Power Protection: Essential for Smooth and Steady Business Operation

Energy consumption is increasing day by day as many big companies and business houses are heavily reliant on electricity to run their business operations. In such circumstances it has become extremely important that power protection devices are appropriately designed to match up with the applications and ensure highest level of power protection and smooth flow of the business operations. Among all the power protection devices used to safeguard the critical devices used across offices, uninterruptible power supply is the most sought after power protection system that powers the attached critical devices during sudden power loss as well as provide protection to vital devices from power problems like spikes and surges.

Uninterruptible power supplies, vital power protection system, are installed between a critical load and its source of power, which is generally a mains power supply. It basically serves two vital functions, offers secure source of power when mains power supply fails and provide clean, stable and regulated power supply in the presence of mains power supply. The second function of UPS i.e. providing clean, stable and consistent power is becoming more significant for the today's business operation, especially the companies that greatly rely on computer and telecommunications technology to function. These equipments are more prone to damage due to power fluctuation and other power problems like sags and surges, which are quite common with raw mains energy.

Disturbance in the mains power supply can cause severe damage and breakdown of sophisticated and critical equipment thereby causing data loss and corruption. Thus, it becomes vital to protect these devices by the most comprehensive range of power protection systems that can ensure complete protection to the devices from major power problems. Uninterruptible power supplies of all the three types, Online, Offline and Line Interactive are considered ideal to offer protection to critical electrical devices. However, their ability to perform these critical functions differs and varies in the degree of security and level of power protection they offer.

Line Interactive and offline UPS are designed to be used for smaller applications like home and small office whereas online UPS is known for offering superior performance, resilience and reliability and are considered ideal to power the loads ranging from critical servers, telecom's PBXs to data centers and complete industrial manufacturing sites. The inverter of this UPS is designed for continuous operation and is classified as voltage and frequency independent. The operation of the inverter is unaffected by the voltage change or by the frequency supplied by the mains power. Thus, Online UPS is the best power protection device that can serve the critical device protection needs of the big organizations and corporate houses.
