UPS<br />

UPS topologies - a brief overview<br />

Passive Standby<br />

The passive standby system channels<br />

the incoming mains power, via a filter,<br />

directly to the load. As soon as the<br />

incoming power is outside tolerance,<br />

the UPS switches to battery operation.<br />

B<br />

The line-interactive system channels<br />

the incoming mains power, via an AVR<br />

- Automatic Voltage Regulator, directly<br />

to the load. Compared to off-line,<br />

the system can handle much larger<br />

voltage variations before switching to<br />

battery operation.<br />

Double Conversion<br />

Input and output are completely<br />

separated: the output converter (DC<br />

to AC, or = to ~) continuously supplies<br />

the critical load with a completely<br />

new, regulated and clean sine wave<br />

output. No switching takes place<br />

when the incoming mains power gets<br />

outside tolerances. A bypass switch<br />

automatically transfers the load to the<br />

mains when the output converter is<br />

unable to supply the load (e.g. due to<br />

overload or overtemperature).<br />
