CAMARILLO, Calif., March 17, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Power-One, Inc. (Nasdaq:PWER), a leading provider of renewable energy and energy-efficient power conversion and management solutions, announces the introduction of two new members to its PFE series Platinum-efficiency AC-DC front-end power supplies, the PFE600 and PFE850.
These products provide a 12VDC output with 5V or 3.3V pin-selectable standby. Exceeding CSCI Platinum targets, the new PFE600 and PFE850 products, with their high efficiency and extremely low power dissipation are among the world's greenest power solutions available.
The PFE600 and PFE850, along with the previously released PFE1100, can be used in data centers, servers and storage equipment. With power levels of 600W, 850W and 1100W, all in the same slim 54mm (2 1/8") width package, the Power-One PFE series offers high levels of flexibility and scalability, while providing extremely reliable power at the world's best efficiency.
"The PFE series of power supplies offer an incredible amount of power and functionality, in one of the smallest packages available," said Mike Cusanelli, Director of Marketing for Power-One's AC-DC Power Products. "With its power density, efficiency, scalability, flexibility and reporting functionality, the PFE series is unmatched in the market."
Higher efficiency means less energy wasted within the product, and less energy used in cooling infrastructure. Switching from an ordinary power supply to a Power-One PFE supply should pay for itself in a few short months.
The PFE series of power supplies feature highly accurate real-time monitoring of input and output parameters, voltages, currents, temperatures, and true power readings. This enables data center managers to optimize server usage to reduce load power, further increasing the energy gains beyond those of the power supply itself.
