Are We An Electricity-Surplus Nation?

As per the facts on Wikipedia, India is the third-largest consumer of electricity in the world. Not only that, but we are also the third-largest producer of electricity. As of March 2020, the national electric grid has an installed capacity of 370.106 GW.

The number sounds impressive, but how does that translate in terms of India being an electricity-surplus nation? For the simple consumer, that question will translate as “How often will I have to endure power cuts?”

The reality is that India is always facing a deficit of electricity. In spite of the numerous government policies, electricity production is unable to meet its target. Besides that, there are a plethora of woes that are plaguing the electricity sector in India according to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electricity_sector_in_India#Problems_with_India's_power_sector

Three UPS in Different sizes

  • Inadequate coal supply
  • Poor connectivity and infrastructure
  • Inadequate build up measures
  • Unequal pricing of electricity
  • Debts due to giveaways of free electricity
  • Unreliable and intermittent power supply to residential areas
  • The rising number of idle power stations
  • Lack of last-mile connectivity between consumers

The unequal distribution of power between all electricity consumers is one of the reasons for the erratic power supply. This is one of the main factors that drive the demand for other temporary sources of electricity like the UPS, inverter, and diesel generators.

The Rise Of The UPS And Inverter Market

Wikipedia facts state that there are over 10 million households across India that rely on the ever-reliable UPS as back-ups in case of load sheddings and monthly power shutdowns. UPS imports run to the tune of nearly $2 billion per year.

It takes no rocket scientist to conclude that the mounting demand for electricity and the yawning gap in supply and distribution are the driving factors of the UPS and Inverter industries. What else are the factors besides this?

  • The explosion and expansion of the IT sector have to be acknowledged as one of the main drivers of the industry.
  • IT-enabled services, increase in private telecom industries, expanding banking sectors, financial services, and insurance companies.
  • Erratic electricity supply in semi-urban and rural areas.
  • Increased consumerism of power-driven gadgets like mobile phones, laptops, tablets, gaming consoles, and PCs.
  • Increase in the use of portable power inverters.

Pollution is also seen as an influencing factor that drives the demand for UPS and inverters. In New Delhi, diesel generators have been banned due to the sharp rise in pollution levels. As the only alternative source, the UPS has turned out to be the savior in many households and businesses across the capital.

UPS and Inverters: The Ever-Reliable Source of Power

The UPS and inverter market in India has witnessed exponential growth and there is nothing that will hinder it in the foreseeable future. There has been an increasing demand for inverters in the industrial sector too.

The stinging truth behind this is the pathetic, unreliable state of our national grid that is inadvertently pushing the demand for temporary power sources. Besides, there is more awareness of the need for backup sources. There is also the likelihood of an increase in power cuts. Industries simply cannot afford to sit through power outages. It is a sheer loss of time and money.

 

The Advantages Of Having A Reliable Inverter And UPS

  • When there is a power outage, they seamlessly provide power to the connected electric devices and appliances.
  • They are silent and do not give off poisonous fumes like the diesel generator.
  • They are more affordable especially for families that run on a tight budget.
  • UPS and inverters require only an annual or biannual maintenance. It saves you from all the hassles that come with maintaining a diesel generator.
  • They are compact and don't take up as much space.
  • They are designed to handle fluctuations in electricity and protect your gadgets from the unpredictability of the power supply.
  • Inverters are also designed to constantly check the incoming voltage for spikes and electromagnetic interferences.
  • The latest model of inverters come with power-saving features to prevent wastage of electricity.

Covid-19 Lockdown: Rebound Of The Inverter Industry

The Covid-19 situation has caused stagnation in all the industries with no end of this woe insight. However, it is reassuring to know that things are looking good for the UPS and inverter industry in the post lockdown scenario.

What can be expected?

  • There will be a huge demand for replacements of auto batteries.
  • Battery discharge issues due to automobiles sitting idle for a long time.
  • A surge in demand for servicing of batteries both from the automobile and industrial sectors.

