About UPS Uninterruptible Power Supply for Chemical Plants

Why are uninterruptable power supplies important?

In times of increasing relevance of decentral power supplies and decreasing reliability of the power supply networks, uninterruptable power supplies (UPS) become more and more important.

What is uninterruptible power supply (UPS) usage?

Many people associate uninterruptible power supply (UPS) usage as a device in an environmentally-controlled location, quietly ready to protect against any power problems.

What are the environmental issues associated with ups?

Industrial applications yield a wide variety of indoor or outdoor environmental issues including dew point condensation, high humidity, salt fog or airborne contaminants. The type and amount of airborne contaminants must be identified prior to selecting any UPS.

Why do I need a capacitor ups?

• The capacitor UPS is especially designed to prevent PCs, HMIs or PLCs from data loss in case of a power failure. Therefore a special external signal will start the shutdown of the PC, HMI or PLC system. No matter how long it takes to shutdown, the capacitor UPS will supply the power for the system.

Can a ups be used in an industrial versus temperature-controlled environment?

Yet, using a UPS in an industrial versus temperature-controlled (e.g. office) environment is very different and requires awareness of issues in order to provide safe and cost-effective protection for reliable industrial operations. Microprocessors pervade modern-day equipment.

Which ups are best for industrial applications?

Typical computer-grade UPSs, including standby, line-interactive and standard online, are appropriate for office and temperature-controlled applications. However, only an online industrial UPS, like Falcon’s SSG and SSG-RP, is specifically designed for industrial applications. It is also the most cost-effective and reliable solution.
