User Manual
FAQ
What is the power capacity of this UPS?
The APC Smart-UPS SMT750I has a 750 VA (volt-ampere) and 500 W (watt) load capacity. This rating determines how much equipment it can support during a power outage, making it suitable for desktop computers, networking gear, or small servers drawing up to 500 watts.
How long does the battery last during a power outage?
At full load (500 W), the battery provides up to 5 minutes of runtime, allowing time for graceful shutdowns. At half load (250 W), runtime extends to approximately 16 minutes. These times are sufficient to bridge short outages or initiate automated shutdown procedures.
What type of power output does this UPS provide?
It delivers a pure sine wave output, which is essential for compatibility with modern active PFC (Power Factor Correction) power supplies found in servers, workstations, and networking equipment. This ensures clean, stable power that prevents damage or instability in sensitive electronics.
How many devices can I connect to this UPS?
The UPS has eight outlets in total: six are battery and surge protected, and two are surge-only. All outlets use IEC 320-C13 connectors, allowing you to connect multiple devices such as computers, monitors, routers, or switches while ensuring they receive backup power and surge protection.
What is the recharge time for the battery?
After a complete discharge, the typical battery recharge time is 3 hours. This relatively fast recharge minimizes downtime between power events, ensuring the UPS is ready to provide protection again quickly. The maintenance-free, sealed lead-acid battery is designed for reliable performance over its lifespan.
Is this UPS suitable for rack mounting?
No, this model has a tower form factor and is designed for standalone placement on a desk, floor, or shelf. Its dimensions (6.20" H x 5.43" W x 14.10" D) and weight (29.06 lb) make it portable for various office or retail environments, but it does not include rack-mount ears or brackets.
