Green Cubes (formerly branded as UNIPOWER) Invests in the Future: Announces Faster Delivery Times of AC/DC Power Solutions

Rugged, High-Temp Battery Chargers for Utility, Communications and Industrial Applications First to Benefit from Shorter Lead-Times

Green Cubes (formerly branded as UNIPOWER) LLC, a world-leading supplier of industrial AC and DC power systems, announces a new corporate initiative to invest in resources that are decreasing lead times and providing an easier order process for its highly reliable AC/DC power solutions. Known industry-wide for its product quality and longevity, this new program is designed to assist customers with time-critical delivery needs.

“We have recently invested in state-of-the-art testing equipment and process improvements to upgrade our manufacturing so that we can deliver our products more quickly to our customers – in as little as two weeks for many products and configurations,” said John Ely, vice president of marketing for Green Cubes. “We are also investing in our technical support and field service teams to ensure the highest level of customer satisfaction from pre-order to post-sale assistance.”

The first product lines to benefit from the faster delivery times are Green Cube’s ARE-M Series Ferroresonant Chargers and ARE-S Series SCR-Controlled Chargers designed for harsh environments. Built from the ground up to operate in remote and demanding outdoor applications, both the ARE-M and ARE-S models operate in a wide temperature range from 32ºF to 122ºF (0ºC to 50ºC). Incorporating long-life components, the low-maintenance chargers have demonstrated their dependability in decades of reliable operation across the globe. They feature easy serviceability that saves time and costs – essential for communications and industrial power systems located in isolated locations, including offshore operations. With single-phase AC input, users can select from 24, 48 or 130VDC output with 144W to 6500W for the ARE-M Series and 48 or 130VDC output of 288W to 9750W for the ARE-S Series.

“Our robust ARE-M and ARE-S battery chargers offer ideal solutions for utility, communication, and industrial power systems that are often located in remote settings,” explained Ely. “Some of our chargers have been in the field for 30 years – a testament to their high reliability, long life, low operating cost, easy-to-service modules and wide operating temperature range. These qualities make our ARE Series the go-to choice for power systems located in challenging environments – reducing truck rolls and other expensive service costs. With our upgraded manufacturing support, getting our battery chargers to customers faster to support their product rollouts makes them even more desirable.”
