Proper infrastructure and power management are crucial, especially when it comes to manufacturing industries. Manufacturers depend on power distribution networks to keep their businesses up and running. The moment power cuts out, it can prevent a manufacturer from meeting production goals and customer needs.
Fortunately, there’s an innovative battery backup solution that can help to keep this kind of situation from happening: using a UPS.
What Is a UPS?
An uninterruptible power supply (UPS) is a type of battery backup. It offers an emergency power supply when a facility abruptly loses its primary power source. A UPS is commonly used by data center energy management services and telecommunication services to prevent data loss, financial loss, accidents, and human injury that can be caused by a sudden power disruption.
However, a UPS battery backup isn’t only beneficial for data center energy management services. They can also be used by manufacturers and sales retail to better regulate their facility functions for improved infrastructural support and power management. When manufacturers use a UPS battery backup for their industrial process equipment, they reduce the number of materials that would be wasted in the event of a power outage.
Avoid Job Restarts
With industrial equipment becoming more reliant on computer-based control systems, it becomes more and more important to prevent the power these systems are running on from becoming disrupted. Disrupted power can cause unplanned equipment shutdowns and data loss that can be potentially harmful to the company, especially with one-third of all data worldwide passing through the cloud. A UPS can help to avoid job restarts and preserve the industrial equipment process until the power returns to the facility.
Types of UPS Systems
LDP Associates offers three types of UPS systems including standby/offline, line-interactive, and double-conversion on-line. Standby/offline systems use a DC/AC inverter output and provide battery backup power during voltage sags and surges, blackouts, and other power disruptions.
Line interactive systems use a multi-tap, variable-voltage autotransformer to regulate your transformer’s output voltage. This type of system provides power anywhere from five minutes to several hours with expansion.
Double conversion on-line systems are designed for data center installation services, telecom installations, and more. They’re built for optimal data center power distribution and are capable of converting AC power to DC and back to AC.
What’s more, LDP Associates serves as the exclusive data center partner for APC by Schneider Electric. Schneider offers industrial-grade UPS systems that are capable of being installed and operating in harsh environments like the factory floor so you can feel confident knowing your battery backup system is ready to go at any time.
