1. Introduction
The UPS is a line interactive uninterruptible power system (UPS). When utility input is normal, the UPS would provide surge protection and energy to charge the internal battery. If the utility input is abnormal, the UPS can supply AC power to the loads immediately. (1) Utilizes microprocessor based controls, it will minimizes the dependency on hardware. Beside
this, it maximizes system flexibility and optimizes the assurance of reliability.
(2) Automatic frequency selection to match with utility power. (3) High-grade battery charger to prolong battery’s life and fully charge the battery. (4) With actual overload protection both in line and battery mode.
2. System Description
The product is an advanced line-interactive UPS based on microprocessor control. This means that it operates with the newest technology, high performance and powerful function. The line-interactive UPS is an intelligent protector and provides pure, reliable AC power to the critical loads - protecting them from utility power blackout, swells, sags, surges and interference. The loads could include sensitively medical instruments, computers, telecommunication systems, and industrially automatic equipment. Under power normal condition, the line-interactive design enables the system to adjust and filter power fluctuations continuously and automatically. In the event of power failure, it can provide immediately back-up power from the batteries without any interruption. Complete transference will be achieved within 4m seconds, with no interruption. Beside this, when the utility power is connected, the charger would work automatically even under power switch is OFF. Furthermore, in order to save the battery energy, UPS can be set to turn it off under backup mode if none of the connected loads is operating.
The visual and audible indications of the UPS present the battery’s status including capacity degree
and battery condition. Self-test function let UPS detect a weak battery before it is put into service. The UPS normally perform a self-test at power up and manual self-test condition. Self-test function can be conducted manually with the ON/TEST switch at any time.
The line-interactive UPS and UPSMON series monitoring software (optional kits) make your computer operate intelligent and provide you with the ability of perfect protection of your critical devices. The software is available for most operation systems and is supplied with a communication cable that connects to the UPS.
