1.1 The Alpha CFR

Congratulations on your purchase of one of the most advanced and
intelligent Controlled Ferro Resonant-Uninterruptible Power Supply (CFR-
UPS) in the world! The Alpha CFR is designed to keep your equipment
operating, regardless of the condition of your utility power. This means that
your vital equipment will no longer be affected by spikes, surges, sags, noise,
brownouts, blackouts or other forms of electrical disturbances. Operation is as
simple as plugging your equipment into the back of the UPS and switching on
the power.
The CFR provides you with a wide range of power management options
using your choice of interface devices. The Standard Interface Device
displays vital UPS operating parameters, including Alarms, and allows you to
manually self-test the UPS. The Intelligent Interface Device provides you with
precise Voltage, Current and Frequency information, plus maintains an on-
going record of all Alarm and Line Failure Events. As an active center of
communication, your CFR can also be interfaced directly to your computer
system to inform you, and your users, of changes in status as they occur.
With distribution networks and service centers located throughout the
world, Alpha Technologies is here to back you up. From your date of
purchase, Alpha provides complete technical support and prompt, reliable
service to ensure that your CFR-UPS provides you with a lifetime of reliable
operation.