What are the positive outcomes of this situation for the inverter industry?
COVID 19 LockdownThe CEOs of leading inverter and battery industries are predicting a positive rebound of this sector in the post lockdown period. Rough estimates predict that the automotive industry alone could contribute to more than 50% of total revenues. The replacement of worn out and defunct batteries may account for 45% of the revenue.

Experts believe that the demand for automotive batteries and replacements in the industrial sector will help to sort out the stagnation of the inverter industry.

The other positive aspects are:

  • The additional demand for power backup in communication networks, health facilities and data centres (especially the ‘work from home option’) can be expected to drive the sales.
  • With all sectors and industries raring to be up and working after a prolonged state of idleness, it could create a demand for new power backup installation and the servicing of already existing backup systems.

Hence, there will be a slow but sure rise from this grim situation for the inverter industry. If your car battery has died down and you need a replacement, Nantech has the right solutions for you.

What Are The Business Opportunities That Come Hand In Hand With EV's?

Electric Vehicles Are Going To Be The Norm In The Coming Years

With climate change knocking on our doors, the world is waking up to the need of shifting to vehicles that come with environmental benefits. Electric vehicles are, therefore, the answer. They not only use fewer resources, which lessens our dependency on the planet but also keep the air clean. It is why EVs are expected to dominate the road in the coming years.

With electric cars becoming the norm, it opens up a plethora of business opportunities for you to cash in, especially in automotive hubs like Chennai. One example is the electric vehicle charging solutions in Chennai. There is a world of opportunities that come hand in hand with EVs. Let’s take a look at some of them.

EV charging solutions in Chennai:

Electric Charging For Car

The biggest and most apparent business that one can invest in with EVs is charging stations. Because the battery of an electric car takes a lot of time to charge, it opens up free time for the car owner, which you can leverage upon. Even at the fastest with superchargers in the mix, an EV will take 50 minutes to reach full charge.

It is these 50 minutes you can utilize by offering customers a lounge, café or shop where they have a snack and buy something while they wait for the car to charge. The beauty of setting up an EV charging solution is that not only do you earn from the battery recharge but also from the extra spending customers do to kill time!

Battery Scrapping & Final Mile Connectivity Businesses

Battery Re-utilisation:
Electric vehicle charging in charging station

Right now, the battery of a two-wheeler is expected to have 1000 charge cycles. This is an estimate for a well-cared lithium-ion battery. It means within two to five years, the owner of the bike or scooter will have to replace the battery.

Given that by 2030, EVs are evaluated to penetrate the global market in tens of millions. In India, there is going to a particular surge in two-wheeler EVs. What does that mean? There is going to be mountains of discarded batteries and here lies the business opportunity.

Most EV batteries, though not fit for vehicular use, are still not completely dead. They can be used in a power bank, which is like a farm where disused batteries are kept to store and house energy for other purposes. These power banks are utilized for applications like propping up the grid of wind or solar farms. Reusing the battery is not the end of the opportunity. EV batteries can also be scrapped to recycle metals such as aluminium, copper, and steel.

Final Mile Link:

There is no doubt electric vehicles come with a host of advantages, but there is one drawback to them. They are not meant for long trips, especially right now when EV charging solutions are too few and far between. The battery of an electric car doesn’t last for extended hours.

The easy solution is to take public transport to your destination city, state or country and for the last mile, you can hire an electric bike or car. Therefore, the business opportunity here is the final mile link. The trick to making a success of this business is to geo-fence the vehicles so that they are not taken beyond a specific range and misused.

Battery Swaps Instead Of Charging

The last business opportunity we discuss in this article that electric vehicles represent is battery swap hubs. While electric vehicle charging solutions are great, there are moments when you don’t have the time to wait for a battery to recharge. A quicker and more efficient method is to stop by a battery charging station, remove your discharged battery and replace it with a fully charged one.

