8 UPS Requirements
If frequent power shutdowns or fluctuations are expected, Uster
Technologies recommends that an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS)
be used to prevent loss of data or other related problems. An UPS is an
available option.
CAUTION:
An UPS should NOT be plugged into 220V outlets! It is important
to connect the UPS using an IEC to NEMA adapter (256-620-
03940) and a NEMA power cord (256-670-00070). Or, order the
UPS Option Kit, #255-010-18560.
The following specifications should be noted:
Partial System Support (without the Vacuum Blower)
Protects computer system, motors, and power supplies, but NOT the
blower:
• If UPS is purchased locally, we recommend APC Model BR1200, or
equivalent with the following characteristics:
o "Line Interactive" or “AVR” (automatic voltage regulation) for
maximum protection against line transients - under voltages
(brownouts) and over voltages (spikes).
o Minimum output power rating of 1200VA – 780 Watts at 120
Volts 50-60 Hz.
o Must be TÜV certified or bear the CE mark for European
countries and be UL listed for North America.
o Run time of 10 minutes or greater.
Entire System Support (with Vacuum Blower):
• Uster Technologies Inc does not offer the option to purchase a UPS
to protect the entire HVI1000 system.
• It is recommended that entire system UPS units be purchased locally.
We recommend Superior Electric #SLI3000XR for European and
North American power systems or their equivalent. The UPS should
also meet the above listed requirements.
