Off line UPS, called also Backup or Standby, in normal operation feeds the load from the
Electric utility. Upon power outage it switches to battery operation, feeding the consumers
from internal battery for limited backup time, sufficient to override most power outages.
Should the outage extend beyond battery backup time, an alarm is initiated to allow graceful
computer shut down.
This type of UPS is generally used for personal computers and home office computer systems.

The online UPS , also called Double Conversion UPS, feeds the load constantly from an
internal Inverter which derives its power from mains in normal operation and from batteries
upon power outage. The output of the inverter provides conditioned stabilized power to the
load, isolating it from any voltage excursions, transients and surge phenomena associated with
the utility power line.
UPS systems up to 30KVA are equipped with internal batteries for backup times of about 5 to
10 minutes. Most online systems allow extending battery backup time to several hours by
connecting external battery banks.
The online UPS systems provide a professional solution for all commercial and industrial
applications, additional features such as static transfer switch and parallel operation enhance
power reliability for critical applications and enable future power expansion to meet growing
power demand.
