The CyberPower CP1500PFCLCD PFC Sinewave UPS 1500VAfrom CyberPower CP1500PFCLCD PFC Sinewave UPS 1500VAis a mini-tower device with line-interactive topology that provides battery backup via sine wave output and surge protection for desktop computers, workstations, networking devices, and home entertainment systems requiring active PFC power source compatibility. It comes equipped with an output capacity of 1500 VA / 1000W, features an input voltage range of 88-144 VAC @ 57-63 Hz, Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) to help correct minor power fluctuations without switching to battery power, and has integrated circuitry for EMI/RFI filters. An integrated color LCD panel, which tilts up to 22°, can be used to quickly confirm status and alerts, while a USB Type-C and Type-A port share 3.1A for charging portable devices such as mobile phones and tablets.

When running at half capacity, this UPS can power devices for up to 10 minutes. When running with a full load, it can power devices for up to 2.5 minutes. It can be recharged in around 8 hours and offers twelve total NEMA 5-15R outlets, six of which are equipped with battery and surge protection, while the other six are only equipped with surge protection. The surge-protected outlets can absorb up to 1445 joules for keeping your devices safe against surges and spikes. Other connections offered are a right-angle NEMA 5-15P input plug with a 45° offset and 5' cord, plus serial, USB Type-B, Ethernet RJ45.

This power supply is ENERGY STAR qualified with GreenPower UPS Bypass technology for reducing energy consumption and heat buildup to help save energy costs. Available as a free download is the PowerPanel Business Edition UPS management software, which requires minimal system resources and monitors the status of the UPS to ensure it is working properly. When a power outage does occur, this software automatically saves open files and powers down the system into hibernation mode. When your PC is running in hibernation mode, the power supply will offer a longer runtime. This CyberPower UPS provides a lifetime connected equipment guarantee of up to $500,000.

Supplies power long enough for equipment to properly shut down when utility power fails. Helps prevent loss of data and minimizes the component stress caused by a hard shutdown.

Diverts excess voltage away from sensitive electronic equipment during an AC power surge or power spike to prevent damage.

The UPS generates energy that is identical to, or cleaner than the utility company's power grid. Benefits include low total harmonic distortion, minimal electrical noise, and optimal line clarity.

Displays immediate, detailed information on the UPS battery and power conditions. The color display quickly alerts users to potential problems before they can affect critical equipment and cause downtime. Screen tilts up to 22° for easy viewing.

AVR increases the AC power and maintains a safe voltage level without switching to battery mode and conserving battery life.

Rapidly charge and power USB devices whether the UPS is providing utility or battery backup power. There is one USB Type-C port and one USB Type-A port that share 3.1A of power.

Helps prevent power surges that travel through Ethernet lines from causing damage to electronics.

The two widely-spaced outlets allow you to conveniently add transformer-sized plugs without blocking other outlets.

Exists when a line interactive UPS has an autotransformer that regulates low voltages (e.g., brownouts) and over voltages (e.g., spikes) without having to switch to battery.

This model is an ENERGY STAR certified Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) system. ENERGY STAR is the trusted, government-backed symbol for energy-efficient products and practices that help save money and protect the environment.

A patented design that allows utility power to bypass the UPS transformer, when AC power is stable, which reduces energy consumption, noise, and heat buildup.

Minimizes noise during operation for a quieter work environment.

Provides IT professionals with tools for monitoring and managing the UPS and backup power. This software offers remote management functionality. This software can be downloaded for free from CyberPower.

CyberPower will repair or replace a defective UPS system (including batteries) within three years of the purchase date.

CyberPower will repair or replace properly connected equipment if it is damaged by a power surge.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Does it work with 220-240 volt plug ?

A: This is for 88 - 140v input only.

Q: 2. Are the batteries hot swapable?

A: The batteries are not hot-swappable.

Q: 3. Can this software be installed on macOS Catalina? I am getting errors that it can't be checked by Apple.

A: Hold the Control key down when installing the .dmg file. That will display an "open" icon.

Q: 4. I plan to use the CyberPower CP1500PFCLCD for my electronics work bench. When doing an initial test of an old radio or test equipment for the first time I bring the power up slowly from a variac. If the variac it getting its power from the UPS would this cause a problem?

A: It should not as long as it does not exceed the UPS capabilities but we could not guarantee it.

Q: 5. Does it include with network card?

A: The CyberPower CP1500PFCLCD PFCR does not come with a network card it requires an optional RM card, the optional RMCARD will provide remote monitoring and management over a network.

Q: 6. Can this be used horizontally and the lcd screen rotated?

A: No it is not able to do so.

Q: 7. How long does it last on Battery power

A: I have experienced one power outage and one brown out . In each case, I chose to finish my work within five minutes and shut down the computer, so I am not able to say with certainty how long the unit will operate on battery power. The accompanying product literature states that the estimated run time of the unit is 129 minutes.

Q: 8. When AC grid power is restored, will the UPS turn on automatically, power up all connected devices and charge battery?

A: Yes, the CyberPower CP1500PFC will turn back on when power is restored. This is a setting you can change if you would prefer it to stay off until manually switched back on again.

Q: 9. Are the batteries replaceable and, if so, what battery and how difficult is it to replace them?

A: Yes they are replaceable. One small screw on the bottom and the cover slides, then lifts off. Slide the battery part way out and disconnect the (2) wires. Reverse to install new battery. We use (2) Duracell Ultra (# DURA12-9f2) batteries. Which are 12V 9AH AGM batteries.

Q: 10. What happens when grid power is off longer than the UPS battery will last and all connected devices lose power?

A: If the grid power is off longer than the CyberPower CP1500PFCLCD PFC Sinewave UPS BH #CYCP1500PFCQ can keep your devices on, it will shut down and the devices will lose power. When the power resumes, it will recharge the battery and you will be able to power it up again.
