user-friendly display panel gives the ability for complete monitoring and control of connected systems. It is also available with optional remote diagnostics and a remote alarm unit, so users will know immediately when power problems occur.

The FirstLine® CPS is available for purchase from Staco Energy Products Co.'s global network of sales partners. To find a one in your area, visit the Where to Buy section on www.stacoenergy.com, or call the factory direct at 937-253-1191.
