Product Features
Technical Overview
This line-interactive UPS features automatic voltage regulation (AVR) to correct minor voltage fluctuations without switching to battery, extending runtime and battery life. It transfers to battery power in 6 ms to maintain continuous operation during outages. The unit includes an EMI/RFI noise filter to protect connected equipment from line noise and interference.
Power management is facilitated through a USB (HID compliant) port for basic communication with supported operating systems. The 12 V DC battery system is user-replaceable and typically recharges within 5 hours after a discharge event. Status is indicated via two LED lights: green for normal operation and red for battery-low, overload, replace-battery, or fault 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.
