Our Capability

Century Yuasa’s expertise lies in the engineering of new power

systems, the upgrade of installed systems, as well as the evaluation

and maintenance of existing standby power systems. Our depth

of knowledge and extensive experience allows for the formation of

technically sound solutions that aim to provide the lowest possible

‘life cycle’ cost while applying the principles of:

Compliance Consistently supplying products or services

that apply all necessary industry standards and

regulatory requirements.

Knowledge Providing commercial and technical proposals

which are based on established practices of

uninterruptible power design, construction and

maintenance to meet clients’ specifications.

Integrity The delivery of a complete and balanced offer

that combines the principles of compliance

and knowledge.

At Century Yuasa, we take your health and safety seriously with all

our products and services delivered to the best standards available.

Certified ISO14001 Environmental Management

Certified ISO9001 Quality Management

Certified AS/NZS 4801 Safety Management System

All National Standards and best practices

Design Services

Designing power systems requires a broad understanding of

possible electrical topologies, limitations of components used

within a design and issues of standards compliance. Century

Yuasa offers specialized personnel specifically for the purpose of

engineering design and documentation of power systems. These

services can be provided as an integrated part of a project solution,

alternatively they can be procured separately.

This gives our clients the option of requesting a complete end-to-

end solution, staged or segmented delivery or simply just to update

existing systems.

With certified quality management procedures and dedicated

resources, Century Yuasa has the experience and facilities to

provide designs, construction and documentation packages

which are commercially viable, technically accurate and industry

compliant.

Key Design Elements That Help You

Duty of care – reduction of risk

Not only do Intelepower products look good, but Century Yuasa

also ensures full compliance with relevant safety standards and

regulations, so that your most precious assets, your staff, are safe.

The unique features of the Intelepower battery segregation means

that your personnel are protected from unlikely hazardous events.

Power that you can rely on

Only the most reliable components that are available are used,

resulting in the best Mean Time Between Failures possible. Each

system is fully tested to the highest standards available.

The Intelepower equipment meets all relevant International

specifications for EMC and other types of electrical interference.

Low maintenance costs

The high reliability of Intelepower results in low maintenance

costs. Although the batteries used are Yuasa and will result in a

long life, that life is still finite so Century Yuasa recommends six

monthly checks in order to trend the batteries and predict future

performance. Because of the technology used, these checks are

able to be done in normal hours without disruption to supply. The

modular approach to design allows for low cost replacement of

electronic components, normally without any disruption to supply.

Low running costs

The high efficiency of the latest switch mode rectifiers utilising high

efficiency power conversion switch mode technology, means that

the lowest possible electricity usage is achieved.

Low upgrade costs

What happens when you add load that wasn’t planned? Usually this

requires the purchase of new power equipment. However with the

modular design of Intelepower, it is usually possible to upgrade at

minimal cost, especially if this is allowed for when selecting.

Easy to purchase and integrate into customer premises

Intelepower is made and stocked in Australia and usually comes

complete with delivery, installation and commissioning. All this

is done transparently and efficiently by the Century Yuasa expert

team. Standard Intelepower equipment is compact and on a single

small footprint. All you need to do is supply AC power close by.

No power down time

Intelepower DC UPS are intended to be powered continuously

with no off period, unless the AC power feeding the equipment

is off longer than the designed autonomy time. Work such as

maintenance and upgrades can be completed without any power

down, especially if this work is carried out by Century Yuasa’s

expert Technicians.

Monitoring

Monitoring is standard on Intelepower systems which are network

ready with integrated SNMP and web page access. Rectifier alarms

are indicated via LEDs with multiple user definable relay alarms.

POWER SYSTEMS

ENERGY STORAGE

Grid Connect Energy Storage Systems Energy Storage Systems with Renewables

With current tariff pricing shifting from flat rate to time of use tariffs, commercial and industrial businesses are looking for new ways to manage their power supply and reduce cost.

Grid connected energy storage is a viable solution to mitigate the daily load spikes and reduce peak demand tariffs. Century Yuasa can build a grid connected energy storage system to your specifications and Australian standards. Our understanding of DC Power and battery storage positions Century Yuasa as a market leader in industrial and commercial energy storage solutions.

Network support

For businesses looking to improve their green social responsibilities or capitalise on space that isn’t being utilised, a grid connected energy storage system with renewable technology may be the answer. However, connecting renewable technology into your existing power network can be quite complicated and risky to your personnel and your assets.

From concept to installation, Century Yuasa can help you design and implement the renewable BESS system that is right for your needs.

POWER SYSTEMS

Industrial Uninterruptible Power Systems

The need for quality power in critical response assets is placing

demands on DC Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS).

Power quality and reliability are integral to ensuring the availability

of many of the systems which now run critical operations on a

day-to-day basis. These continuing changes in technology have

seen businesses evaluate the costs associated with downtime due

to power outages, making the need for uninterrupted power an

essential component of a business’ infrastructure.

Specialist engineering personnel can design, install and

commission complete systems as well as offer specialised

consultative services to manage one-off or a complete network of

UPS equipment.

All standard Intelepower UPS systems are designed to all relevant

Australian Standards, to provide reliable power for essential

operations. Intelepower has the expertise and resources to ensure

that work is carried out effectively and efficiently to internationally

bench marked quality standards.

Regardless of the size of your backup requirements, an Intelepower

system can be designed to provide the most reliable uninterruptible

power supply.

DC Power Systems

The Intelepower brand of Industrial DC power systems are

designed to provide absolute reliability where quality power and

power equipment is mandatory for overall integrity of operations.

Guaranteeing power during mains black-out or brown-out conditions,

each system is assembled with Yuasa industrial VRLA batteries.

Intelepower Industrial DC Systems can be customised for your

specific application and power requirements. Using a modular

design philosophy, Intelepower systems are flexible enough to cater

for expansion of components and ease of replacement.

This is achieved through the use of switch mode rectifier technology

with hot-swappable capabilities. This provides readily expandable

power or N+1 redundancy options with minimal cost increases,

while offering reduced MTTR (Mean Time To Repair). Each system

is network ready, with integrated SNMP and SCADA technology

allowing operators to access system performance in real time from

a remote location, reducing costs associated with servicing.
