7.Unpack the bezel and hold it with the cutout section on the right. Align the tabs on the side of the bezel with the slots on the front of the UPS and gently snap it into place.

To connect an optional external battery pack(s) to the UPS, refer to the 2U Battery Pack User’s Manual for instructions. The Smart-UPS 1400 XL can support a maximum of ten external battery packs, model SU24RMXLBP2U.

CONNECTING EQUIPMENT AND POWER TO THE UPS

Avoid using extension cords and adapter plugs.

Do not connect a laser printer to the UPS. A laser printer draws significantly more power than other types of equipment and may overload the UPS.

1.Connect equipment to the UPS.

2.Connect the UPS to the utility power supply.

230V models: Plug the UPS into a two-pole, three-wire, grounding receptacle only. Your UPS is not supplied with an input line cord. Three output line cords are supplied for con- necting equipment. Additional cords are available from your dealer.

Swap an input cord from another piece of equipment with one of the supplied output cords. The input cord used for the UPS must be three conductor—1.0 mm2, rated 10 Amps. Plug this equipment input line cord into the inlet on the rear panel of the UPS and then into utility power. If your equipment does not have a removable line cord, see your dealer or contact APC at www.apc.com/support/contact, to obtain a suitable input line cord.

120V/100V models: The power cord is permanently attached to the rear panel of the UPS.

Connect the ground lead to the TVSS screw located on the rear panel. Refer to TVSS Screw under Smart-UPS Rear Panel in Chapter 3. The transient voltage surge suppression (TVSS) screw provides grounding through the UPS power cord ground conductor. To make the

American Power Conversion (APC) has long been renowned for its commitment to providing reliable power protection solutions. One of their well-regarded offerings is the APC 750VA, 100VAC Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS). This model is designed to safeguard sensitive electronic equipment from power disturbances while ensuring continuous operation during outages.

The APC 750VA, 100VAC UPS is built to accommodate the power requirements of small networks, home office setups, and personal use. With a 750VA power capacity, it provides essential support for a variety of devices, including computers, networking equipment, and peripherals, ensuring that they remain operational during unexpected power interruptions.

One of the standout features of this APC model is its sine wave output. Unlike traditional modified sine wave outputs, sine wave technology delivers a smoother waveform, which is less stressful on connected devices, improving their longevity and performance. The UPS also includes automatic voltage regulation (AVR) that stabilizes voltage levels by correcting minor power fluctuations without switching to battery mode, thereby extending battery life and reducing unnecessary wear.

The unit also boasts several communication options. It features USB and serial ports that allow for easy connection to management software, enabling users to monitor power usage and battery health. The built-in alarm systems similarly notify users of power disturbances or battery failure, providing critical alerts that facilitate timely interventions.

Another notable characteristic of the APC 750VA UPS is its compact form factor, making it easy to position within home or office environments without consuming much space. The design is also user-friendly, featuring a clear LED display that shows battery status, load level, and overall health status at a glance.

In terms of battery characteristics, the UPS uses sealed lead-acid batteries that are user-replaceable, simplifying maintenance and ensuring that the system continues to operate effectively over the years. The battery runtime is adjustable, allowing users to choose between higher performance for critical devices or extended backup time for non-essential devices.

Overall, the APC 750VA, 100VAC UPS is a versatile and robust power protection solution, blending innovative technology with practical design elements to meet the diverse needs of users in a variety of settings. With its reliable performance, advanced features, and user-friendly interface, it has become an essential component for ensuring continuous power availability and protecting valuable electronics.
