WHY SHOULD YOU USE THE UPS?

You’re considering between UPS or generator?

The increasing speed of urbanization is associated with the increase in demand for electricity. However, the national electricity grid did not meet the demand, leading to a shortage of electricity, power outage and prolonged alternative power cuts. Therefore, to use electrical equipment stably and continuously, we immediately think of the solution that is backup power source ... There are many product lines in the market such as generators or UPS, electric stimulators....Which one should we buy? Today T.A.T will compare the advantages and disadvantages of generators and UPS to help you in making choices the ones suit your needs.

Generators are probably not necessary to introduce because it has become quite familiar to consumers. How about UPS?

UPS – a device which is capable of supplying power over a certain period of time is equivalent to its capacity to maintain continuous operation of the electrical equipment without interruption when the electricity line is in malfunction.

They are equipped with internal batteries that can be used for many devices with different capacities ranging from small capacity devices such as computers, cameras, and rolling machines to large capacity devices such as production lines, large server…

These are some things for those who do not know what UPS (UPS) is, and now we come to the main problem of comparing two devices: UPS and generators.

The first is the type of energy that they use

- Generators: Using the main energy source of gasoline, high-capacity machines use diesel fuel.

- Uninterruptible power supply: The energy is the previous automatically stored power by batteries.

==> For UPS, in case of power outage, the fuel is available to immediately operate but for generators, it may take some time to buy gas or oil.

Output power source

- Generators: square wave is generated by explosion engine.

- UPS: Standard sine waves have frequencies from 50 to 60 Hz

==> Uninterruptible power supply for cleaner electricity compared to generator.

The degree of impact on the environment

- Generators: Causing great noise and not suitable for use at night. Due to the use of fuel as gasoline, oil, when operating, will create toxic emissions to humans. Therefore, they should not be used in places with narrow spaces.

- Uninterruptible power supply: the motor operates smoothly without noise (only very small fan noise). The sealed battery does not require maintenance without odor

The level of danger at work

- Generators: Using flammable fuel so that there are more dangerous.

- Uninterruptible power supply: Using batteries that are capable of causing a fire if it is short-circuited (short-circuited) of two battery terminals.
