Uninterruptible Power Supplies
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has published (link is external) a Federal Register Final Rule (FR) amending its test procedure pertaining to Uninterruptible Power Supplies (“UPSs).
2.1 An uninterruptable power supply system (UPS) is defined as a device which for a specific period of time supplies continuous power to radio equipment independent of any power failures in the ship's main or emergency source of electric energy. .2 rechargeable accumulator batteries, complying with the requirements of annex 1.
Uninterruptible power supply standards are established technical frameworks that define the minimum acceptable levels of safety, functionality, and efficiency for UPS systems. These standards are not arbitrary they are the result of decades of research, development, and practical field data gathered by industry experts, scientists, and engineers.
Following is the Version 2.0 ENERGY STAR Product Specification for Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPSs). A product shall meet all of the identified criteria if it is to earn the ENERGY STAR. Static UPS: UPS where solid-state power electronic components provide the output voltage.
The UPS battery capacity is, at all times, to be capable of supplying the designated loads for the time specified in the regulations. 53.3 On restoration of the input power, the rating of the charge unit shall be sufficient to recharge the batteries while maintaining the output supply to the load equipment.
