Ups Monitoring System

The UPS monitoring system allows users to monitor key UPS parameters like voltage, load current, and backup time directly from their computer. It uses a microcontroller to measure voltage with a potential transformer and current with a current transformer. Sensors convert the readings to digital values displayed on an LCD screen. The system also provides warnings when the battery is low and automatically shuts down the computer when the battery is depleted.

UPS MONITORING SYSTEM

Objective:

UPS monitoring system is a project to monitor the UPS parameters


like voltage, load current and backup time. This project is very much useful
for personal computer users.

Scope:

When they are using their computer at the time of power failures and
power fluctuations, the user must know the condition of the UPS. This could
be displayed in the system screen itself. When the battery gets discharged to
below a particular level, it has to give a warning message in LCD. When the
battery is in almost dry condition, our system is to shut down automatically
with the help of software. The total project can be done with the
microcontroller and embedded programming. So this particular project is
very essential for computer users.

Explanation:

The block consists of


1. Potential transformer
2. Current transformer
3. Precision rectifier
4. A/D converter
5. Microcontroller
6. LCD
7. Power detection circuit
8. Signal conditioning unit

In this project we are going to monitor the voltage, current and backup
time. All the four parameters are monitored with the following techniques.
Voltage to the motor is measured with the help of a potential transformer.
The potential transformer will convert the mains supply voltage to low
voltage AC. That AC voltage will be rectified with the help of a precision
rectifier. Then the rectified output will be given to the microcontroller
through an analog to digital converter.
Current consumed by the motor is measured with the help of a current
transformer. The current transformer will convert the load current in to lower
values that current output will be converted in to voltage with the help of the
shunt resistor. Then the corresponding AC voltage will be rectified with the
help of a precision rectifier. Then the rectified output will be given to the
microcontroller through an analog to digital converter.
Then the microcontroller will receive the input and that will be converted
into the digital format and that will be displayed in the LCD display. The
back up time is calculated by power detection circuit and it will be displayed
on LCD too. If the main power is off, the backup time will gradually reduce
according to load taken and vice versa.

Advantage:

 Less expensive
 Reduces manpower
 High reliability
