Introduction

About this UPS

The American Power Conversion (APC®) Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) provides protection for
electronic equipment from utility power blackouts, brownouts, sags and surges. The UPS filters small utility
line fluctuations and isolates electronic equipment from large disturbances by internally disconnecting from
utility line power. The UPS provides continuous power from the internal battery until utility power returns to
safe levels or the battery is fully discharged.
