UPS applications: a mill perspective

Abstract

The work reported results from the experience of installing a number of uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems for various projects. Typical applications in a pulp and paper mill are described, and how to evaluate whether a UPS system should be used is determined. Factors are listed which will help determine whether a UPS system should be installed. Typical applications in pulp and paper mills are listed and discussed. Problems from some actual installations are described and alternative approaches are examined.<>
