Temperature fluctation causing power supply issues?

Hoping for people with experience with DC power supply/UPS knowledge. We have had issues with one of our DC where the air con is tripping/failing which causes our room temp to spike from 19 degrees to 25ish. Once we see the high temp plateau we are experiencing issues with some of the networking kit in that room that seems power related. From what we can see one of the two UPS power feeds we have in the room trips or or has issues exactly at the time the temperature peaks. We have just recently seen half the redundant power supplies in our kit there alert us to power loss. Unfortunately we don't have remote access to the UPS to check logs and we don't manage them so can't get access on to them to check. Am I right to suspect that temperature can affect UPS or power distribution? Do UPS have some sort of temperature monitoring and protection system if it detects temperature changes? Cheers.
