UPS Power Conditioner With Battery Backup

Today's electronics demands often exceed the typical number of outlets readily available. Plus, power surges can wipe out valuable information and systems putting your home theater, computer, and other electronics at risk. This APC S10 Power Conditioner with back-up battery has a 700 W/1000 VA capacity that assures you have the power and protection you need.

Bulletproof Your Home Electronics World

Home electronics cost a lot of money, so it's smart to protect your investment with an Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPS). The American Power Conversion (APC) 700 W/1000 VA capacity S10 Power Conditioner with Battery Backup protects your high performance, high value audio and video (A/V) system from damaging power surges, spikes, and lightning, as well as power outages. Isolated noise filter banks and Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) eliminate power as a source of audio and video signal degradation. Pure sine wave battery backup power prevents interruptions, lost presets, missed DVR recordings, and lost media server data when the power goes out. Dataline surge protection jacks stop surges traveling over phone or data lines. Digital satellite systems, cable modems, and CATV coaxial cable lines are equally protected. With APC's S10, your entire home entertainment experience is bulletproofed from damage or interruption as a result of bad power. APC's S10 lets you enjoy your home theater experience with the peace of mind that performance is optimized and protection is guaranteed.

What's Susceptible To Outages? Only Everything Electronic

One blip in your power can be ruinous. If there's a surge or even momentary outage, you can lose practically your entire home theater set-up. Your onscreen electronic program guide can disappear, your DVR hard drive can be lost; and because fans stop running to cool them, expensive front projector lamps can overheat and blow out. This applies to rear projector TV lamps as well. Plus, all that invaluable custom programming the installer did will get wiped out and send you back to the factory presets, requiring another install. Not only is your home theater at risk, but so are music systems and computer hard drives.

Automatic Power Regulation Is The Answer

Thankfully, an APC UPS gives you enough time to shut everything down properly when there's a power problem. The transformer in the unit automatically regulates power, allowing the S10 to correct brownouts and over voltages between 90-140 volts to within 3% of 120 volts. If the power goes outside this range, the battery backup kicks in to keep your system safely up and running.

The Problem With Power

We live in the Information Age where enormous amounts of data are created, transmitted, and stored. Numerous electric-powered machines aid in business and household tasks, as well as entertain and inform us. The reality of living in this time of technological innovation is that the power generated to run our machines isn't all it might be, which is to say 120 volts at 60 Hz all the time. In many locations around the world, electricity generation, transmission, and distribution have not evolved at the same pace as entertainment, computer, and communications equipment. What was built years ago for powering factories producing manufactured goods is struggling to provide continuous, adequate power to sensitive electronics processing valuable information.

What Is A Power Event?

Sags, surges, noise, spikes, blackouts . . . . What really happens to connected devices when they experience a power anomaly? A lightning strike is a frequent example, although it's just one of many problems that can befall your equipment. Imagine lightning has just struck a nearby transformer. If the surge was powerful enough, it traveled instantaneously through wiring (AC, network, serial, phone lines, and more) with the electrical equivalent force of a tsunami. For computer users, the surge gets in through the AC outlet or phone lines. What's worse than a fried motherboard, modem, or hard drive? Not much. Your home theater system is vulnerable too, but at least you won't lose irreplaceable data there. Fortunately, you can avert all these disasters with only one device.

And That's Where The APC S10 Comes In

The APC S10 features a 700 W/1000VA output capacity with battery backup and adjustable voltage sensitivity. The batteries are hot-swapable without tools and the unit has resettable circuit breakers. It's UL approved and with a VFD (Vacuum Fluorescent Display) and LED status indicators, you get all the information needed to assure the system is running at optimal settings. Additional features include pure sine wave backup battery output, sequential turn on/off, isolated filter banks, and dataline surge protection. A USB data port jack enables the S10 to communicate with the included PowerChute Personal Edition software. If the unit is also protecting a home computer, the software will automatically save files and gracefully shutdown the operating system if the S10 is about to shutdown due to a low battery condition. Additional batteries can be added to extend backup time. The S10 is especially recommended for receivers and subwoofers.
