FAQs
What is the difference between a line interactive and standby UPS?
A line interactive UPS (like the Back-UPS Pro 900VA) continuously monitors input voltage and uses automatic voltage regulation (AVR) to stabilise minor fluctuations without switching to battery. This reduces battery drain and extends battery life. A standby UPS only engages the battery during power loss. Line interactive units are ideal for environments with unstable mains power.
How long will the UPS support connected equipment during a power outage?
Runtime depends on the load (watts) connected to the UPS. The 900VA/540W capacity provides full protection for loads up to 540W. For example, a 200W load will run longer than a 450W load. Actual runtime varies by device type and battery age. Contact Hyetech for specific load calculations.
Can I replace the battery myself?
Yes. The Back-UPS Pro 900VA features a user-replaceable lead-acid battery (model APCRBC164), allowing cost-effective maintenance without professional service calls. Replacement batteries are readily available from Hyetech Australia and other distributors.
Is the Back-UPS Pro 900VA suitable for server rooms or data centres?
The Back-UPS Pro 900VA is designed for office and small business environments. While it provides reliable protection for workstations, routers, and NAS devices, larger server installations or data centres typically require higher-capacity UPS units. Contact Hyetech to discuss your specific requirements.
Does the UPS work with 50Hz and 60Hz power supplies?
Yes. The Back-UPS Pro 900VA features auto-sensing frequency detection (50/60Hz ±3Hz) and can operate in both Australian 50Hz and international 60Hz environments. The output frequency synchronises to the mains supply.
What certifications does the Back-UPS Pro 900VA have for Australian use?
The unit holds RCM (Regulatory Compliance Mark), C-Tick, A-Tick, and CE certifications. It complies with Australian electrical safety standards and international UPS standards (EN/IEC 62040-1 and EN/IEC 62040-2), ensuring safe operation in Australian facilities.
What is the transfer time and why does it matter?
Transfer time (10ms typical) is how long the UPS takes to switch to battery power during an outage. This brief interval is usually imperceptible to computers and modern equipment. Fast transfer time ensures minimal disruption to operations and reduces data loss risk.
Can the Back-UPS Pro 900VA be rack-mounted?
No. The Back-UPS Pro 900VA is a compact tower unit and is not rack-mountable. It is designed for placement on or beside desks, shelves, or office furniture. For rack-mounted UPS solutions, contact Hyetech for alternative products.
