Security and CCTV are for everyone's safety and are required by nearly all businesses to protect assets from possible theft. A little like UPS maintenance, CCTV uses the principle of prevention rather than the cure. Having said that, the CCTV and security operation is often only successful in the event of a break-in if the mains power supply is available. Often, just a blip in power can cause DVRs to reset, potentially causing settings to be lost and failure to record.

Without a generator on site, the recommended backup time for UPS products supporting CCTV loads is 4 hours. Even with a generator, the recommendation is 30 minutes. This can mean a high quantity of batteries or larger batteries are implemented into a UPS solution supporting this type of application. Furthermore, communication devices are recommended to ensure when failures occur, security teams can be alerted and problems can be resolved.
When sizing a UPS solution for CCTV and security applications, care must be given to any upscaling requirements and future development plans. Generally, UPS solutions are oversized by around 20% of the total load for efficiency purposes and for some room to increase the load. Modular applications, where power modules can be added later to increase the UPS output capacity are well suited for larger applications, giving the flexibility for growth without the need of distributing power protection.
Free site surveys (terms apply) and multi-unit discounts for initial hardware purchases and for ongoing maintenance support are available for all CCTV applications.
