1. Visually inspect obstacles in UPS uninterruptible power supply and battery (or other energy storage) equipment, and cool the surrounding area appropriately.
2. Ensure that there are no operational abnormalities or warnings on the UPS uninterruptible power supply panel, such as overload or battery near over discharge.
3. Check for signs of battery corrosion or other defects.
4. Refer to the manufacturer’s equipment guidelines and recommendations. You should perform maintenance (or hire professionals to do so) according to the manufacturer’s recommendations, often or at least in certain situations, and of course, the more frequently you check, the better.
5. Realizing that UPS uninterruptible power supply components will malfunction. This seems obvious: any probability of failure will eventually lead to failure. The key UPS components, such as batteries and capacitors, will wear out under normal use, so even if your utility provides perfect power, your UPS room is completely clean, and everything runs ideally at a suitable stable temperature, the components will still fail. Your UPS system still needs maintenance.
6. Know who to call when you need service or periodic maintenance. During daily or weekly inspections, problems may arise and may not be able to wait until the next scheduled maintenance. In this situation, knowing who to call can greatly reduce stress. That is to say, you must identify a solid service provider who can provide services when you need them. If you keep good maintenance records at the same location where the UPS uninterruptible power supply is installed, you will be able to provide useful information when the supplier arrives, which may save a lot of service time and service fees.
7. Assign tasks. Shouldn’t you have checked last week? “” No, I think you should go. “To avoid this mess, make sure the appropriate personnel know their responsibilities when it comes to UPS maintenance. Who checks the equipment every week? Who convenes service providers and annual maintenance? Specific tasks may vary, but when it comes to your UPS system, make sure you know who is responsible for what.
