Uninterruptible power supply

Uninterruptible power supply
Topic LCI-SPG-0037, Last Updated 11/08/2024

To prevent local power instability from impacting system reliability and performance, Waters recommends using an uninterruptible power supply (UPS). In support of this recommendation, Waters supplies UPS systems configured and evaluated specifically for use with Waters MS systems. These UPS units can step up single-phase line voltage to 230 V ac, providing power conditioning and protection for the MS and LC system components.

Note: These UPS units are sized to protect the LC, MS, and data system hardware. To avoid damaging the UPS, do not connect any additional components (for example, nitrogen generators, water chillers, or gas chromatographs) to the output of the UPS. Your local Waters service engineer can provide further details on UPS units.

For North America, the UPS system requires one L6-30, 30-amp wall socket. In other areas, the UPS system typically connects to laboratory main power using the standard power cord and wall socket required for your instrument system.
