Power Control’s CertaUPS range features models available from 800VA to 20kVA, and includes the C200 which is described as an “advanced UPS with a pure sine wave output”.
With an AVR (automatic voltage regulator) as standard and wide input voltage window, it’s claimed the device regulates a precise output voltage without switching to battery power, even if the input voltage fluctuates by as much as 30 per cent from normal.
Developed as a compromise between offline (VFD) and online double conversion (VFI) technology, Power Control says the C200 utilises digital line interactive technology with a digitised PWM-based controller. It says this produces a pure sine wave output which makes it “perfect” for supporting critical equipment.
There are three models to choose from: the C200-1000 which offers maximum power of 700W; the C200-1500 which offers maximum power of 1050W; and the C200-2000 which offers maximum power of 1400W.
Backup time (full load) is stated as six hours for recovery to 90 per cent. Other features include auto shutdown in the event of a mains failure, auto-restart, cold start, off-mode charging, USB connectivity, and RJ11 and RJ45 filters. There’s also a ‘smart’ LCD that shows AC and battery modes, load and battery levels, input/output voltages, plus overload, fault and low battery indicators.
