Franek Technologies and Adairs Electric have entered into a business relationship to provide turnkey power protection solutions for large-scale laboratory installations
This relationship offers clients the distinct advantage of hiring a team of specialists that, from inception to installation, handle all of a laboratory's unique power protection requirements.
The Franek Technologies and Adairs Electric team designs, develops, and installs custom power protection solutions that protect laboratories 24/7 against power glitches and outages that can cause costly damage to expensive instrumentation, irreplaceable data, as well as significant lost productive time.
"Our collaborative relationship with Adairs Electric enables us to be a unique single source for large-scale laboratory power protection," explains Ray Hecker, vice president, Franek Technologies.
"We are able to offer turnkey laboratory solutions including certified instrumentation load analyses and protection, emergency generator power system sizing and selection, and completed electrical installation.
"In working with a recognised and respected contractor, such as Adairs Electric, we are able to secure all necessary permits, plan check approval, equipment commissioning, and final project sign-off for truly integrated turnkey solutions".
Franek Technologies began working with Adairs Electric in 2002 when they developed a scaleable 100% emergency power back-up solution for Dynamic Concepts (DCI), a premier supplier of global Internet-enabled products and services.
On this project, the experts at Franek Technologies custom-engineered a comprehensive power protection infrastructure to protect the entire facility and all assets within its high-performance network, through which terabytes of data flows daily.
Franek Technologies then worked with the electrical specialists at Adairs Electric to provide seamless installation.
The teaming of Franek Technologies and Adairs Electric resources provided DCI with a timely completion of its turnkey power solution to protect the integrity and security of its customer's data, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, without any unscheduled switch over time.
Another large-scale installation that Franek Technologies and Adairs Electric completed recently was at the City of Hope's Beckman Research Institute.
The team of experts provided consultation, design, and installation of highly-sensitive instrumentation, including Waters Micromass Quattro Ultima LC/LC/MS (liquid chromatography/liquid chromatography/mass spectrometer) and PerkinElmerSciex Protof 2000 orthogonal Tof Maldi MS (time of flight, matrix assisted laser desorption ionisation, mass spectrometer).
As a result of this collaboration, the pioneering biomedical research center is now protected from power outages and glitches, even as short as 30 milliseconds.
"Working with Franek Technologies has opened new doors for us at Adair's Electric, such as our work with the City of Hope," states Rik Adairs, president, Adairs Electric.
"Together we can offer comprehensive power protection services that other vendors can't provide.
"From the initial consultations to completed installations, we partner with our clients to ensure their significant investment in equipment is protected and this is what sets our team apart.
"We look forward to working with Franek Technologies on many projects in the future."
