ACME’s Power Interface Unit (PIU) provides complete AC power management for telecom sites including voltage, phase selection and surge protection. The product employs static, electronic parts which require lower maintenance compared with traditional mechanisms. It integrates all essential components of a site into a single compact rack to support total automation. ACME Tele Power holds a patent for this product until 2024.
 
Lightning and Surge Protector
 

Telecommunications shelters and towers are susceptible to various environmental and power-related hazards such as lightning and voltage surges. The phenomenon of lightning is a random, chaotic and dangerous act of nature. It is an unpredictable event, whose effects can be direct or indirect. During lightning, pulses of amplitude ~200 KA with wave shape of 10/350 microns are generated.

ACME Tele Power Ltd. provides lightning and surge protection to telecommunication equipment. It offers a dynamic, external lightning protection device, which is radio quiet and its operation only occurs during lightning. ACME also provides internal lightning and surge protection systems.

Lightning flashes have been graded, indicating that they can reach temperatures to the tune of 30,000 degrees Fahrenheit or more.

IEC 61312 maintains that despite having a proper earthing system, 50% of lightning charge enters the system through power lines, telecom data lines and water–gas pipes. In other words, if 200 KA lightning strikes and is grounded, half of it is absorbed by the earth. Yet, the potentially damaging charge of approximately 100 KA would return to the system through the grounding loop.

 
Key Advantages
Greater energy efficiency than that which is typical for the combined efficiency of a servo stabilizer and an isolation transformer
Compact size reduces overall shelter size, which in turn results in smaller AC and DG
requirements, less wiring and reduced interconnection, resulting in faster installation
Auto phase selection and half cycle voltage correction, also increases utilization of incoming mains resulting in less use of generators
Employs static electronic parts which require lower maintenance compared with traditional
mechanisms
Product technology and software can be customized based on client needs with over 30 available versions
Availability of full service solution and maintenance services
Remote monitoring, and smoke and intruder protection
70,000 working hours prior to failure (approximately 12 years) and longer life spans compared to standard industry products.
   
Product Innovation
PIU is a resultant combination of insightful thinking and pathbreaking technology put together to productive use by ACME Tele Power. It is the brainchild of ACME R&D Team, which has today become the integral part of any advanced telecom site in the country. Its proprietary concept developed & designed entirely by ACME ensures optimum usage of basic power energy sources at a telecom site without any direct human intervention.

Most recent R&D addition to the PIU Package is a complete monitoring & control management system for any given site in the country, from a centralized remote location utilizing web based applications.
