Initiatives RICHARDSON, Texas Richardson is a suburb in Dallas County and Collin County, Texas. As of the 2000 census, the city had a total population of 91,803, while according to a 2006 estimate, the population had grown to 99,200. -- A new 24V high-efficiency AC-DC power system that reduces wasted power and cuts electricity and cooling expenses is now available to hundreds of thousands of wireless cell sites across the world. The Eltek Valere Flatpack 2 24/1800 HE rectifier rectifier, component of an electric circuit used to change alternating current to direct current. Rectifiers are made in various forms, all operating on the principle that current passes through them freely in one direction but only slightly or not at all in the module is the first high-efficiency, 24V system offering more than 95% peak efficiency compared to industry state of the art of 90%. With efficiency levels greater than 95% at between 30 percent - 70 percent of the output capacity, the Flatpack 2 24/1800 HE decreases power losses by at least 50% compared to alternative solutions. The new rectifier is the third in a series of high-efficiency rectifiers developed by Eltek Valere as part of its green-line product strategy. "This is a pioneering new system because much of the industry's focus on high efficiency has been on 48V technology, but 24V power is essential at many cell sites and now these carriers have an alternative to help lower their costs and meet their environmental commitments," said Allen Pitts Allen Pitts (born June 28, 1964 in Tucson, Arizona) was a receiver for the Calgary Stampeders in the Canadian Football League from 1990 to 2000. He attended Cal-State Fullerton and played his entire professional career as a receiver for the Calgary Stampeders. , Eltek Valere President for the Americas.

The rectifier can be used in a variety of system configurations from Eltek Valere, and can be scaled up to 48kW and beyond. The Flatpack 2 24/1800 HE provides intelligent self-protective features like reduced output power at high temperatures or low AC input. The efficiency of the rectifier, along with Eltek Valere's system and controller features, can help carriers to provide reliable and extended reserve times- at a time when many are facing initiatives to provide increased back up power at cell sites to maintain service during emergencies.

Many Eltek Valere power systems support multiple power bus configurations, which enable operators to distribute loads into high and low priority.

The use of HE rectifiers reduces the load on these emergency generators, and makes more effective use of their capacity. The Flatpack 2 24/1800 HE features plug and play capabilities for easy installation. Operators can plug the new rectifier into the power shelf and it automatically logs on, gets an assigned ID, downloads the system set parameters from the control system and starts up. Eltek Valere also offers at 48V version of the Flatpack product family, giving carriers a complete solution for high-efficiency power at cell sites or in other parts of the network. A combined 24V/48V Flatpack system is also possible using converters. The Flatpack 2 24/1800 HE is available immediately from Eltek Valere and its resellers worldwide. All Flatpack 2 24/1800 HE rectifiers are CE marked, UL recognized and NEBS compliant (Network Equipment Building Systems compliant) Adhering to standards from Telcordia for equipment used in telco central offices (COs). Most equipment must be NEBS certified before it can be integrated into carrier facilities. . About Eltek Valere Eltek Valere, headquartered in Richardson, TX, was formed from the June 2007 merger of Eltek Energy and Valere Power. It is a $600 million provider of DC power systems to telecommunications and industrial markets worldwide.
