To use the tool, you need to do the following

Step 1. Provide Energy Cost, CO2 Emission, and UPS Fleet information

Section 1 Single Phase UPS Efficiency Comparison Calculator: Energy Cost, CO2 Emission, and UPS Fleet information

*Note: You can provide information about Location, Cost, and CO2 Emission factor, and specify multiple UPS units. Choosing a location will load preset data for Electricity cost and  CO2 emission, but this data can be changed; preset data will not be updated

Step 2. Provide UPS information for UPS A

Section 2 Single Phase UPS Efficiency Comparison Calculator: UPS A Information

Section 2-a  Single Phase UPS Efficiency Comparison Calculator: UPS A Empty Information

Section 2-b Single Phase UPS Efficiency Comparison Calculator: UPS A Information Populated

Step 3.  Provide UPS information for UPS B (Optional)

Section 3 Single Phase UPS Efficiency Comparison Calculator: UPS B Information

Section 3-a Single Phase UPS Efficiency Comparison Calculator: UPS B Information Set to Analyze Only UPS A

Section 3-B Single Phase UPS Efficiency Comparison Calculator: UPS B Information Populated with UPS Graph Comparison

*If the graph is not showing UPS information, choose option Analyze Only UPS A on UPS B Section to proceed without entering Data for the 2nd UPS, or Populate UPS B data to display the Graph.

Step 4. Changing UPS Load Information

Section 4 Single Phase UPS Efficiency Comparison Calculator  Load Slider and Consumption Data

The slider can be used to change the load information, computer consumption, or losses depending on efficiency (Green arrow).

The losses or UPS power consumption are displayed as UPS Losses on the table below the graph (Blue arrow).

Step 5. Graph Options

Section 5 Single Phase UPS Efficiency Comparison Calculator  Graph Options

Graph data can be changed to reflect comparisons between Losses, Cost, Carbon Footprint, and Energy consumption.

*Note Energy, Cost, and Carbon Footprint are approximated at an annual rate
