Thread: UPS question

  1. #1

    Default UPS question


    UPS: APC BR650CI

    1. Should I always plug the UPS in the wall outlet (even if not turn on or not in use) or not?

    2. Should I need to have an AVR (like PSU to UPS to AVR to wall outlet) or ok na ang PSU to UPS to wall outlet, and why? naglibog pa ko ani if recommended daw na naay AVR. By the way, if needed pa ang AVR, please pwede ko makabalo what reliable na brand sa AVR. I don't know unsa ng servo motor. wla man ko kita sa PCX og PCQ ana gud. but mo ask pa ko didto this week.

    Thank you daan.

    Ans: Does not matter kung e plug nimo ug dili ang imong UPS basta powered off lng na. If you are using APC UPS then naa nay standby power bisan powered off, so naa nay power consumption guihapon.

    Ans: Ok rman wala nay AVR ang UPS. Why people buy AVR? because of their UPS kay ang UPS naa sad nay power supply we called it SMPS nga mao nay mo charge sa imong battery nga 12volts. We all know nga ang SMPS dali ra kaayo na ma daot when it comes to power surges.

    Kung maniguro sad ka sa imong UPS then buy AVR. It goes like this, AVR protect your UPS then UPS protect your PSU. Ana lng.

    I recommend OMNI AVR.

    @TS: Usually UPS has its builtin protection such as AVR and surge protection so therefore you have all the peace of mind if you have UPS. I would recommend get APC brand coz since I use APC I never had a hardware problem.

    kung ako, depende sa area... kung ang area grabe fluctuation then an AVR would be helpful. otherwise, ok ra UPS...

    agree ko nimo ani bro APC UPS function as an AVR (relay type) + surge protector (input & output) + uninterruptible power supply, nakabungkag na sad ko ani, naa lay drawback gamay pero i think tolerable ra gamay sa electronic loads, (20-30% ang distortion level inig kick in sa UPS)

    Not recommended for audio or inductive loads, pati ang electric fan madunggan ang HUM)

    it`s not really a perfect sine wave inverter, pero nindut sad ni nga brand

    APC BR650CI<<< kani nga UPS sir murag nahulog ni ug all in one na, perfect for PC use, inig low voltage sad mo kick in ang AVR, meaning AVR gyud ni siya ug function kung naa pay kuryente, ma low voltage man o ma high voltage, pero kung mag brown out na, that`s the time mu kick in na sad ang inverter, so I think di na kinahanglan ang AVR ani nga model

    im not really sure sa uban brands bro kay wa pa ko kabungkag hehehe
