Imagine a power outage just before your work was about to be automatically saved. Almost all your work has vanished, and you have to start again from scratch. Such tragic scenarios can be warded off by the Eaton UPS 3P Ellipse 550 IEC uninterrupted power supply (UPS). This is just another name for a battery reservoir that powers all appliances needing electricity. The Eaton UPS 3P Ellipse 550 IEC UPS features the Off-line design approach. Off-line is seen as the most basic form because it switches power to the UPS unit itself if the electricity is interrupted.


A key parameter is how long the UPS will function when the electricity is off. This is governed by the power consumption of the connected electronics – for example, at half-load (50%), the backup time will last a longer amount of time. The load of the backup source governs the operating time, which at full load is 1 min and at a load of 50%, it's 7 min. It is therefore essential to estimate the power consumption of the connected computers, monitors and other electronics and it is a good idea to add some spare power left. The Eaton UPS 3P Ellipse 550 IEC measures the apparent power as 550, but realistically, the actual power usage is 330 W.
