Schneider Electric has announced an enhanced version of eConversion (formerly known as ECOnversion), the company’s generally-recommended protection mode to provide increased sustainability for its Galaxy V Series 3-phase UPS.
After years of field tests, effective May 31, 2022, all Galaxy V Series UPS will be shipped to customers with eConversion as the default, a release by Schneider Electric said.
With cost of ownership and sustainability as an ongoing pain point, Schneider Electric is the only company that offers this unique, patented combination of performance and efficiency. eConversion mode provides the highest protection level for critical loads with Class-1 (UL certified) and results in savings up to three times the UPS price. Providing critical back-up power solutions for IT and non-IT environments, such as industrial edge applications, Galaxy V Series’ eConversion delivers reliable power protection and helps attain new levels of sustainability.
eConversion has over eight years of field deployment and thousands of customers worldwide who use it daily to protect their critical loads since its launch in 2014.
Utilizing eConversion enables operators to mitigate some of the cost and climate impact while continuing to benefit from the highest protection level for critical loads with Class-1 (UL certified). And with the eConversion Savings Meter, customers can check electricity savings on the UPS display.

Customers can still choose to use the legacy Double Conversion mode, but field experience has shown that modern electrical installations do not justify such high permanent use of electricity, the release noted, adding that eConversion is available as a feature in all Galaxy V Series UPSs worldwide.
