Hi,
I cannot find an answer anywhere on google.
A lot of people recommend using a pure sinewave UPS for all active PFC power supplies for a variety of reasons. I have some very specific questions though that maybe some people can answer.
1) Suppose I am using a modified sinewave UPS...just as a situation. Is it providing a modified sinewave ALL the time or JUST when it is using the battery?
2) Can a modified sinewave UPS DAMAGE a PSU even if everything works fine at first? Reason I am asking is because PSU's rectify the AC right into DC as soon as it gets it before doing anything else, so why does the sinewave matter or is this more of an issue of whether it works or doesn't.
3) If a UPS is damaging a PFC PSU, does it only matter if its during battery operating or even during regular operation? Relates to question 1.
4) I am using a Cyber Power Systems CP1350AVR UPS with a Corsair AX650 PSU and I've used it for like 3+ years before with a Corsair TX850. Never had a single hitch or issue, the UPS worked exactly as it should during power outages and nothing happened. Is my PSU being silently degraded/damaged or is everything fine and I need not worry?
Thank you if anybody can offer any help with this.
