    1. Introduction The Rittal PMC UPS 6kVA Series is an uninterruptible power supply incorporating double-converter technology. It provides perfect protection specifically for Novell, Windows NT and UNIX servers. The double-converter principle eliminates all mains power disturbances. A rectifier converts the alternating current from the socket outlet to direct current.
