ACE Series – Owner’s Manual – 03/17/09
2 - Introduction
2.1
Introduction
The ACE Series is a line interactive uninterruptible power supply (UPS) which generates a true sine wave output, that protects your
equipment from power anomalies, including complete power failures.
The ACE Series UPS is based on microprocessor control. The line-interactive UPS provides pure, reliable AC power to the critical
loads - protecting them from utility power blackout, swells, sags, surges and interference. Critical loads include sensitive
medical instruments, computers, telecommunication systems, and industrial equipment. Under normal power conditions, the
line-interactive design enables the system to adjust and filter power fluctuations continuously and automatically. In the event
of power anomaly, it can provide immediate back-up power from the batteries without any interruption. Complete transfer will
be achieved within six (6) milliseconds, with no interruption.
In addition, when the utility power is connected, the battery charger would work automatically even when UPS power switch is
OFF. Furthermore, in order to save battery energy, UPS can automatically turn the charger OFF under backup mode if none of the
connected loads are operating.
The visual and audible indications of the UPS Advanced Battery Management algorithms present the battery’s status including
capacity degree and battery condition. The self-test function can detect a weak battery before it is put into service. The UPS
normally performs a self-test at power up and manual self-test condition. Self-test function can be initiated manually with the
ON/TEST switch at any time.
2.2 Intended use
x
Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) are designed to protect sensitive electronic equipment such as sensitive medical
instruments, computers, telecommunication systems, and industrial equipment, from all forms of power interference,
including complete power failure.
CAUTION
DO NOT plug household appliances such as electric heaters, toasters or vacuum cleaners into the
UPS. The UPS output is intended for use with electronic loads such as computers and
