Adaptability

Adjustable voltage sensitivity - Provides the ability to adapt the UPS for optimal performance in specific power environments or generator applications.
Adjustable voltage-transfer points - Maximizes useful battery life by widening the input voltage window or tightening the output voltage regulation.

Availability

Power conditioning - Protects connected loads from surges, spikes, lightning, and other power disturbances.
Intelligent battery management - Maximizes battery performance, life, and reliability through intelligent, precision charging.
Boost and Trim Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) - Gives higher application availability by correcting low and high voltage conditions without using the battery (not available on all models).
Disconnected battery notification - Warns when a battery is not available to provide backup power.
Automatic self-test - Periodic battery self-test ensures early detection of a battery that needs to be replaced.
Automatic restart of loads after UPS shutdown - Automatically starts up the connected equipment upon the return of utility power.
Temperature-compensated battery charging - Prolongs battery life by regulating the charge voltage according to battery temperature.

Manageability

Serial connectivity - Provides management of the UPS via a serial port.
LED status indicators - Quickly understand unit and power status with visual indicators.
Audible alarms - Provides notification of changing utility power and UPS conditions.
Network manageable - Provides remote power management of the UPS over the network.
USB connectivity - Provides management of the UPS via a USB port (not available on all models).

Safety

Safety-agency approved - Ensures the product has been tested and approved to work safely with the connected service provider equipment and within the specified environment.
