Product Features
Technical Overview
This online UPS employs double-conversion technology, continuously converting incoming AC power to DC and back to AC, isolating connected equipment from all power anomalies. It delivers a pure sine wave output with 98% efficiency in ECO mode, minimizing energy waste and heat generation. The unit supports a broad output voltage range from 100V AC to 240V AC and frequencies of 50 Hz or 60 Hz, ensuring compatibility with global equipment standards.
Power management is facilitated through an 180V DC system voltage, valve-regulated lead-acid batteries, and hot-swappable, user-replaceable battery modules. The built-in EMI/RFI noise filter and surge suppression protect against electrical interference, while the circuit breaker and thermal dissipation of 1560 BTU/h maintain safe operating conditions. The UPS operates within a temperature range of 32°F to 104°F (0°C to 40°C), suitable for controlled environments.
