Why do you need a pure sine wave and a UPS?"},"content":{"rendered":"

When the temperature outside drops below zero and the power supply system fails, the key task is to protect the heating circuit from freezing. A typical mistake at the start is to try to power the automation with the first available automotive converter. In such cases, the boiler board often locks up, gives a flame ionization error, and the circulation pump starts to hum loudly.<\/p>\n

Let's analyze the technical reasons for this problem and determine which equipment from the company Electro Shop<\/a><\/b> will ensure stable operation of the autonomous heating system in emergency mode.<\/p>\n

1. The value of a pure sine wave for electric motors<\/h2>\n

If the power supplies of routers or smartphones are pulsed and operate on almost any form of voltage, then the asynchronous motors of gas boiler circulation pumps are critical to the quality of the input signal.<\/p>\n

Most budget cars hybrid inverters<\/a> generate a modified sine wave, where the voltage changes stepwise. This is critical for pump windings: excessive eddy currents occur, the motor overheats, produces extraneous hum and quickly fails. For uninterrupted operation of heating equipment, it is necessary buy UPS for boiler with pure sine wave<\/b><\/a>. Such equipment provides a smooth voltage graph, similar to a stationary network, which guarantees quiet operation and preservation of the equipment's resource.<\/p>\n

When powered from a high-quality network, the current has the form of an ideal smooth wave - it is a pure sine wave, in which the electromagnetic field in the motor rotates evenly. Modified sine supplies voltage in sharp pulses (rectangles). The pump rotor receives constant hydrodynamic shocks, which causes vibration, metallic hum and overheating of the windings.<\/p>\n

2. Phase dependence of automation and ignition error<\/h2>\n

Modern heating boilers are phase-dependent. For the correct fixation of the flame by the ionization sensor, a clear connection with the neutral ("zero") is required. When switching to power from a conventional autonomous inverter, this connection is broken - an isolated neutral appears. As a result, the boiler starts the burner for 2\u20133 seconds, does not fix the ionization current and is blocked by an emergency error.<\/p>\n

Online store specialists Electro Shop<\/b> help solve this problem by selecting a UPS architecture with a through-zero or installing special grounding adapters, which ensures correct operation of the control board.<\/p>\n

3. Reliable solutions for backup heating power<\/h2>\n

Available in the assortment engineering solutions<\/a>, tested on real heating systems:<\/p>\n

Option #1: Integrated UPS for boilers (Line-Interactive or On-Line)<\/a><\/h3>\n

These are multifunctional units that combine an intelligent charger, voltage stabilizer and pure sine wave inverter<\/a>.<\/p>\n
