MAJOR COMPONENTS
TRANSIENT VOLTAGE SURGE SUPPRESSION (TVSS) AND EMI/RFI
FILTERS
These UPS components provide surge protection and filter both electro-
magnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI). They
minimize any surges or interference present in the utility line and keep the
sensitive equipment protected.
RECTIFIER/POWER FACTOR CORRECTION (PFC) CIRCUIT
In normal operation, the rectifier/power factor correction (PFC) circuit con-
verts utility AC power to regulated DC power for use by the inverter while
ensuring that the waveshape of the input current used by the UPS is near
ideal. Extracting this sinewave input current achieves two objectives:
The utility power is used as efficiently as possible by the UPS.
The amount of distortion reflected on the utility is reduced.
This results in cleaner power being available to other devices in the build-
ing not being protected by the UPStation GXT 2U.
INVERTER
In normal operation, the inverter utilizes the DC output of the power factor
correction circuit and inverts it into precise, regulated sinewave AC power.
Upon a utility power failure, the inverter receives its required energy from
the battery through the DC to DC converter. In both modes of operation,
the UPS inverter is on-line and continuously generating clean, precise,
regulated AC output power.