Infographic image showing ev charging and battery swap solutions

Essentially, you are swapping batteries. There is a massive potential for battery replacement hubs in India because two-wheelers are more popular here. And it is bikes and scooters that come with batteries that can be replaced in a nifty second. All you will need is a station with a permanent stock of fully-charged batteries that you can rent for a given price. A few hurdles you’ll have to cross in this business, like with any other, is to keep battery design in mind. Battery manufacturers don’t use a standardized method, so each two-wheeler will need their specific brand of battery. As long as you keep a stock of all kinds of batteries, you can overcome this challenge.

Simple Solutions To Most Prevalent Inverter Battery Issues

Inverter Battery Woes? Let Us Help You Solve It

Inverters in Chennai are essential. No home or office can do without them because a single power cut means all the gadgets and appliances; we rely on every day become useless. Inverters provide the power back-up necessary for a continued supply of electricity to them.

But like any other machine, inverters are also prone to common problems. In this article, we explore the solutions to the most common issues that crop up in inverters and batteries.

Why Is Your Inverter Not Turning On?

These are the possible reasons along with remedies why your UPS or inverter is not switching on:

  • The battery is not connected. Ensure that the connection is made correctly.
  • The terminals of the battery are loose. Make sure that they are tight and precisely fit.
  • The terminals of the battery are loose. Make sure that they are tight and precisely fit.
  • The inverter is tripped. In this case, all you need to do is press the reset button on it.
  • The battery has a fault. The solution is to replace it.
  • The terminals are rusty. Clean out the corrosion for the inverter to work suitably.
  • The terminals are reversed. Use the inverter manual to connect the right terminals.
  • The battery has become very weak. You will need to charge it. In case the battery is very old, you might need to replace it.
  • The battery is completely discharged. The solution here is to charge for some hours before switching the inverter on.

Why Is Your Inverter Battery Not Charging?

The most common cause of battery not charging is because it is dead. You will have to replace it for the inverter to work. There are three other reasons for it:

  • The fuses have melted. You will need to replace them.
  • The rectifiers are burnt. You will need to take the inverter to the service centre.
  • The battery connection is loose due to corrosion. Clean the terminals to remove rust and then clamp the connection firmly.

Why Is Your Inverter Making A Beeping Noise?

  • An inverter makes a beeping noise when it runs on the power of the battery. The sound is like an alarm that indicates that the inverter has transferred from normal electricity to battery operation. Since this is just an indicator, there is no problem to solve.
  • When the battery of the inverter is very low, it begins to beep. The sound tells you that the inverter will shut down pretty soon unless you charge the battery. The inverter is forced to shut down to prevent the battery from being discharged too much. Generally, the beeping begins two minutes before shut down. The solution here is to recharge the inverter for a few hours. It will stop the beeping sound.

 

  • One more reason your inverter may be making a constant beeping sound is capacity overload. When there are too many gadgets and appliances connected to the inverter, it reaches an overload condition. The beeping is an alarm to inform you of the same. There are two remedies to this problem. One, you can remove all non-essential devices from the inverter. Two, you buy a new inverter that has sufficient capacity to take a load of all the equipment at your home or office. The right size inverter will never beep due to capacity overload.
  • One last reason the battery is beeping is a failed self-test. This is not a common cause, but it does happen. Every 14 days, the inverter conducts a self-test. The test checks the integrity of the battery. If the test fails, the inverter starts beeping. This happens when the battery is near the end of its life. The solution is to get the battery replaced within one month.

In Conclusion:

The reasons described in the post above are some of the most common problems that people face with inverters. Thankfully, a majority of them have simple solutions that can be done at home. If that fails, then an inverter repair centre can resolve them quickly.

That said, it should be noted that each issue, like a beeping sound or not charging, may have a different symptom and underlying reason. For instance, if the inverter is making one, constant beeping noise it means capacity overload. Whereas, if the battery beeps in a continuous manner, then the battery is low. Essentially, you have to pinpoint the symptom to get to the issue.

