Extended Product Information

FAQs

How long will the battery last?

Runtime depends on the load. Under full load, the runtime is shorter. Under lighter loads, you'll get more runtime. See the APC documentation for specific runtime estimates.

How do I replace the battery?

The battery is user-replaceable. Follow the instructions in the user manual to safely remove and replace the battery. Ensure you use the correct replacement battery (APCRBC164).

What is AVR and why is it important?

AVR (Automatic Voltage Regulation) stabilizes the input voltage, protecting your devices from fluctuations and extending their lifespan.

What is the warranty period?

The standard warranty is 3 years, extendable to 6 years with the APC service pack.

Can I connect a printer to the UPS?

Yes, but consider the printer's power consumption. Only connect it to the surge-protected outlets if it does not require battery backup.

What should I do with my old battery?

Recycle the old battery properly. Contact your local recycling center for instructions.

Does the UPS protect against lightning strikes?

Yes, the UPS provides surge protection, helping to shield your connected equipment from damage caused by lightning strikes.

Where can I download the PowerChute software?

You can download the PowerChute Personal Edition software from the APC website.

Troubleshooting

UPS is not turning on.

Check the power connection. Ensure the UPS is plugged into a working outlet and the power switch is in the on position. Check the battery connection internally.

UPS beeping continuously.

The UPS is likely running on battery power. Check the power supply to the UPS. The beeping will cease when utility power is restored or the battery is depleted.

UPS is showing an overload.

Disconnect some devices to reduce the load below the UPS's capacity (540W). If the load is within the capacity, there may be a fault.

Battery is not providing backup power.

The battery may need to be replaced. Check the LCD for any battery-related error messages. Ensure the battery is properly connected.
