UPS

WHAT ARE THE UPS?

An uninterruptible power supply or uninterruptible power source is an electrical apparatus that provides emergency power to a load when the input power source or mains power fails.

MANUFACTURING PROCESS

The incoming raw material and components are tested for required quality and specifications. The components are formed, shaped and soldered on pre-designed printed circuit boards. The assembled printed circuit boards are tested for desired performance. The PCB’s transformer and other electromechanical components are mounted inside the enclosure, electrical wiring is made. Switches, knobs etc. are fixed to the enclosure. The UPS system is tested for required specifications by using batteries.

Pollution Control:

The Govt. accords utmost importance to controlling environmental pollution. Small-scale entrepreneurs should have an environmentally friendly attitude and adopt pollution control measures by process modification and technology substitution.

India has acceded to the Montreal Protocol in Sept. 1992, the production and use of Ozone Depleting Substances (ODS) like Chloro Fluoro Carbon (CFC), Carbon Tetrachloride, Halons and Methyl Chloroform etc. need to be phased out immediately with alternative chemicals/ solvents. A notification for detailed Rules to regulate ODS phase-out under the Environment Protection Act, 1986 have UNINTERRUPTED POWER SUPPLY (UPS) 75 been put in place with effect from 19th July 2000.

The following steps are suggested which may help to control pollution in the electronics industry wherever applicable:

1. In the electronic industry fumes and gases are released during hand soldering/wave soldering/Dip soldering, which is harmful to people as well as the environment and the end products. Alternate technologies may be used to phase out the existing polluting technologies. Numerous new fluxes have been developed containing 2-10% solids as opposed to the traditional 15-35% solids.

2. The electronic industry uses CFC, Carbon Tetrachloride and Methyl Chloroform for cleaning printed circuit boards after assembly to remove flux residues left after soldering, and various kinds of foams for packaging.

Many alternative solvents could replace CFC-113 and Methyl Chloroform in electronics cleaning. Other Chlorinated solvents such as Trichloroethylene, Perchloroethylene and Methylene Chloride have been used as effective cleaners in the electronics industry for many years. Other organic solvents such as Ketones and Alcohols are effective in removing both solder fluxes and many polar contaminants.

Energy Conservation:

With the growing energy needs and shortage coupled with rising energy cost, a greater thrust in energy efficiency in the industrial sector has been given by the Govt. of India since the 1980s.

The Energy Conservation Act, 2001 has been enacted on 18th August 2001, which provides for efficient use of energy, its conservation and capacity building of Bureau of Energy Efficiency created under the Act.

The following steps may help for conservation of electrical energy:

1. Adoption of energy-conserving technologies, production aids and testing facilities.

2. Efficient management of process/ manufacturing machinery and systems, QC, and testing equipment for yielding maximum Energy Conservation.

3. Optimum use of electrical energy for heating during the soldering process can be obtained by using efficient temperature-controlled soldering and desoldering stations.

4. Periodical maintenance of motors, compressors etc.

5. Use of power factor correction capacitors. Proper selection and layout of the lighting system; timely switching on-off of the lights; use of compact fluorescent lamps wherever possible etc.
