Do you need a battery for an ups?

As an example, your UPS system’s battery – lithium-ion or VRLA – will need servicing. They also need to be kept away from potential hazards like particularly high or low temperatures or water. What size should a UPS room be? The most important factor in sizing a room for an Uninterruptible Power Supply is space around the equipment.

Can UPS batteries be installed outside?

UPS batteries should never be installed outdoors where they can be exposed to the damaging effects of sunlight. IEEE 1635/ASHRAE 21 is a good engineering reference for designing properly ventilated battery rooms and cabinets. Lead-acid batteries contain substances that are not good for the environment in which we live.
