Assessing your Backup Power Supply needs
Businesses cannot rely on AC supply alone for efficient production and high quality performance. The importance of backup power supply cannot be underestimated. Businesses need to continue functioning smoothly even during power outages. Having backup supplies to power computer systems is critical for the storage and operation of critical data. Further, large corporations invest accordingly into maintaining effective backup systems that support heavy machinery as well.
Power backup systems are used across different industries such as:
- Laboratories
- Hospitals
- Telecommunication companies
- Mechanized manufacturing units
The size of the backup power supply depends on industry-specific requirements. Of late, the backup power supply systems have also crossed over to the household section. Individuals often use backup power systems at home.
Types of Backup Power Supply
Backup power supply includes power generators or stand by UPS (uninterrupted power supply). A UPS is a must-have as it lets you continue working despite power outages.
Other types of backup power supply are:
- Power generators: Installing power generators ensures constant power availability totally independent of the AC supply. These devices generate power for business operations. This, in turn, is fed into the main power supply channels through trigger and switching devices.
- UPS: These devices store power as their main reserve when the main supply is on. The UPS automatically begins supplying reserve power to all the attached equipments in case of a power outage.
Some high-end backup power supply systems use advanced technologies such as flywheel energy storage and hydrogen-fuel cells.
Backup Power Supply Technology
Backup power supply systems (specifically, the UPS) rely on three different technologies to carry out their operations:
1. Offline/standby: This is a very basic form of backup power supply. It protects the user from main supply fluctuations. It also features a voltage transient clamping device to measure main supply. When the voltage falls below a pre determined level, the UPS begins to supply reserve power. Also, standby UPS systems are not always reliable since they do not provide battery monitoring functions.
2. Line interactive: These are similar to the standby systems, but offer better quality main supply input through an advanced filtering process.
3. Online / double conversion: These high-end UPS systems can rectify noisy power environment. They have a huge power storage capacity and offer a clean input supply. This can make them highly expensive.
The backup power supply system is necessary to ensure overall performance, dependability and productivity. As an authorized dealer of top manufacturers, CyPower offers access to more than 5000 power supply units. Research, inquire and make an informed choice by visiting www.cypower.com
