![]() Cool i will get the batteries. I should have mentioned originally that these are USED they were backing up some communications equipment for the past few years. With a new battery they will be good as new, there really isnt much in these things that age other than the battery
![]() I will PM you guys when i get them together. Ken |

http://www.apcc.com/resource/include..._sku=SU1400NET look at the "Batteries and Runtime" values on the spec sheet these are correct, the original spec sheet i looked at was INCORRECT it was for a rack mounted model. I think you can expect alot more time out of the UPS than listed if you are running PC lighting. Here are a couple pics of the units ![]() ![]() Thanks, Ken |

I was hoping someone with some electrical background and experience with UPS's could confirm that this is an appropriate unit for our uses. I've heard some about the different types of power delivered being hard on pumps. If you look at the apcc website, they make many, many models...most of which were designed to power computers, not pumps. |

A continuous UPS is a better unit and if I'm not mistaken these units are continuous. In this case the power coming into the unit is run though a transformer and to the batteries then through the inverter and to whatever you are running off the UPS. There are 2 advantages to this, there is no millisecond drop when the unit switches to battery in the case of an interruption and because the batteries need very "clean" power the transformer must provide an almost perfect wave and constant voltage. You won't get any of the little dips and spikes out of a good UPS that you get from mains power, I can't see that being bad for a pump. Unless there is something I don't understand about pump motors I don't see where any damage could result. |
