The most important tips to avoid wasting your company’s time and money:
- Make sure the Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) is UL, cUL or CE approved/certified to operate reliably in industrial temperatures: -4°F to 131°F (-20°C to 55°C). For extreme temperature applications, -22°F to 149°F.
- Make sure it’s an industrial online UPS. There are three basic types: standby, line-interactive and online. Some ‘industrial’ UPS are line-interactive. They can be effective in non-critical applications, but cannot in many others. To learn the basics, read UPS Comparison guide.
- Make sure the manufacturer has the technical knowledge and team availability to assist you buying the right UPS (size, type, required features/modifications) for your specific application.
