Why is the backup time less than specified on my Chloride UPS?
- J
  Jonathan MurrayAug 4, 2025
  If the backup time of your Chloride UPS is less than specified, there might be several reasons: * The fuse switch of the battery extension(s) may be in the 'OFF' position. Ensure it is switched to 'ON'. * The number of externally connected battery extensions might be set incorrectly. Make sure the settings are correct. * The batteries may not be fully charged. Charge the batteries and test the backup time. If the issue persists after checking these points, it may indicate defective batteries or a defective charging device.
