UPS configuration
dvantages - Output Isolation Transformer
No DC component in output (galvanic isolation by
transformer)
Transformer less UPS DC components are controlled
electronically
Lower DC voltage less number of batteries per string
(30-32 blocks)
Less cost for same type of batteries and back up time
Better
short circuit capability in battery mode (bypass not available)
Transformer less UPS More battery blocks, connections
Transformer based UPS 2.7 X Nominal current Ph-Ph
etc
- 4 X Nominal current Ph-N / G
Transformer less UPS 2.2 X Nominal current
No neutral current back to the mains in case of unbalanced load in
Double conversion mode
Better management of unbalanced load.
A Zig-Zag transformer will share an unbalanced load on the three inverter
bridges
Transformer less UPS inverter legs may see unbalanced load ( different
leg operates at different load % - Components stress level are different)
improves battery lifetime through less ripple
