Although buyers have a large number of domestic and international UPS brands to choose from, the options are so many that buyers often get confused and misled into buying a UPS based on price alone. Instead, customers should base their choice on reliability, scalability of the product and credibility of the brand

Most innovations that are happening are focused on increasing efficiency, in an attempt to save power and the environment. Today, the trend is moving towards compact systems and rack based solutions to minimise the space required, and preference is being given to centralised UPS rather than distributed configurations

In the age of innovation, the battery industry has not been left behind. Keeping up with the demands of the customers, SMF batteries are now designed to provide outstanding performance to withstand overcharge, over discharge, and to resist vibration and shock. Compact in size, these batteries save installation space while providing full and reliable power

Servo stabiliser is an unorganised sector. Buyers should, therefore, be very careful while making a purchase decision. The credibility of the company should be looked into, and it is also essential to have some knowledge about the product

Sealed Maintenance Free Valve Regulated Lead Acid (SMF VRLA) battery is the most popular and environment friendly technology used in a host of applications. The battery market in India is worth Rs 100 billion, with SMF VRLA batteries contributing about 20-22 per cent of this turnover. In an effort to appreciate the Indian SMF battery manufacturers and importers, Electronics Bazaar carried an opinion survey based on the companies’ state of the art manufacturing capabilities, market share, service support and reach. We contacted experts in power electronics associations, traders and customers, who shared with us their preferences of leading SMF VRLA battery companies. While this list is by no means comprehensive, it provides a glimpse into India’s leading SMF battery companies. We are not ranking them, but only listing them in alphabetical order.

Investments to be made while setting up a battery manufacturing plant depends on the capacity of the plant in terms of how many lakhs of ampere-hour batteries are to be produced

A small change in a manufacturing parameter can lead to a substantial difference in battery performance. Battery manufacture, therefore, requires strict control of manufacturing parameters, besides focusing on the latest technological developments

In the age of innovation, the battery industry has not been left behind. Keeping up with the demands of the customers, SMF batteries are now designed to provide outstanding performance to withstand overcharge, over discharge, and to resist vibration and shock. Compact in size, these batteries save installation space while providing full and reliable power

Fierce competition in the market has compelled UPS companies to innovate and make their products more advanced, cost efficient, user friendly and customised. The main focus is on energy management and high quality of power supply

Considering buyers’ behaviour and market demand, companies are making their products more advance, cost efficient, user friendly and customised

These changes are based on market demand, which is tilted towards highly cyclic, quick recharge batteries, and those that sustain higher temperature to cater to ever changing customer needs

Both modified sine wave power inverters and true sine power inverters are used for office purposes. These are constantly modified to provide better efficiency and stability
