Product Features
Technical Overview
This single-phase line-interactive UPS features a transfer time of 6 ms and an input frequency of 60 Hz, ensuring seamless transition to battery power during outages. The pure sine wave output maintains compatibility with active PFC power supplies and sensitive electronic equipment, reducing the risk of data loss or hardware damage. The unit includes automatic voltage regulation (AVR) to correct undervoltage and overvoltage conditions without draining the battery, extending battery life and improving overall system reliability.
The battery system uses valve-regulated lead-acid chemistry and is hot-swappable for easy replacement without shutting down connected loads. With a typical recharge time of 4 hours, the UPS quickly restores backup capacity after use. The surge energy rating of 1372 joules provides additional protection against power spikes.
Relevant factors for this section include AVR, Plug/Connector Type, Receptacle Type, Load Capacity (VA). When those points are considered together, they give buyers a clearer picture of how the product is equipped, how it fits into deployment, and what kind of day-to-day role it is meant to support.