If you are unable to remedy the problem at home, it is highly advised to take the inverter to a supplier in Chennai. They will have experts who can find the issue in a matter of minutes and give you a solution for it!

How Useful Is The Inverter?

The humble inverter is the device of choice when it comes to dealing with power outages. Of course, there is a generator. It is bigger, and a more powerful device, but it is not something that suits everyone’s purse.

The application of a power inverter extends well beyond supplying electricity during times of power outage. The lifeline of many electronic devices, the inverter is an intrinsic part of electric cars and bikes, industrial motors, power tools, refrigerator compressors, and computer systems.

The omnipresent air conditioner is not on the list, as you can notice. That is what we are here to find out: can your inverter run your air conditioner and save you from the unforgiving heat and power outages during the unbearably hot Indian Summers?
Especially in cities like Chennai where summer temperatures can reach intolerable extremes, this option is nothing short of a blessing.

Understanding How An Inverter Works

Before we can “Yes” or “No” to the first question, it is crucial to understand the basic design of the inverter and the way it functions.

What is the basic design of an inverter and how does it work?

  • Without going into highly complex explanations, we can simply state that the inverter is basically designed to convert Direct Current Voltage (DC) to Alternating Current Voltage (AC).
  • This AC power is what allows the functioning of common household appliances when there is a power outage from the public power grid.
  • Home inverters come with a battery, which is the main Direct Current (DC) source.
  • The battery is connected to the AC power supply in your house that comes from the main power grid.
  • When there is normal power, the battery is continually charged by DC.
  • A transformer and rectifier circuit is used to draw electricity from the AC and charge the battery.
  • In the instance of a power failure, the battery that is fully charged up produces Direct Current. But those devices in your home need Alternative Current (AC) to work or they won't budge!
  • Here’s where an inverter does its job. The batteries supply the DC through an inverter that converts it to AC.
  • Thereby, all the devices are temporarily revived.

How Compatible Is Your Air Conditioner?

An air conditioner used for a 150 square feet room can have a range of 5000 BTUs or British Thermal Unit. An air conditioner this small will utilize about 4 or 5 amps of electricity.
A room that measures beyond 2,500 sq.ft will require an air conditioner with 36,000 BTUs. The amperage for such a powerful air conditioner will be around 15-17 on full power. However, when the unit reaches its set temperature limit, the amperage will be 6 or 7.

Hence, the answer is Yes, the air conditioner can work on an inverter. But there’s a catch. The bigger the capacity of your air conditioner, the bigger the inverter you will need.

Some Important Tips To Keep In Mind

  • A 1 ton A/C will need a 3.5 KVA inverter to run when there is a power outage. Now, that is only the minimum capacity. The capacity of the inverter increases with the tonnage of the A/C.
  • The lifeline of all inverters is the device that supplies power. These devices range from solar panels, hydropower, windmills, and inverter batteries.
  • It must be determined if these power sources have the capacity to generate surge power along with non-stop electricity to keep the air conditioner running.
  • The air conditioner’s cooling time will be longer than normal when it is powered with an inverter.
  • The inverter has to have the capacity to handle the electricity load and power surges. Hence, it is imperative that you make a wise choice, depending on the capacity of your air conditioner and how long you propose to keep it working.

Inverter Batteries – A Comparative Guide

Inverters have become commonplace in homes and commercial establishments in India. In fact, as power cuts became a routine in Chennai, people have started to rely on inverters for continuous power supply to operate household appliances and commercial equipment. Inverters generate power from batteries. Let us learn more about inverter batteries, their types and their characteristics.

Inverter Batteries – What are they?

Batteries are storage devices capable of storing power. Inverters draw out the stored energy during power cuts. Inverters use batteries that are chargeable to generate electricity. They convert AC into DC which can power consumer appliances. They charge the batteries when the power supply is available.
There are different types of batteries in the market. Many consumers are often unaware of these types and are left wondering about which one to choose. When in doubt, it is best to get the opinion from experts. Nantech is a leading inverter tubular battery dealer in Chennai, with several years of experience in the field, and can guide you with the right choice.

