What does an uninterruptible power supply do?
An uninterruptible power supply, also sometimes called a ‘battery backup’, is a device that’s used to give you backup power when the mains power or regular supply fails. It can also be used on occasions when the voltage to your business drops below an acceptable level to keep sensitive equipment online.
Think of a UPS device as a form of power protection for your business. Using an uninterrupted power supply means you can keep your devices running for a short time until power is restored. Or, a UPS can ensure that your business computers, equipment and other electronics can be safely shut down, without catastrophic failure from power interruption or power surges.
Uninterruptible power supplies for business
Uninterruptible power supplies can be used for a variety of businesses to provide backup power if there’s an outage. Businesses like data centres, IT companies, factories, warehouses, universities and more will need a fast, effective source of power to keep processes up and running. Standby UPS systems are a crucial component of hospital and medical power systems too.
Using uninterruptible power supply systems with standby generators
Having both a UPS system and a standby generator makes for a truly robust and reliable backup power setup. A diesel generator is an essential component of many business power plans, but having a UPS system in place bridges the gap between the moment of outage and the time it takes for the generator to kick start.
As the generator is starting up, your uninterruptible power supply will convert to battery backup power, which can be essential for keeping computer systems on without forcing a crash or downtime.
Another benefit of using a UPS with a generator is stable energy. Any fluctuations in frequency or output from the generator are then delivered smoothly through the UPS, making sure all your equipment is functioning as it should.
