UPS - Uninterruptible Power Supplies

Full line of Uninterruptible Power Supplies Available A UPS contains batteries that provide backup power to your system in the event of a power outage to give you the time to safely save all open files and gracefully shutdown the system or even continue to work until normal power has been restored. Additionally, most UPSs regulate the power that comes from the original supply (i.e. the wall outlet). These functions offer several advantages

  • Business operations don't stop because the power fails.
    Equipment isn't damaged due to the stress of another hard start-up cycle.
  • Valuable data isn't lost due to a user forgetting to save the file or if data had not been flushed from cache.
  • The UPS eliminates sags, surges, spikes, noise, and other electrical interference that can damage equipment and data or interrupt operations.
  • The UPS provides a "clean" source of power, eliminating noise that can cause interruptions in operations or data loss.

What size UPS do I need?

The UPS you need depends on the load, or amount of A/C, your system is pulling and the equipment the UPS will support. You can determine what you need by following these steps:

·  Determine all the hardware items that will be connected to the UPS.

·  Determine the amp rating for each hardware item and add the ratings together. You can find the amp ratings on the back of the equipment.

·  Multiply that total by 120 Volts (for domestic applications) or 220 Volts (for international applications) to get the Volt Amp (VA) rating .

·  Request a UPS that EXCEEDS your VA total.
