Similar heart-stopping situations can be averted by the APC Back-UPS BX 1200VA (FR) uninterrupted power supply (UPS). This is just another name for a large battery that powers all types of electronics. The APC Back-UPS BX 1200VA (FR) UPS uses the Line interactive design approach.

APC Back-UPS BX 1200VA (FR) Backup Power Supply Key Features

• Backup power design: Line interactive
• Actual performance: 900 W
• At maximum load, the UPC will run for 1 min

An important attribute is the UPS run time during outages. This is governed by the energy consumption – for example, at half-load (50%), the backup time will last a longer amount of time. The load of the UPS defines the operating time, which at maximum load is 1 min and at a load of 50%, it's 6,5 min. It is therefore essential to calculate the energy consumption of the connected appliances and it is best to have some extra power left. The APC Back-UPS BX 1200VA (FR) specifies the apparent power as 1600, but in reality, the actual power usage is 900 W.
