Technical FAQs 4

How do I choose a fire-retardant UPS battery & equipment?

Selecting high-quality, flame-retardant UPS batteries and equipment forms the foundation of fire safety. Choose equipment with low internal resistance and minimal heat generation to reduce fault risks.

Is safety a mandatory requirement for UPS?

Ensuring the safety of service personnel is a mandatory requirement for UPS equipment and installations. Safety must be designed in to UPS systems; the only question is how to implement the safety design to achieve the maximum additional benefits in the form of improved system level resiliency.

What is backfeed protection in a UPS system?

The primary purpose of backfeed protection in a UPS system is to prevent conducting hazardous voltages upstream when the supply has been removed from a UPS. Meanwhile, the IEC regulations in Amendment 1:2013 protect personnel and equipment from fault currents that could otherwise cause arcing or fires within the UPS.

Do ups need a fire alarm system?

Additionally, rooms must be equipped with portable fire extinguishers compliant with international fire equipment standards for initial fire suppression. For fire alarms, UPS rooms should have automatic fire alarm systems with signals transmitted directly to the fire control center, adhering to standards like NFPA 72.
