Five Steps to the right UPS |
Selecting the right Uninterruptible Power System (UPS) concerns two main functions. Firstly,
protecting your computers and other sensitive loads from damage or loss of data caused by Line
(Mains) power disturbances, and secondly, continuing to power the critical load when the
primary power goes down.
UPS systems provide protection to various power problems. Off-Line systems provide limited
protection and are least expensive, Interactive systems are generally preferred, considering
price/performance, whereas On-Line systems provide almost ultimate protection and are the
most expensive. You are advised to consult UPS Industry prices , before proceeding.
