Inter-Tech IPC ASPOWER U2A-B20500-S 500W
Inter-Tech IPC ASPOWER U2A-B20500-S 500W
The Inter-Tech IPC ASPOWER U2A-B20500-S computer power supply, with a 500W output, powers specialised server and industrial IPC builds where continuous operation is essential. Its specific 70 × 100 × 225mm format makes it easy to install in cases with limited internal space. This 500W server power supply delivers stable energy for the reliable operation of critical systems. The full-range input from 100V to 240V automatically adapts to the local electrical grid. Additionally, active Power Factor Correction (PFC) improves current draw efficiency from the mains and helps stabilise the power supply.

Choosing a power supply
When choosing a suitable PC power supply, the key parameter besides the format is its power output. This indicates the maximum number of watts the power supply can continuously provide to the computer's components. It is a good idea to use a web-based calculator to determine the optimal power output based on your chosen components.
Efficiency and reliability
The power supply meets the 80 PLUS certification requirements, which reduces electricity consumption and limits the production of residual heat. Lower thermal losses contribute to a longer component lifespan and reduce the cooling demands of the entire build. The full-range input from 100V to 240V automatically adapts to the local electrical grid without needing a manual switch.
Comprehensive protection for demanding environments
A set of five safety mechanisms supports operation in demanding conditions. The equipment includes five integrated safety protections to prevent component damage, including overvoltage, overcurrent, overload, short-circuit, and overheating protection. Cooling is handled by a 60mm fan with automatic speed control, which adjusts its performance according to the current load and temperature. The power supply operates within a wide operating temperature range from 0°C to 50°C.

80 Plus certification in the European market
The 80 Plus certification was created to objectively evaluate the efficiency of computer power supplies. This gives users a simple and clear comparison between different models. On the European market (where a 230V voltage is used), there are six levels of 80 Plus certification with set requirements for computer power supplies. Higher energy efficiency primarily means lower energy consumption.
