1.1 The Alpha CFR
Congratulations on your purchase of one of the most advanced and
intelligent Controlled Ferroresonant-Uninterruptible Power Supply (CFR-UPS) in the
world! The Alpha CFR is designed to keep your equipment operating, regardless of
the condition of your utility power. This means that your vital equipment will no
longer be affected by spikes, surges, sags, noise, brownouts, blackouts or other
forms of electrical disturbances. Operation is as simple as plugging your equipment
into the back of the UPS and switching on the power.
The CFR provides you with a wide range of power management options
using your choice of interface devices. The Standard Interface Device displays
vital UPS operating parameters, including Alarms, and allows you to manually
self-test the UPS. The Intelligent Interface Device (IID) provides you with precise
Voltage, Current and Frequency information, plus maintains an on-going record of
all Alarm and Line Failure Events. As an active center of communication, your
CFR can also be interfaced directly to your computer system to inform you, and
your users, of changes in status as they occur.
With distribution networks and service centers located throughout the world,
Alpha Technologies is here to back you up. From your date of purchase, Alpha
provides complete technical support and prompt, reliable service to ensure that
your CFR-UPS provides you with a lifetime of reliable operation.
