UPS Load and Runtime Calculator | Eaton
Find the perfect UPS system in two easy steps! Calculate the total power consumption of connected devices then choose a runtime so get your recommendations.
Calculate the appropriate uninterruptible power supply (UPS) size by entering your equipment power requirements and backup needs below. This calculator helps determine the correct UPS capacity in VA (Volt-Amps) and required battery runtime based on your connected load and desired backup duration.
For example, a 100 kVA UPS system with a power factor of 0.8 can only support 80 kW of real power. The UPS load is the combined amount of power that attached electrical devices will consume. To calculate the load, you add the total watts of each piece of equipment that will be connected to the UPS.
Step 5: Verify the Final Answer The final battery capacity required for this setup is 267 AH, ensuring the UPS can provide sufficient backup power for 2 hours while accounting for energy losses and battery aging. Maintain a stable ambient temperature around 25°C.
An Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) is a device that provides emergency power to connected equipment when the main power source fails. It offers immediate protection from power interruptions by supplying power from a separate source, typically batteries. 1. Standby UPS 2. Line-Interactive UPS 3. Online/Double-Conversion UPS
