APC Back-UPS ES 700

The worst thing that can happen to you when you work on a computer is a power outage a few seconds before you wanted to save your work. Almost all your work has vanished, and you have to start again from scratch. Such catastrophic scenarios can be forestalled by the APC Back-UPS ES 700 backup source, or UPS. This hardware is practically a large battery that provides power for all types of electronics. The APC Back-UPS ES 700 UPS uses the Off-line design approach. Off-line is classified as the most basic form because it switches to the internal battery for electric power when power fails.

The most important attribute is the battery run time. This is governed by the power consumption of the connected appliances – for example, at half-load (50%), the battery backup time can last up to three times as long. The load of the backup source defines the operating time, which at full load (100%) is 3,7 min and at half-load, it's 12,6 min. It is therefore crucial to calculate the power consumption of the connected computers, monitors and other electronics and it is a good idea to have some spare energy in reserve. The APC Back-UPS ES 700 shows the apparent power as 700 , but realistically, the actual usage matches the value of 405 W.
