General Features
Manageability
  • Warns when a battery is not available to provide backup power.
  • Use your PC to access additional power protection and management features for your UPS via a USB Port.
  • Provides key UPS status at a glance. Multiple status indicators with load and battery bar graphs.
  • Provides notification of changing utility power and UPS power conditions.
Safety
  • Ensures the product has been tested and approved to work safely with the connected service provider equipment and within the specified environment.
Availability
  • Maximizes battery performance, life, and reliability through intelligent, precision charging.
  • Toggle between predetermined voltage-transfer points depending on your power quality (high, medium or low sensitivity), maximizing useful battery life and protecting sensitive electronics.
  • Provides early-warning fault analysis on batteries enabling timely preventive maintenance.
  • Provides temporary battery power when the utility power is out.
  • Periodic battery self-test ensures early detection of a battery that needs to be replaced.
  • Protect equipment with input transformer blocks without blocking access to other receptacles.
  • Gives higher application availability by correcting low- and high-voltage conditions without using the battery (not available on all models).
  • Energy saving feature automatically powers off peripherals when the master device, usually a PC, hibernates or is shut down. Power to peripherals is immediately restored when the master device wakes up or is switched on.
  • Adjust the voltage points (widen or tighten the range) where your UPS transfers to battery to maximize useful battery life and protect sensitive electronics.
  • Patent-pending operating mode that bypasses unused electrical components in good power conditions to achieve very high operating efficiency without sacrificing any protection.
Serviceability
  • Increases UPS availability by allowing quick, easy battery replacement.
  • Easy recovery from overloads; no need to replace a fuse.
Protection
  • Protect secondary electronics from surges and spikes without reducing battery power used to run primary electronics during an outage.
  • Provides protection of connected equipment from power surges on the data lines.
  • Back up and protect your hardware and data during power outages, surges and spikes.
Additional Features
  • Patent-pending operating mode that bypasses unused electrical components in good power conditions to achieve very high operating efficiency without sacrificing any protection.
  • Energy saving feature automatically powers off peripherals when the master device, usually a PC, hibernates or is shut down. Power to peripherals is immediately restored when the master device wakes up or is switched on.
  • Reserves power capacity and run time for connected equipment that require UPS battery backup while providing surge only protection for less critical equipment.
  • Provides key UPS status at a glance. Multiple status indicators with load and battery bar graphs.
  • Preserves battery life and maximizes runtime by correcting low voltages without discharging the battery.
