Product Overview
The Tripp Lite ECO550UPS is a 550VA/300W standby UPS engineered for reliable backup power in retail, hospital, and computer peripheral environments. Its ultra-compact form factor supports flexible desktop, tower, or wall mount installation, making it suitable for space-constrained offices, point-of-sale systems, and home theater setups.
This unit delivers pure sine wave output, ensuring compatibility with sensitive electronics like servers, networking gear, and medical devices. With 10 NEMA 5-15R outlets—five providing surge-only protection—it powers and safeguards multiple devices simultaneously. The integrated USB HID-compliant port enables communication with connected systems for graceful shutdowns and power management via downloadable PowerAlert software.
Operating on a 12 V DC system with a valve-regulated lead acid battery, the ECO550UPS offers a typical battery life of six years. It provides 1.2 minutes of runtime at full load (300W) and extends to 5 minutes at half load, giving users adequate time to save files and perform safe shutdowns during power outages. The unit recharges fully within 6.5 hours after a discharge event.
Management features include a 2-LED indicator for line power and battery status, along with main power switch controls for ON, OFF, SELF-TEST, ALARM, and CANCEL functions. A second switch enables ECO outlet switching to optimize energy use. The alarm system remains silent in backup mode, activating only for critical conditions like battery faults, overloads, or low battery scenarios.
