“Must Have” Safety and Reliability Features

In order for a UPS to give you the peace of

mind and security you need, it must provide

certain fundamental features. Without these

the performance of your connected equip-

ment could be seriously compromised. If

you depend on your computer, don’t go

without the following:

Site Wiring Fault Indicator

Your unit must be able to tell you if it is

going to provide the protection you need

based on existing building wiring. That’s

why every APC Back-UPS includes a Site

Wiring Fault Indicator which automatically

and immediately warns you of wiring prob-

lems like improper grounds that could cause

shocks or prevent the UPS from adequately

suppressing surges.

Easy Overload Recovery

UPS units are by definition designed to take

punishment. Like your fuse box at home, all

APC Back-UPS have a quick, easy push-but-

ton recovery circuit breaker instead of a

standard fuse, so there is no need to return

the unit to the factory for service! Whether

you’re hit by an overload or a short circuit,

with APC you’re quickly back in business.

Audible Alarms

Your UPS must actively let you know when-

ever there’s a problem. Because a UPS won’t

run forever on battery power, you need to

know when to save files and shut down. If

the unit is on battery, or if the battery is

low, or even if there is an overload condi-

tion, APC Back-UPS will let you know with

an audible alarm. If a UPS doesn’t tell you

what it’s doing, you may as well not have a

UPS at all.

“On Battery” Alarm

An intermittent Alarm signals when connected

equipment is running on battery power, alert-

ing you to save data and close valuable files.

“Low Battery” Alarm

A continuous tone alarm signals low bat-

tery, reminding you to save data prior to

impending shutdown.

Overload Alarm

An overloaded UPS may not provide ade-

quate runtime for you to save your files and

data in the event of a power failure. This

feature allows you to correct the overload to

ensure you receive the runtime you need.

User-renewable UPS System

Your UPS must be renewable. With normal

use, a UPS battery will last three to six

years. At the end of the battery’s life, the

APC Back-UPS renewable UPS system elimi-

nates the need for factory service and loss

of protection by letting you replace batteries

for a fraction of the cost of a whole new

UPS. Battery Replacement Cartridges (avail-

able at www.apcc.com or see your local

dealer/distributor) provide eco-friendly recy-

cling of your battery, meet all state and fed-

eral regulations for battery disposal and

provide a postage-paid container for you to

ship the used battery to APC.