Lead Acid Battery

Rechargeable batteries contain two electrodes dipped in an electrolyte solution. The electrodes are essentially two solid plates and the electrolyte is a liquid or a gel. The chemical reaction between the electrodes and electrolytes causes the formation of DC current. These chemical reactions are reversible, making the battery rechargeable. How interesting is that!
In a Lead Acid Battery, lead and lead dioxide are the electrodes, and sulphuric acid acts as the electrolyte solution. Electrodes dipped in sulphuric acid result in a chemical reaction that generates the DC current.
Often, people are misled by various terms used for inverter batteries. You may have heard about lead acid batteries, tubular batteries, flat plate batteries, etc. The commonly known batteries are the lead acid batteries. Let us now break a common misconception. Tubular batteries and flat plate batteries are two types of lead-acid batteries. Yes! People use lead acid batteries and flat plate batteries interchangeably, but in reality, tubular batteries are also lead acid batteries.
Thus, Lead-acid batteries are of two types– Flat plate batteries and Tubular Batteries.

Tubular Batteries Vs. Flat-Plate Batteries

Tubular batteries and flat plate batteries work on the same principle. However, there are some minor technical differences between the two.
The foremost difference is the positive plate. The positive plate is the critical component of the battery. The life of the battery depends on the structure of the plate. It is also a weaker plate and can wear out in the long run on repeated charging and recharging.
The structure of the positive plate is the primary distinguishing feature between the two types of batteries.
In a flat-plate battery, the positive plate is a grid-like structure, and due to the larger surface area, they are prone to corrosion. On the other hand, in the tubular battery, the active material is concealed inside tubes made of fabric replacing the positive plate. This tube ensures lesser corrosion and provides an increased life span to the battery.
Let us now have a comparative study of the two types of batteries. This will enable you to decide the one that fits your needs.

Feature Tubular Batteries Flat Plate Batteries
Electrodes Positive tube, Negative plate Positive, Negative Plates
Battery Life High (lasts up to 5 years) Low (maximum of 3 years)
Efficiency Lesser wastage of power More wastage of power
Cyclic time High Low
Maintenance Low High
Charging time Charges fast Charges slower than tubular
Water Loss Low water loss Need periodic water toppings
Weight Heavy Light
Application Suitable for high-end applications as well as homes Suitable for small homes
Temperature Can operate hassle-free in high temperature Used at recommended temperature conditions
Price Priced higher than Flat plate Economical
Design Complex Simple

In general, tubular batteries have at least 20% more electrical capacity than their flat plate counterparts. They are often called the deep cycle batteries due to their much greater run times.
We have listed the critical differences between the two types of batteries. When trying to buy a battery for residential or commercial use in Chennai, please keep these differences in mind and choose the right one that fits your power consumption needs.

Why Is An Inverter Supplier In Chennai Important For Smart Homes?

Smart home technology has moved from luxury to necessity. People depend upon it for a variety of elements, ranging from switching on/off lights to streaming shows and music. All of these apps and tool work on the backbone of a single device – the router. It is the router that delivers internet connectivity to every gadget in a smart home. Without Wi-Fi, not even a single corner of a Smart Home will be viable.

Connectivity to the net has become so vital that it is the number 1 tech the average person cannot live without. Surveys have proven that Wi-Fi is even more important than the smartphone. 64% of adults accept that living without Wi-Fi for more than a day is not possible. And it makes complete sense because technology has automated everything. From washing machines to security systems, from lighting to refrigerators, every appliance in a home is controlled through the internet.

The need for internet is not limited to managing smart homes. It is pivotal for entertainment too. Majority of households have TVs connected to at least one video streaming platforms such as Disney+, Amazon Fire, Netflix, Apple TV, etc. Given the current trend, a considerable portion of consumers is ‘cutting the cord’ entirely and opting for streaming services rather than cable.

