APC Easy-UPS BVX 900VA (IEC)

You've probably already experienced the nightmare of a power supply interruption just before your work was about to be automatically saved. Your document has disappeared, and you have to start again from scratch. Similar heart-stopping situations can be warded off by the APC Easy-UPS BVX 900VA (IEC) backup source, or UPS. This is just another name for a large battery that powers all devices that need electricity. The APC Easy-UPS BVX 900VA (IEC) UPS uses the Line interactive design approach. Off-line is the most basic form in case of a black-out, since it switches power to the UPS unit itself. The line interactive UPS also adds data line surge suppression to guard against dangerous surges travelling along data lines.

An important attribute is the UPS run time. This is governed by the power consumption of the connected devices – for example, at half-load (50%), the backup time lasts much longer. It is therefore essential to calculate the energy consumption of the connected computers, monitors and other electronics and it is best to have some spare energy in reserve. The APC Easy-UPS BVX 900VA (IEC) shows the apparent power as 900, but in reality, the actual power usage is 480 W.
