In today’s world of high-speed technology and usage of sophisticated equipments, uninterruptible power supply is most essential and became inevitable one. The increased usage of electronic and other sophisticated equipments such as Computers, Audio System, Video Systems, Medical and Air Conditioners have brought necessity of using UPS, Inverters and Stabilizers according to the requirement of customers, both ready-to-use and customized one.
An Uninterruptible Power Supply or UPS, is a device or system that maintains a continuous supply of electric power to certain essential equipments that must not be shut down unexpectedly which cause severe consequences to customers at vital moments. The utility equipment is inserted between a primary power source, such as a commercial utility, and the primary power input of equipment to be protected, for the purpose of eliminating the effects of a temporary power outage and transient anomalies. They are generally associated with telecommunications equipment, computer systems, and other facilities such as airport landing systems and air traffic control systems where even brief commercial power interruptions could cause injuries or fatalities, serious business disruption or data loss.
Online UPS converts AC power to DC and then converts the DC back to AC to power the connected equipment. The batteries are directly connected to the DC level. This effectively filters out line noise and all other anomalies from the AC power for level 9 protection. An additional benefit of this technology is in the continuity: in all 9 problem conditions, the system remains in the same operating mode. Relative to other UPS topologies there are efficiency losses due to the double conversion of all of the power the load requires. Technological improvements have resulted in efficiencies of 94%, which gives this technology some advantages over other types that offer fewer modes of protection for the sake of 1 or 2% more in efficiency in some modes.
Meaning that the battery is not engaged until a power outage occurs, offering level 1 protection against power failures only. These are the cheapest variety of uninterruptible power supplies and are intended only for the home user.
In the Line Interactive UPS design, the battery-to-AC power converter (inverter) is always connected to the output of the UPS. Operating the inverter in reverse during times when the input AC power is normal provides battery charging.
When the input power fails, the transfer switch opens and the power flows from the battery to the UPS output. With the inverter always on and connected to the output, this design provides additional filtering and yields reduced switching transients when compared with the Standby UPS topology.
In addition, the Line Interactive design usually incorporates a tap-changing transformer. This adds voltage regulation by adjusting transformer taps as the input voltage varies. Voltage regulation is an important feature when low voltage conditions exist, otherwise the UPS would detect a power
failure and switch to battery powered mode. Eventually the battery might become discharged and fail to power the load. Additionally, more frequent usage of the battery could reduce battery life or cause premature battery failure.
The ability to correct low or high line voltage conditions make this the dominant type of UPS in the 0.5-5kVA power range.
