1.2 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The MCP SERIES UPS is an advanced True On-Line sinewave Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) with automatic bypass. It
provides reliable, regulated, transient-free AC power to your sensitive equipment, ranging from computers and telecommuni-
cation systems to computerized instruments. Because the UPS is in the on-line topology type of design, conditioned power is
provided continuously to its connected devices. Unlike standby UPS’s, its on-line structure always regulates and filters output
power when commercial power is present. During line power failure, the unit employs its internal maintenance-free battery to
supply back-up power without any transfer time. In the event of an overload or inverter failure, the UPS will transfer to bypass
mode as an alternate source. The UPS can transfer back to the inverter mode automatically after the overload condition has
been cleared. All transfers noted above occur with zero transfer time that can ensure your equipment’s continuous operation.
