Always On UPS Systems Introduction Congratulations on your choice of the Always On N Series On-Line Uninterruptible Power System (UPS). The N Series features the very latest, top of the line, microprocessor technology and IGBT transistors for clean, highly regulated, PWM (Pulse Width Modulated) True Sine Wave power.
Always On UPS Systems Product Description 2.1. Theory of Operation The UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) is designed to be installed between utility (commercial supplied power) and your loads. It is used to protect your loads from noticing any power fluctuations (eg. Blackouts, brownouts, over- voltage conditions).
Always On UPS Systems 2.3. Description of Each Block Input Breaker: Prevents the breaker of the distribution panel from tripping when a UPS fault or over-current condition occurs. EMI/RFI Filter: This filter attenuates the electrical noise associated with the polluted utility power to the UPS or noise (THD) generated by the UPS.
Always On UPS Systems 2.4. Special Features Efficiency Optimizer function The Efficiency Optimizer function adds cost effectiveness, minimizes power loss and reduces power consumption. Alternating between bypass and on- line modes is achieved automatically and in accordance with the conditions of the utility AC power.
