Product Features
Technical Overview
This double conversion online UPS provides complete isolation from raw utility power, converting AC to DC and back to AC with pure sine wave output. The 0 ns transfer time eliminates any gap during switchover, while AVR corrects voltage sags and surges without engaging the battery. Efficiency reaches 98% in ECO mode, reducing operational costs and heat generation.
The battery system uses valve-regulated lead-acid chemistry with a 180V DC system voltage. Batteries are hot-swappable and user-replaceable, supporting runtime of 3 minutes at full load and 8 minutes at half load. Environmental operating range spans 32°F to 104°F (0°C to 40°C), suitable for standard data center and server room conditions.
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.
