UPS system solutions for offshore platforms

摘要

AN UNINTERRUPTIBLE POWER supply (UPS) is mandatory on oil rigs First and foremost this is because, for safety reasons, the signal lighting must be operational at all times. Complete blackouts or malfunctions in the mains power supply, such as frequency fluctuations or overvoltages caused by lightning strikes, must be safely bridged on oil rigs. Above all, functioning signal lights are not only essential for smooth operation on the rig, but also for the safety of all nearby ships and aeroplanes. Therefore, the position lights must not fail under any circumstances.
