Centiel AG is a Swiss manufacturer of uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems and related power protection equipment for critical installations. Founded in 1968 and headquartered in Lugano, the company produces three-phase modular and standalone UPS units, single-phase systems (including the cumuluspower X1 and essentialpower X1 product lines), and energy storage products. It also markets UPS network management software for monitoring and optimizing system performance.

Its service portfolio covers preventive maintenance, emergency support, site surveys, equipment rental and relocation, battery monitoring and replacement, capacitor and fan replacement, commissioning, factory acceptance testing, and customer training.
