Introduction

The APC Smart-UPS® RT is a high-performance, uninterruptible power supply (UPS) that 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.

INSTALLATION

Read the Safety Instruction sheet before installing the UPS.
