What does Zener mean?
The term "Zener" has been taken from an electrical element called "Zener Diode". This kind of diode passes the electrical current in one direction and allows the current to switch to opposite direction when voltage surpasses the maximum limit. High power capacity, high accuracy, small size and cost-effectiveness are some of the advantages of using this part in electronic circuits.
Zener diode was invented by Clarence Malvin Zener in 1915 and was named after him
Foundation
Zener engineering company was founded by five graduates from Tehran university in 1981. During Iran-Iraq war with increase of frequent interruption of electricity, our company designed and manufactured surge protectors for appliances such as refrigerator, television and others. In 1983 Zener designed and manufactured a new product to protect devices with 3-phase motors.
Manufacturing first Iranian offline UPS and co-founder of UPS Manufacturer’s Association of IRAN
Zener continued manufacturing various types of surge protectors and industrial panels until the 80’s which the usage of computers in government organizations, banks, etc. was on the rise. Interruption for such systems was a major issue and in 1989 Zener engineering company designed and manufactured the first offline UPS in Iran named Zener UPS and expanded the range of production up to 5kVA.
The after sales service department started to grow rapidly due to considerable growth in the market. The commercial department imported necessary electronic components for UPS production primarily and expanded its activity through importing high power industrial UPS, sealed lead-acid batteries and diesel generators. In 1994 UPS Manufacturer’s Association of IRAN was established with Zener’s participation.
Membership in associations and organizations and acquiring ISO 9001:2008 certificate
From 2000 to 2009, Zener successfully obtained exclusive business partners from famous international brands to provide UPS, battery and generator sets. Zener established department of renewable energy systems in 2009 and accomplished several research studies. Zener is now officially certified by reputable brands to provide solar panels, inverters, solar chargers and related products. In 2011 Zener became an active member of Iran Solar Industry Association, Iran Electrical Syndicate and Iran-Italy Chamber of Commerce. Now with more than 35 years of experience in the field of electronics and more than 60 qualified personnel, we make high efforts to meet and satisfy our clients’ requirements by continuous improvement through various trainings, optimizing procedures and documenting activities. Our ultimate step in achieving this goal was obtaining iSO9001:2008 certificate of quality management system in 2013.
Manufacturing and Job Creation
With the acquisition of the operating license and the production certificate, the factory of this complex started its activity for the re-production of UPS and related equipment. Based on this, the production line of single phase and three phase UPS was re-launched in 2016. With the development of activities and increasing the needs of the domestic market, with the increase in the space of the production line and the supply of the required machinery, the production line of the sealed lead acid battery in 2019 reached the operation stage.
