Continuing our theme of explaining a term associated with critical power to you on a weekly basis, today we’re going to talk about some of the fundamental parts of a generator. This post is about the generator canopy.

Over the past 10 years UPS (uninterruptible power supply) technology has advanced considerably; legacy units older than seven years are typically difficult to support as parts need regular replacement and excess process heat means that air conditioning units have to work harder, incurring increased costs. Newer UPS technology makes UPS units up to 58% more energy efficient and show savings of up to £3,000 a year in energy costs alongside reducing your climate change levy (CCL) payment and air-conditioning bill.

In the final post in our series on every efficiency, we look at the environmental difference that upgrading your UPS can make and give some guidance on when it’s best to upgrade your equipment.

This week we’re looking at ways in which energy efficient UPS save energy and can help save you money.

Continuing our theme of explaining a term associated with critical power to you on a weekly basis, today we’re going to talk about some of the fundamental parts of a generator. This post is about the brains behind the whole thing. Allow me to introduce you to a generator controller.

Over the next three weeks we’ll be, discussing how energy efficient UPS can increase your energy efficiency, reduce your carbon footprint and help your firm make a contribution toward a better planet.

Over the past 26 weeks, Powertecnique have brought you our A-Z of Critical Power. Sadly this has now come to an end and that’s happened before we could explain to you all the terms we wanted to! Following on from the A-Z then is our new ‘Explaining…’ series. Today we’re going to explain what impact load is.

In the final part of our series on remote monitoring, Darren Pearce, Managing Director at Powertecnique explains how you can best get information out of PowerVue to maximise your organisations uptime.

Welcome to a regular feature on the Powertecnique blog. Every Monday we talk you through an A-Z of the terms you hear associated with critical power supplies. In this latest post we’ve reached the letter Z. Z is for Zero Crossing.
