1.4Functions
RECTIFIER / BATTERY CHARGER
The rectifier/battery charger transforms the alternating current of the mains supply to direct voltage to maintain the battery in a fully charged state and also supply the inverter.
BATTERY
The battery is an energy reserve that is used by the inverter and the load whenever the mains supply fails.
INVERTER
The inverter changes the direct voltage from the rectifier or from the battery into a three phase sinusoidal alternating voltage for the external supply.
ELECTRONIC STATIC SWITCH
The function of the electronic static switch is to select one of the two sources of alternating voltage and to supply it to the external load. The two sources of voltage supplied to the static switch are the output of the inverter and the reserve supply. In normal working conditions, the static switch supplies the load from the inverter.
SWITCHES
The switches permits maintenance and repair of the UPS, without interrupting the supply to the load.
