Retrofitting of UPS: 10 Benefits

Publisert 29.08.2023

Are you considering upgrading your UPS system but unsure about the benefits? This list provides you with the answers!

If you have a UPS system that doesn't quite meet today's requirements, but find it too drastic to replace the entire setup, you should take a closer look at what's called UPS retrofitting.

In simple terms, retrofitting is an upgrade of an existing UPS system. Technology evolves rapidly, which can cause UPS systems to not meet the demands for uninterrupted power supply. Retrofitting can then be a cost-effective solution instead of investing in an entirely new UPS system.

Here, you can learn more about what retrofitting is and how it works.

The Key Benefits of UPS Retrofitting

Retrofitting can offer a range of advantages. You can, among other things, achieve:

  • Improved efficiency

  • Increased capacity

  • Better performance

  • Reduced operating costs

  • Advanced monitoring and control capabilities

  • Extended lifespan

  • Reduced downtime

  • An environmentally friendly solution

  • Adaptation to changing needs

  • A tailored solution

Let's take a closer look at each of these points:

Improved Efficiency

Retrofitting UPS systems provides the opportunity to install newer technology and energy-efficient components, which not only enhances the system's efficiency but also contributes to reducing power consumption.

Increased Capacity

By upgrading the UPS system, it becomes better equipped to handle increased power demands or loads, ensuring a more reliable power supply, even during periods of high demand.

Reduced Operating Costs

Newer UPS models are designed with a focus on energy efficiency. This can lead to significant cost savings in the long term, including lower electricity bills and reduced maintenance. Retrofitting your existing UPS system can achieve these same cost reductions.

Advanced Monitoring and Control

Through retrofitting, you gain the ability to implement advanced monitoring and control features in your existing UPS system. This includes real-time performance monitoring, battery status, and load conditions. This helps you be better prepared and make informed decisions to manage and optimize your power systems.
