Power supply interruptions are critical risks for all industrial businesses. This article focuses on the selection of appropriate uninterruptible power supply systems to ensure safe, continuous and secure operations in harsh environments. It focuses on the needs of electrical professionals and the concerns involved in the decision-making and investment process.
Today, the possibility of power supply interruptions has become one of the greatest threats to all manufacturers. To address this, uninterruptible power supply systems serve as a defence against this threat by providing backup power.
That being said, the most common problem encountered by customers is a misunderstanding of the differences between conventional UPS and industrial UPS. There should be no difference at all. Focusing on UPS systems, the key difference to understand will be mentioned below, today. Both can have a significant impact on performance and productivity. Let’s look at the significant differences now:
Physical aspect and settings
Industrial inverters are typically equipped with analogue devices, which is why the instrumentation and man-machine interface are different from a conventional inverter. Thus, due to its complex settings, filtering and other features and functionality, the industrial UPS is also larger than a conventional UPS with similar power ratings. If you work in an industry such as gas/oil, heavy manufacturing or other, you will need an industrial UPS that can handle intense load fluctuations. On the other hand, low-power UPSs meet the needs of less complex IT devices and systems.
Durability – Industrial UPSs have a longer lifespan than conventional UPSs, and their overall lifespan is longer than conventional UPSs. The industrial UPS can power an asset for a longer period of time, as the technology tends to run more slowly with industrial components. Therefore, the industrial UPS system is more durable than the conventional UPS.
In comparison, conventional UPS is designed to provide backup power rather than dedicated power, so the system is less likely to operate for a long period of time.
System mechanization – This is one of the key features of both conventional and industrial UPS. Industrial UPSs and their complications are not only a source of significant problems, but they are also custom designed to meet a customer’s specific requirements, whereas conventional UPSs are more often designed in a straightforward manner and are intended for less sophisticated systems. Therefore, this UPS system is not necessarily and anywhere involved in the complexity of the industrial UPS system.
