How long does an uninterruptible power supply last?

Like all other IT equipment, an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) has a finite lifespan. The average expected lifecycle of a UPS is eight-to-ten years. The batteries typically need to be replaced at least three times during that lifespan. Of course, once a UPS reaches the end of its lifespan, it should be replaced to mitigate downtime.

What is a UPS (uninterruptible power supply)?

A UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) is an emergency power system that provides backup power when the main source of power is lost. It gives businesses valuable time to safely power down machinery or keep critical systems online until backup generators kick in.

How long does a ups last during a power outage?

The runtime of a UPS during an outage can range from several minutes to hours, based on a variety of factors. When recommending a UPS solution at Comnet Systems, we never forget to consider the following key variables: 1. Battery Capacity

How do you choose an uninterruptible power supply?

When choosing a uninterruptible power supply, IT teams can evaluate two criteria. One is the life of the unit itself – up to ten years. The second consideration is batteries. Every UPS unit has a battery, which as mentioned, must be replaced up to three times.
