About Us

An uninterruptible power supply (UPS) is a device that sits between an A/C outlet (i.e. a wall outlet or power strip) and an electronic device (such as a computer, server, or phone equipment) to prevent power disturbances (outages, sags, surges, spikes, noise, etc.) from affecting the performance and life of the electronic device and vital data.

A UPS contains batteries that provide backup power to your system in the event of a power outage to give you the time to safely save all open files and gracefully shutdown the system or even continue to work until normal power has been restored. Additionally, most UPSs regulate the power that comes from the original supply (i.e. the wall outlet). These functions offer several advantages.

Business operations don't stop because the power fails. Equipment isn't damaged due to the stress of another hard start-up cycle.

Valuable data isn't lost due to a user forgetting to save the file or if data had not been flushed from cache.

The UPS eliminates sags, surges, spikes, noise, and other electrical interference that can damage equipment and data or interrupt operations.

The UPS provides a "clean" source of power, eliminating noise that can cause interruptions in operations or data loss.

There are basically three types of UPSs: Standby, Line-interactive, and On-line

Standby : (sometimes called "off-line") With this type of power supply, power comes directly from the A/C outlet until the voltage sags or the power fails. After the power sags or fails, a battery powered inverter almost immediately turns on to continue to supply you with power. Batteries are charged, as necessary, when direct A/C power is available. Even while power is coming directly from the A/C outlet, the UPS provides protection from voltage spikes and surges. Standby units are the low cost solution in the UPS family.

Line-interactive : Just like the standby units, line-interactive UPSs provide protection from spikes and surges, as well as supplying auxiliary power if a voltage sag or a blackout occurs. Unlike the standby units, line-interactive UPSs provide automatic voltage boost when the power dips, without accessing the batteries. This feature provides continuous lined conditioning, promotes longer battery life, and eliminates electronic "noise" that can cause minor application errors and loss of data.

On-line : On-line UPSs provide the highest quality of power protection by using a double-conversion technique. The UPS takes the incoming A/C power and recreates it by converting the voltage to D/C, then conditioning the power to eliminate noise, sags, or surges, and, finally, converting it back to A/C before it exists the UPS. Since the power runs continuously through the inverter, there is no transfer or switching time to battery mode in the event of a blackout.

There are UPS solutions available to support almost any application anywhere from five minutes to two days, the solution just depends on your application. Typically, you should plan on enough run time to allow you to save any open files and safely shutdown the system.

Desktop computers, network file servers, telephone systems and other critical business equipment play a vital role in the day to day operations of most businesses and the reliable functioning of those systems depend on a clean uninterrupted supply of power.

In many cases, an uninterruptible power supply can be justified with simple arithmetic. Several hours of professional work can be lost due to a momentary brownout. This can crash a computer before the work can be saved to disk. Consequently, an organization can suffer expensive setbacks in terms of time and disruption. But, with an uninterruptible power supply in place, a brownout can pass unnoticed. Spending as little as a hundred dollars on power protection can buy complete protection and peace of mind.

Power problems in most cases cannot be prevented or corrected due to the tremendous demand placed on the public utilities in our fast growing technological society. With utility de-regulation, power quality is expected to deteriorate even further. Power protection is the only answer.

The on-line UPS provides the highest quality of power protection by incorporating a double-conversion technique, whereby power coming in to the UPS is converted from AC to DC. Power is then conditioned and converted back to AC at the output of the UPS. There is no transfer or switching time since power actually runs through the battery system. By isolating the input from the output, on-line UPSs provide true sinewave power to attached equipment that is clean and free of any power anomalies.

G-Power Solutions manufacture the Continuous Power series of on-line UPSs. Within this product line are units that include the following VA ratings : 500VA - 1KVA - 2KVA (220V only) - 3KVA - 5KVA – 7.5KVA - 10KVA - 15KVA -.....120KVA
