UPS Applications – Choosing a UPS by Application

Certain criteria apply across the board; whether you are choosing a UPS for a data centre, industrial application, Police or Ministry of Defence. The best UPS choices, required for your particular situation, will reveal themselves if you answer these three key questions:

• What is my approximate load size in kVA?
• What electrical problems, if any, will my load present to a UPS?
• What are my priorities for protecting the load?

UPS capacity, and your choice of UPS, will very much depend upon the answers you give to these questions. Another important consideration before you choose your power protection solution is how to balance budgetary and space considerations against the criticality of the operational load and flexibility for future growth.

However, Uninterruptible Power Supplies’ PowerWAVE range of UPS have each been designed to suit particular applications and operating environments. From the robust requirements of industrial power protection equipment to the space restrictions and flexibility required by heavily populated and dynamic data centres.
