Features

600VA/360W/120V Battery Backup for PCs, Home Theater or Digital Signage

The line-interactive BC600TU UPS system with AVR protection provides reliable battery backup and AC
power protection against blackouts, brownouts, overvoltages, surges and line noise that can damage
valuable electronics or destroy data. The six-outlet 120V battery backup is ideal protection for your home
office, media center or commerce components, including computers, routers, printers, HDTVs, Blu-ray
players, game consoles, ATMs, security systems and digital signage equipment.

Allows Time to Back Up Critical Files During a Blackout

Backup support allows you to work through short power failures and gives you enough time to safely save
files and shut down your system in case of a prolonged blackout. Backup time varies according to load,
but the line-interactive UPS system should keep an energy-efficient desktop computer with small LCD
monitor powered as long as 35 minutes. During normal operation, incoming utility power keeps the
replaceable internal battery fully charged, so backup power will always be available.

6 NEMA 5-15R Outlets Protect Your Connected Components

Four 5-15R outlets provide battery backup, surge protection and voltage regulation for your computer,
monitor and other crucial components. The other two 5-15R outlets provide surge suppression only for
printers, speakers and other desktop equipment regarded as non-essential during a blackout.

Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) Corrects Low- and High-Voltage Conditions

AVR protects your equipment from incremental hardware damage, data loss and performance problems
caused by brownouts and overvoltages. The BC600TU can correct brownouts as low as 89V and
overvoltages as high as 145V back to nominal 120V power continuously, all while keeping the battery fully
charged and ready to take over in case of power failure.

316 Joules Fight Back Against Unexpected Power Surges

A 316-joule surge suppression rating protects connected components from the harmful effects of power
surges.

Combats Electromagnetic Interference That Can Harm Equipment

Various electromagnetic and radio sources found in virtually every home and business can cause
disruptive interference on the AC line. Known as EMI (electromagnetic interference) and RFI (radio

frequency interference), this line noise is a common cause of performance problems and can lead to
incremental hardware damage, data corruption and audio/video transmission problems. The BC600TU
incorporates technology that filters out disruptive line noise so that it won’t affect your equipment.

Designed for High Efficiency to Help You Save Money and Protect the Environment

A >95% efficiency rating reduces BTU emissions, energy consumption and, ultimately, your energy costs.

Home-Friendly Silent Alarm and Diagnostic LEDs Keep You Informed 24/7

The UPS remains silent in both line and battery backup modes. The alarm sounds only to report low
battery, battery replace, overload and fault condition. Front-panel LEDs report line and battery mode
operation.

This USB port connects the BC600TU to a computer running Tripp Lite’s free downloadable PowerAlert®
software to enable safe unattended file saves and system shutdown in case of a prolonged power failure.
USB cable is included.

Compact Housing Compatible with Easy Desktop Installation

The space-saving ABS tower fits on a desktop, shelf or any other flat surface convenient to your
workstation or home theater. The five-foot power cord with NEMA 5-15P plug connects to any compatible
