You've probably already experienced the nightmare of a power supply interruption just before you finished working. The unsaved work is irretrievably lost, and you have to start again from nothing. Similar heart-stopping situations can be averted by the APC Smart-UPS X 3000VA rack/tower 200-240V with network card backup source, or UPS. This is just another name for a battery reservoir that provides power for all types of computers and devices that need electricity to function. The APC Smart-UPS X 3000VA rack/tower 200-240V with network card UPS uses the Line interactive design approach. Off-line is the simplest form when power fails because it connects to the battery and disconnects from the mains power. The line interactive UPS also adds data line surge suppression to guard against dangerous surges travelling along data lines.
A key parameter is the UPS run time during outages. This is governed by the power consumption of the connected devices – for example, at half-load (50%), the backup time can last up to three times as long. The load of the backup source determines the operating time, which at full load (100%) is 6,3 min and at half-load, it's 18,1 min. It is therefore necessary to estimate the energy consumption of the connected computers, monitors and other electronics and it is best to have some spare energy in reserve. The APC Smart-UPS X 3000VA rack/tower 200-240V with network card specifies the apparent power as 3000, but in reality, the actual power usage is 2700 W.