How does an Inverter supplier in Chennai help a Smart home?

Household Energy Meter to record the energy consumptionTo keep the smart home working at all times, a functioning Wi-Fi is required 24x7. The same is necessary for streaming platforms. Let’s say your favourite show on Hotstar releases a new season. You sit down to binge-watch it because who wants cliff-hanger ending! Right when you are on the final episode of the season, power is lost.

It could be full-blown electricity outage or just a small glitch. In both cases, the router loses its internet connection and the show playing on your TV or laptop comes to an abrupt halt. You have to wait for the power to come back, the router to reboot and then restart the streaming of the episode.

In short, even a few seconds of power cut acts like a total buzzkill. Now if you had a battery backup like a UPS from an inverter supplier in Chennai such a rude interruption would not have occurred. If or when there is a power failure, the inverter will keep supplying electricity to the router. In other words, the immediate backup supply ensures that your internet connection is not lost.

Inverters and UPS shield expensive devices!

Besides guaranteeing that every gadget in a smart home is continuously connected to the Wi-Fi, inverters also protect these devices. Cities like Chennai are prone to power surges, i.e., small bursts of high-voltage. These surges can cause irreparable harm to sensitive devices like smart speakers and TCs. Surges can occur due to a number of reasons. Big appliances like refrigerators can produce them when cycling on and off, or weather conditions like storms can create them.

Night View of high rise building protected with inverters from best inverter battery manufacturers in chennaiA reliable UPS from an inverter supplier in Chennai protects any device plugged into it from the damaging impact of high-voltage. Solid backup power supply comes with enough outlets to connect the most essential appliances in a home. The TV, the router and the entertainment centre are just some of them. A high-end UPS will also have USB ports to charge smartphones and other portable devices.

Essentially, a power backup makes sure that all your gadgets are protected and functioning through an outage. If you invest in a smart UPS, then you get one more benefit. These smart power backups alert you to fundamental issues like failing battery. Thus, giving you enough warning to get the battery charged or changed before the next electricity cut happens.

How many inverters you will need and what strength of UPS will be required depends upon the number of gadgets in the home and the location of them. For example, if your router, TV and entertainment unit are all in one place, then a single UPS is enough. If all the appliances are installed in different areas of the house, then more UPS will be necessary.

UPS Solutions: The Need And Vitality Of Them For Businesses

The need for continuous power is increasing for all businesses, be it four people startups or big multinationals. The processes and work of companies are becoming heavily reliant on systems that are always “on.” It is why Emerson UPS plays a role more pivotal than ever before for companies.
Businesses in Chennai face a power outage at some point or the other. Even a few minutes of disruption can create a butterfly effect on the operations. And if the electricity cut is extended, the impact can be a significant loss. To put it, ups in Chennai are not just needed but vital for all businesses.

How Do Uninterruptible Power Supplies Safeguard Your Business?

Compiled below are a handful of advantages a business gains by installing an Emerson UPS, one of the best continuous power supply solutions in the market. They highlight the importance of investing in battery backup.

  • You Stay Powered Up

The obvious and most prominent benefit of UPS backup is break-free power. In the event, the main power of the business fails, UPS kicks in instantaneously. They ensure that your stay is powered up without any lag time. For example, a generator backup takes time to start up after a mains failure. That break of two to three minutes can be equivalent to critical mission failure.
Battery backups allow your company continuous supply by acting as a bridge between primary power and generator start-up. Every device keeps running thanks to the UPS battery circumnavigating any power failure problems.

  • You Stay Protected

It is common to experience power shifts in a day, week, month, or year. The instability in voltage can cause damage to electronic devices and havoc on your firm’s work. Battery backups ensure that stable power output is continuously supplied, keeping your devices absolutely damage-free and protected.

