A total of 3 sets of 2200kW/2750kVA container‑type high‑voltage generator sets driven by Yuchai YC16VC3600‑D31 engines are deployed for the chip factory project. The total installed capacity reaches 6.6MW. These high‑power containerized gensets act as critical emergency backup power equipment for the chip manufacturing plant. Adopting Yuchai self‑developed high‑end YC16VC3600‑D31 high‑power diesel engine, the generator sets boast excellent power performance, high operational stability and strong environmental adaptability. They can effectively guarantee continuous and reliable power supply for core production loads and support the safe, long‑term stable operation of precision manufacturing facilities in the chip factory.
1. Background
Chip manufacturing belongs to high‑precision advanced manufacturing. Chip factories are equipped with a large number of sophisticated lithography, etching and testing equipment, which impose extremely stringent standards for power supply stability, continuity and emergency backup capability. Chip production processes are highly continuous. Unexpected municipal grid fluctuations or sudden power outages will directly lead to production interruption, scrap of expensive wafers, heavy economic losses, and even potential damage to high‑value precision core equipment. To eliminate risks caused by power interruption and satisfy the strict power redundancy requirements of semiconductor production workshops, this chip factory project adopts 2200kW/2750kVA high‑voltage container‑type generator sets powered by Yuchai YC16VC3600‑D31 engines. With reliable starting performance and stable power output, the gensets can respond rapidly to mains power failures, maintain uninterrupted power supply for key chip‑manufacturing equipment, and underpin the stable and continuous production of the chip plant.
