We would not wish it on our worst enemy. A power outage minutes before your work was about to be automatically saved. The unsaved work is irretrievably lost, and you have to start again from scratch. Such tragic scenarios can be averted by the APC Back-UPS BX 2200VA (IEC) UPS. This hardware is practically a battery reservoir that powers all appliances needing electricity. The APC Back-UPS BX 2200VA (IEC) UPS battery backup has the Line interactive design approach. Off-line is seen as the most basic form in case of a outage because it switches to the internal battery for electric power. The line interactive UPS also adds voltage regulation to guard against dangerous surges travelling along data lines.
The most important parameter is how long the UPS will function when the electricity is off. This is governed by the energy consumption – for example, at half-load (50%), the UPS power time can last up to three times as long. The load of the UPS governs the operating time, which at full load is 1 min and at half-load, it's 8,5 min. It is therefore essential to estimate the power consumption of the connected appliances and it is a good idea to add some spare power left. The APC Back-UPS BX 2200VA (IEC) measures the apparent power as 2200, but realistically, the actual power usage is 1200 W.