  • You Are Buffered From Surges

Besides monitoring for power failures, Emerson UPS also keeps an eye on incoming voltage. If there is a surge or spike, the battery identifies it and quickly switches to AC power. This switch hinders the spike from reaching any device connected to the UPS and prevents harmful conditions from arising. Once the surge diminishes, the UPS automatically reconnects to the mains power output.

  • You Keep Essential Data

The lack of a UPS often means loss of crucial data when a power outage occurs because devices are cut off from any power. The window battery backups provide is more than enough for employees to save any information or work they are performing, create a backup of essential data and then power down their workstations.

  • You Save Costs

The cost of lost data and time varies from company to company. But for all, it means lower productivity and vial time spent either recovering the information or recreating it. In the long run, even a minute-long power outage faced here or there leads to a major loss for a business. In case the work is sensitive, or the deadline is looming, the loss is even more notable. Installing an Emerson UPS in your office takes away this horrifying scenario and protects your profit margin.

Knowing that a battery backup is an essential investment for any business in Chennai is one part of the narrative. Picking the right UPS in Chennai solution is other. Pick a provider that commits to supporting your IT system. For instance, we not only offer frequent services but also monitor the battery backup. It ensures that UPS always remain reliable.

Moreover, batteries are not one-size-fits-all solutions. For each business and requirement, the UPS needs differ. Only a provider with knowledge, experience and expertise can recommend and install the right system that safeguards your business; we are one of them. Small start-ups, medium-sized businesses or large corporations, we find the right power supply solution for every workplace.

One of the few UPS in Chennai providers who have a complete array of products, we survey your requirements and then recommend the best UPS product fit:

  • Offline UPS is the perfect fit for companies that only utilise desktop systems and are small in size. They are the simplest form of UPS.
  • Line Interactive UPS is excellent for filtering out electrical disturbances as they are always active. They reduce the effect of central power switching to battery power.
  • Double Conversion UPS converts all AC power to DC and then back to AC. This offers the most protection among all battery solutions. For massive corporations who use a lot of devices and workstations, these are the best solution.

Think of UPS for your business in Chennai as a form of insurance. They protect you when an unforeseen circumstance arises out of the blue. They ensure that no negative impact befalls your company.

UPS Manufacturers In Chennai Talk All Things Maintenance

As the season changes in Chennai, the demand for UPS manufacturers will soar. The reason is quite straightforward. Changing weather means a shortage of electricity. It is one bane of living anywhere in India from a metro city like Chennai to a small town like Bhatinda.
But buying a battery backup is not enough. Maintaining the UPS is as crucial, and that’s what the article explores. An essential checklist of things to keep your UPS in tip-top shape.

  • What needs maintenance?

UPS manufacturers say that batteries and the system are the two critical parts. When both work in tandem, they keep the UPS performing for a long time and reliably. What kind of maintenance the two components require and how often is dependent on the type of battery in the UPS and its capacity? To give an instance, standby systems made of sealed batteries rarely necessitate maintenance. On the other hand, flooded-cell cells utilised in double-conversion UPS must be maintained each month. Just because flooded-cells demand care frequently, it doesn’t make them useless. Their performance is 3x that of sealed batteries.

What Does A UPS Manufacturer In Chennai Check During Maintenance?

UPS Manufactures in Chennai

Batteries with flooded-cells are typically found in isolated areas and banks in Chennai. When a technician goes for a check-up, they should:

  • Look for the level of electrolytes – it should be proper.
  • Check for any signs of a leak in the battery.
  • Note the voltage of the room and the current.
  • Make sure the place has a sound ventilation system for optimal operations.
  • Pick individual cells at random and pen down their voltage after testing the electrolytes.
  • Look for dirt accumulation or corrosion on the battery terminals.
  • Keep a record of all measurements so that performance can be gauged.

Besides this monthly check-up of a flooded-cell battery, there should be biannual maintenance that includes:

  • Inspection of battery connections
  • Retorquing the battery connections

This is critical because a loose connection gives way to heat build-up at the terminal, which causes:

  • Decreased battery like
  • Lower system capacity
  • Risk of fire
