Salicru’s enterprising spirit and its internationalisation strategy means that the company is now present in more than 50 countries, offering a quality power supply to its customers. One of these countries is the Philippines, in which the company has been present for over two decades and which is a market of great potential for its products due to the technological development of the country.

Among the latest commercial operations in the country in 2011, one of the most important due to its strategic importance is the supply of high power EMI stabilisers (one of 1,000 kVA, one of 800 kVA and two of 500 kVA) to the company Allegro Microsystems Phil, a large leading manufacturer of electronic components. These units complement an operation started in 2006 (with the sale of two 300 kVA units, one of 400 kVA and one of 460 kVA) and serve to protect the production lines of the company and its machinery from the instabilities of the electrical network.

The longevity of the EMI range has enabled Salicru to gain great experience in the world of stabilisers, a market in which it has been present for over 40 years. Their main applications are in systems in which perfect voltage stabilisation is necessary to supply critical loads of complicated nature: large start-up intensity peaks, a marked reactive character, high powers, etc. The performance of the systems means that they are used in a wide variety of industrial processes that require the use of machinery that is highly sensitive to voltage variations, such as milling machines, presses, lathes, polishing machines, electroerosion machines and electrical activation and control, numeric control, electric ovens and telecommunications repeaters.

To offer a new, more compact and updated appearance, a year ago Salicru chose to revise and update these apparatuses and replace them with the EMI2, which continue to give the traditional large intensity handling capacity, great robustness to deal with prolonged overloading and high output voltage precision (up to ±1%). However, they include some new features that give these units greater added value. The (standard) use of faster, more efficient toroidal autotransformers for the whole power range, which give better output and reply speed; manual maintenance bypass and, in three-phase models, independent adjustment for each phase.

UPS of different ranges and powers have also been commercialised in recent years for hospital such as the Baguio Hospital, Cebu Hospital and the St. Luke’s Medical Center, and for benchmark companies in a wide variety of sectors, mainly foodstuffs, with customers such as Suncrest Foods, Seatrrade Canning and Del Monte; energy companies such as National Transmission Corp. or car companies of the like of Asian Transmission Corp.
