Product Features
Technical Overview
This line interactive UPS operates with a single-phase 120V AC input and delivers a stable 120V AC sine wave output at 60Hz. The automatic voltage regulation (AVR) function corrects under-voltage and over-voltage conditions without switching to battery power, extending runtime and reducing wear. The input voltage range of 110V to 125V AC accommodates typical North American power variances.
The unit includes serial, network (RJ-45), and USB (HID compliant) ports for flexible monitoring and shutdown control. The lead-acid battery provides 5 minutes of runtime at full load and 19 minutes at half load, with a typical recharge time of 3 hours. Energy Star certification confirms efficient operation, while RoHS compliance ensures environmentally responsible manufacturing.
This section brings together practical product details such as AVR, Plug/Connector Type, Receptacle Type, Load Capacity (VA), so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
