Banking in India has evolved considerably in the past two decades. First with computerization and then with online baking, Indian banks now depend more than ever on data, and on uninterrupted power supply. In case there is a power outage, a bank could lose critical data being exchanged on its servers as customers engage in online transactions. Banks in India many times have branches in remote villages that face frequent and long power outages.

How industrial UPS systems can help

Various UPS systems types and sizes can be found across a bank. From providing backup to individual desktop computers to powering ATMS in remote locations, UPS systems play a vital role in keeping the bank up and running in case of power outage. A municipal branch of a bank might need an industrial UPS system with capacity between 20-120 KVA. A local branch may need a UPS system of around 10 KVA to keep its servers up and running during a power outage while a UPS of just over 6 KVA powers the computers at its counters.

Industrial UPS systems for ATMs

Power is critical for ATMs. They can be located in remote places where power supply isn’t regular. Power outages in ATM can lead to dissatisfaction and frustration for customer. Power issues can result in screen freezing and ATM being stuck mid operation. UPS systems also need to be capable of handling ATMs and auxiliary equipment. An ATM alkong with its auxiliary equipment uses around 1~3 kW of power. Durability and regular servicing is key for industrial UPS systems powering ATMs.

Choosing the right UPS system for your bank

An ideal industrial UPS system should be able to keep all of the bank’s load running till the power comes back on or the generator is switched on. At the minimum, it should allow enough time for employees to shut down all systems safely and avoid losing critical data. Here are some of the points to consider when choosing the right UPS system.
