When UPS power systems operate under normal conditions with mains electricity available, the system converts AC power from the mains into DC power to charge the battery. As a backup power source, it can be utilized during power outages.
- Load Management
When using UPS uninterruptible power supplies, it is vital not to indiscriminately increase the rated load with high power consumption or operate at full load for extended periods. UPS systems cannot permanently replace primary power sources. Increasing the load excessively can lead to host failures and even damage the inverter.
- Ambient Temperature
The indoor environment for UPS systems must remain clean, with battery operation temperatures ideally around 25°C. Outdoor temperatures should be maintained between +15°C and +30°C. Low temperatures can reduce battery capacity. For every 1°C decrease, the capacity diminishes by 1%. Prolonged high-temperature operation can halve the battery lifespan for every 10°C increase.
- UPS Monitoring
A comprehensive UPS power room monitoring system comprises front-end devices, user-end/service-end apps, and PC screens. Users can log in via the app/PC to monitor UPS equipment’s real-time operational status and relevant parameters. This allows for easy monitoring of system performance and data on mobile and large screens. Alerts are synchronized in case of anomalies.
- Parameter Configuration
When setting parameters on the host, there are specific ranges to adhere to, especially for battery parameters, which should remain within a certain fluctuation range.
- Battery Maintenance
When handling conductive connection bars and output lines, safety precautions must be taken. Insulated tools should be used, and insulated gloves should be worn. Operators should stand on an insulating board during operations, especially when dealing with output terminals, using anti-touch methods if necessary.
- System Startup
During mains power outages, when starting up UPS power systems for operational or testing purposes, initiate the UPS host first before loading or testing. The initial load current surge during startup can impact the battery, causing temporary overload or even damaging the inverter.
Users should familiarize themselves with the operational practices of UPS power systems. The main operational modes include normal operation, battery operation, bypass operation, and bypass protection.
