What is the difference between IPS and UPS?
Both of are power supply devices. But there are many difference between IPS & UPS. 1. IPS means Instant power supply, UPS means Uninterrupted Power system. 2. IPS backup system is so high, But UPS backup system is low 3. IPS use a large number of electronic equipment, But UPS use a small equipment 4. IPS provide large time backup, But UPS provide short time backup 5. For IPS must be use big size battery, But UPS is not. 6. IPS can be operate more than one electronic equipment like Computer, TV, Fan etc at a time, But UPS can be operate only one equipment.
What is a ups universal power supply?
UPS usually stands for Uninterruptible Power Supply, and refers to a device that stores electricity in a battery for temporary backup if the "wall" power should fluctuate or black out for a short period of time. Typically, computers or servers are connected to these UPS devices to prevent them from shutting off during electrical storms and other power fluctuations/outages. - KS
Can you equip UPS orInverter for Mail server to have 24 hr Backup?
Yes you can use a UPS provided it can supply enough power for the server and you have good battery backup. A inverter is an option but a little bit more complicated, you will need a good battery charger and you have to run the server on the inverter alone, so the inverter will work 24/24 because you can not use mains supply to the server, so it have to be a good quality inverter, preferably a sine wave inverter with a 100% duty cycle, good batteries and a good charger that will supply enough charge to maintain the current draw of the inverter and have reserve to store energy in the batteries for times when the mains is out and the charger can not supply the energy demand.

Why can't a 60hz apc ups work in 50hz country?
Ignoring all other issues; when power goes out the UPS starts providing battery backup power that has been CONVERTED to AC. The UPS will attempt to provide 60 HZ power, and all of the stuff plugged into it will have been designed for 50 HZ power. ALSO... 50 HZ countries often use 240 V mains inside the home, so the UPS that is designed for 60 HZ 120 V will probably melt down, but if it survives, it will attempt to provide 120 V when the power goes off, meaning that your equipment will probably fail. The results will be unpredictable and unstable. It isn't really recommended, and if i were you, I wouldn't try it. Only use the proper UPS, the one that is designed for the local current.
