 | "We live and work in a difficult time, when import substitution from a gradually developing trend becomes a vital survival condition for the economy of the whole country. We have long and purposefully developed the Russian alternative to Western products in the field of engineering infrastructure for data centers and have achieved considerable success along the way. By joining forces with other domestic developers, we can give this trend a fundamentally new acceleration, "says Alexey Suvorov, CEO of the combined company. |  |
In 2021, C3 Solutions received a state subsidy for R&D from the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation, which it directed to the creation of new models of BRP (power distribution units) and the development of new markets. In particular, the company began developing solutions for a "smart" city (video surveillance and stop modules) and microcircuits: it is planned to use Russian-made Baikal processors for their manufacture.
In 2022-2023, C3 Solutions intends to increase production by at least 100%. In the future of five years, the company also plans to maintain high growth rates − at least 80-100% annually. Sources of development will be access to new segments, IT market as well as support for practice. M&A

Russia has created a line of equipment for data centers to replace Schneider Electric
The manufacturer of domestic equipment for data centers, SiTri Solutions, has shown an updated line of its equipment, which now includes, in addition to mounting racks and UPS, cabinets for building micro-data centers, and SCS, and air conditioning systems, and even monitoring systems for climatic parameters of data centers. In general, the solutions developed by the company can already compete with the equipment of companies such as Schneider Electric (in 2022, Russian assets were sold to local managers, and the company was renamed Systeme Electric), Powercom, Delta Electronics and others.
Engineering equipment was demonstrated in mid-November at the C3 Solutions Fashion Engineering Night show, organized for the largest Moscow and regional integrators and distributors.
The new products demonstrated at the show were air conditioners with a power of 5.5 to 120 kW, made in the form of cabinets for installation in the data center, installation of in-row climatic equipment (their power varies from 12.5 to 62 kW) and models for cooling equipment right inside the racks. In the basic configuration, all of them come with an inverter compressor with heated crankcase, EEV, EU fans and PTS-tans. For easy control, an SNMP card, a phase control relay and a touch screen are installed in the climatic equipment. In this case, the external unit can be operated at temperatures from -40 ˚S to + 45 ˚S.
The company presented new models of uninterruptible power supplies with service support from SiTri Solutions. New solutions for protection against power outages will be able to ensure the continuity of industrial and production processes, prevent the failure of expensive equipment. The devices are designed for industrial enterprises, commercial and government organizations. They will complement the modular architecture already available in the UPS portfolio, focused on protecting server equipment in data centers.
In addition, SiTri Solutions has updated the line of power distribution units (PSUs). Two series of PM7000 and PS 7000 products have been released with a new monitoring module that allows you to control each outlet separately. In addition, the BRP series PM6000 built on the domestic Baikal processor - it is designed to build intelligent data centers in accordance with security requirements. Equipment of fully domestic production, be in the register of the Ministry of Industry and Trade and can be used, among other things, for state customers and for critical information infrastructure facilities.
To control climatic and temperature conditions in data centers, the company has developed a specialized device - an Inline meter, which can be installed both in the mounting cabinet itself and on its case. This is a set of sensors that allow you to monitor both the power three-phase load and environmental parameters. Moreover, you can do this not only visually - on the built-in display, but also remotely - using special software.
In general, it can be noted that SiTri Solutions offers the maximum amount of equipment for both commercial and corporate data centers. Moreover, all iron components of Russian production, and electronics - including Chinese. The company's production facilities are located in Kostroma, Ryazan, Belgorod, Tashkent and Shenzhen.
At the event, SiTri Solutions also announced the improvement of its partner and pricing policies. A regulated number of distributors, clear and understandable rules for working in the channel will allow you to comply with the interests of all participants in the delivery process. The updated product line will enable partners to collaborate with SiTri Solutions in a single window, providing customers with the full range of engineering equipment they need.

| | We strive to restructure our production process in such a way that, in all circumstances, we fulfill our obligations to customers and minimize the impact of external factors, − said Daria Aleksankina, CEO of C3 Solutions. - As many people know, our first production site was previously located in Shebekino, Belgorod region, and in November 2022 we were forced to move further from the border to Belgorod. Later, we decided to further reduce the load on Belgorod capacities and produce our products in the Kostroma, Ryazan and Moscow regions. An additional advantage of this step was the ability for us to optimize logistics flows in central Russia, since the facilities of many of our large customers are located there. | |
