Online UPS for banks and ATM networks
The engineering is simple. The problem is doing it identically across sixty sites and knowing which battery bank fails next month.
What actually goes wrong
A single branch UPS is a straightforward specification. A network of them is a fleet management problem: sites installed by different vendors over ten years, no consistent record of battery ages, and failures discovered by a customer complaint rather than by a report.
Working in banking & atm networks
What to get right
The decisions on this list are the ones that are expensive to change after the equipment is on site.
Standardised specification
One configuration across the fleet means one spares holding and predictable replacement planning.
Unattended sites
ATM kiosks have nobody on site. Remote alarm reporting is what converts a silent failure into a scheduled visit.
Battery age tracking
Fleet-wide age and capacity records turn replacement into a budgeted annual programme instead of a series of emergencies.
Air-conditioned kiosks
The AC is often on the same supply. Decide deliberately whether it is on the UPS, because it roughly doubles the rating if it is.
Rollout logistics
Multi-site installations need a schedule, a single point of contact and consistent handover documents per site.
Rental cover
A small rental pool covers sites during repair so a branch is never running unprotected.
What we supply into this sector
Online UPS
True double-conversion topology from 3 kVA to 200 kVA across three series, with single-phase or three-phase output. Zero transfer time, pure sine output held to ±1%, and up to 96% efficiency. Built and load-tested in Pune.
Offline UPS
3 kVA to 60 kVA across three series. The load runs on conditioned mains and transfers to the inverter in under 8 ms — the right answer where the supply is reasonable and the load tolerates a brief break.
Servo Voltage Stabilizer
5 kVA to 500 kVA, air or oil cooled, correcting to ±1% output. The right first fix when the MIDC feeder swings all day and the equipment keeps tripping on undervoltage.
Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS)
The supply you are on fails, and the load moves to the one that has not — with nobody at the panel. 10 A to 150 A, single phase and three phase.

Questions we get asked
Anything not covered here, call us — most of it is faster to answer on the phone.
01What UPS capacity does a bank branch need?
A typical branch — teller workstations, a server or NVR, network gear, printers — lands between 5 and 10 kVA. The number moves a great deal depending on whether the air conditioning is on the UPS, so decide that first; it often doubles the rating.
02Can you handle AMC across multiple branches?
Yes. Multi-site contracts are priced per site with a common response window, a single coordinator and a consolidated fleet report showing battery ages and capacity trend across every location — which is usually the part that makes replacement budgeting possible.
03What backup does an ATM actually need?
Enough to complete or safely abandon a transaction and shut down cleanly, plus the communications link — an ATM that keeps its screen alive but loses its network is not serving anyone. Sites vary widely: a branch lobby with a generator needs a different runtime from an unattended kiosk with none. The site survey question is what happens to the link, not just to the machine.
04Why do ATMs and branch equipment fail in ways that look random?
Very often the supply, and very often at unattended sites. Poor earthing, voltage swings and dips produce faults that are intermittent by nature and clear before anyone attends, so they get logged as one-off equipment faults and the pattern is never seen. A site with repeat callouts across different components is worth logging for supply quality before more hardware is replaced.
05How often should ATM site batteries be replaced?
By test, not by calendar — but do test, because unattended sites are where batteries quietly die. A bank sitting on float looks healthy on a voltmeter and can still have almost no capacity left; only a discharge test at rated load shows the delivered figure. Sites in hot locations without cooling age faster than the datasheet suggests, and those are exactly the ones that fail unnoticed.
06Can one UPS cover a branch, or should each machine have its own?
Both arrangements are used and the trade is maintenance against resilience. A single branch unit is easier to service, easier to monitor and cheaper per kVA, but it is one thing to lose. Per-machine units are more to maintain but degrade one at a time. Branches with a generator commonly centralise; unattended sites are distributed by definition.
