American Power Conversion HI600SQ Unpacking/Inspection of Home UPS at reseller location, Overview

Thank you for purchasing APC’s Home Appliance & Lighting UPS. Please fill out the enclosed Warranty Registration Card, or register your purchase on-line at: www.apc.com/support.

Overview

APC’s Home UPS (Figure 1) is designed for years of trouble-free use. The Home UPS is a squarewave back-up power supply intended to serve house loads. It is rated for 600 VA/360W at 230 Vac, 50-Hz, and operates on a wide range of input voltages (100 - 270V). If the input voltage goes out of range (less than 100V or more than 270V), the utility is isolated and the UPS supplies power to the load from an externally connected battery (may be purchased from APC, or from the supplier of your choice). The UPS can serve inductive loads (fluorescent lamps, ceiling and table fans), resistive loads (incandescent lamps), and switched mode power supply (SMPS) loads (television).
