AVR
685VA – 1500VA Mini-Tower & Compact CP Models
AVR mini-tower and compact UPS models, with Line-Interactive topology, provide
simulated sine wave output to individual home and small office computer systems.
These models correct minor power fluctuations without switching to battery, thereby
extending battery life—essential in areas where power fluctuations occur frequently.
Key User Benefits
Simulated Sine Wave Output — Provide cost-effective power protection to servers,
telecom and peripheral electronics.
Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) — Protect connected equipment and prevent costly
business interruptions by delivering clean and consistent AC power to your computers,
workstations and peripherals.
GreenPower UPS
™
Bypass or High-Efficiency Design — Save UPS energy costs by
reducing power consumption and heat buildup.
Ultra-Quiet Design — Minimize UPS sound emission for a quieter work environment.
Computer Monitoring — Safeguard open files and equipment with PowerPanel
®
Personal Edition
management software that features a user-friendly dashboard interface for controlling and monitoring a
CyberPower UPS.
Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) in line-interactive UPS systems stabilizes
the incoming AC signal—controlling high and low voltages—to maintain
output power at a nominal 120 volts, without resorting to battery power.
This significantly increases battery life and reduces the likelihood of data loss,
memory freezes and system crashes.
How AVR works in a Line-Interactive UPS
A line-interactive UPS includes an AVR autotransformer, a special type of
transformer designed to add or subtract powered coils of wire in response
to variances in utility power input, thereby increasing or decreasing the
magnetic field and the resulting output voltage to connected equipment.
This type of UPS can tolerate undervoltage brownouts and overvoltage
surges, without consuming reserve battery power, by automatically selecting
different power taps on the AVR autotransformer. In normal operation,
incoming AC current passes through the autotransformer where highs and
lows are controlled, while also charging the internal storage battery.
When the incoming voltage falls below a predetermined level, the UPS
switches to battery back-up and the DC-AC inverter circuitry is engaged.
Power will continue to be supplied by the battery-inverter circuit until
incoming voltage returns to within the AVR manageable range.
