Below is to clarify and to make a fair comparison between IGBT Rectifier Industrial UPS Vs Thyristor Rectifier Industrial UPS and IGBT Rectifier IT/Commercial
UPS based on the advanced technology and modern development today. Many of such arguments were done using a IGBT Rectifier UPS in IT/Commercial used
and the traditional Thyristor Rectifier UPS for comparison and was carried out quite some times ago (late '90).
Description IGBT Rectifier Industrial UPS Thyristor Rectifier Industrial UPS IGBT Rectifier IT/Commercial UPS
Three phase (4W or 3W) Yes 400/230, can 3W or 4W Yes 400/230, can 3W or 4W Yes 400/230, only 4W with N
Isolation Transformer (built-in) Yes Yes transformerless
Input Power Factor 0.97 - 0.99 0.8 >0.99
< 30% for 6-pulse bridge connection
and < 15% with H.filters 6-pulse bridge.
< 3% (because without input isolation
Total Harmonic Distortion(THDi) < 5%
tranformer)
< 15% for 12-pulse bridge connection,
and < 10% with H.filters 12-pulse bridge.

Functional Principle
62040-3 Class VFI 111 SS. 62040-3 Class VFI 111 SS. charger and booster with ECO mode
Rectifier Output DC Ripple Voltage approx. 2 % with LC filter approx. 5% with LC filter small with high DC
size as per electrical practice 1.2 times of need to size 2.5 times (6-pulse) & 2 times
Generator size for UPS approx. 1.2 times bigger
US rating (THDi < 5%) bigger for 12-pulse
Input Harmonic Filter for THDi <5% No Yes, even for 12-pulse No
Cooling / ventilation for room smaller cooling bigger cooling required smaller cooling
