How to test UPS battery



UPS or UPS devices are used in many mission-critical power applications. The task they are carrying out in the event of power failure is priceless.



Is the UPS specification correct?

You must ensure that your UPS has sufficient capacity so that it can carry the complete power load within the specified outage time. If you are not sure, you'd better call UPS service provider or OEM. Remember that any additional equipment added to the original infrastructure will reduce the operation time of the UPS.



For example, in the hospital theater, if additional lighting is added to the existing infrastructure, the operation time of UPS will be reduced according to the power consumption of operating lighting during power failure.





maintain

Regular professional maintenance is required to ensure the UPS is in good condition. Maintenance may involve UPS service technicians visiting the site and evaluating the current operation time.



It is important to remember that as you grow older, your battery capacity will decrease. It is necessary to check the capacity regularly, especially when UPS supplies power for critical mission stations such as emergency communication.



All external battery packs also need to be tested.



Individual UPS manufacturers will have detailed installation and operation manuals that need to be compiled to retain the original warranty and efficient UPS system.

Battery

The battery is the main component of any UPS. The operation efficiency of UPS depends on the condition of battery; Therefore, it is important to ensure that you have a high-quality battery that can provide the required running time. If you are not sure about the battery life, please consult a UPS professional who can provide support.



A battery load test is recommended to evaluate the absolute battery capacity at any given time. However, if the battery reading can be obtained and recorded during the whole service life of the battery system, the impedance test is a fast, simple and accurate choice. Impedance readings can be completed in live circuits, so this will save a lot of valuable on-site time
