Product Features
Product Overview
The APC SUA500PDR-H is a 500VA line-interactive UPS specifically engineered for DIN rail panel mounting in demanding industrial environments. This tower-form-factor unit delivers 325 watts of reliable power protection with a high-temperature battery designed to maintain operation in conditions where standard UPS systems would fail. With zero transfer time and pure sine wave output, it provides clean, uninterrupted power to critical equipment, ensuring operational continuity in industrial control panels, transportation systems, and mission-critical applications.
Featuring a hard-wired 3-wire (1PH+N+G) connection, this UPS offers secure, vibration-resistant installation that is ideal for permanent integration into electrical enclosures. The 120V input/output configuration matches standard North American power systems, while the wide input voltage range of 82-144V AC ensures compatibility with fluctuating industrial power sources. Designed to operate at temperatures up to 122°F (50°C), this UPS maintains reliability in environments where ambient heat would compromise conventional battery backup systems.
Technical Overview
This line-interactive UPS delivers 500VA/325W of power capacity with a 432 kJ battery energy that supports 8.10 minutes of runtime at full load and extends to 24.40 minutes at half load. The maintenance-free, sealed lead-acid battery is hot-swappable for easy replacement and typically recharges within 2 hours after use. With a 540 J surge energy rating and pure sine wave output, the unit protects sensitive industrial equipment from power disturbances while maintaining clean, stable power delivery.
Management capabilities include DB9 RS-232/SmartSlot connectivity for comprehensive network monitoring, configurable alarms for battery status, low battery, and overload conditions, and an EPO (Emergency Power Off) port for safety-critical applications. The LED status display provides clear visual indicators for on-line operation, battery usage, replace battery warning, and overload conditions. The unit operates at sound levels of 55 dB(A) and dissipates 90 BTU/h of thermal energy, making it suitable for enclosed panel installations.
