What is the power rating for the DIN rail industrial UPS?

AC models are available with 500 VA (DIN500AC) and 850 VA (DIN850AC) power ratings. DC models are available with 240W (DIN24240DC) and 480W (DIN24480DC) power ratings.

Can the DIN rail industrial UPS withstand a wide range of temperatures?

Yes. There is no derating of the UPS based on its operating temperature range. The AC models have an operating temperature range of 32° to 122° F (0° to 50° C ). The DC models have an operating temperature range of 5° to 122° F (-15° to 50° C). In hot locations, these high temperature ratings reduce the need for cooling.

Can the DIN rail industrial UPS be mounted to any DIN rail?

The DIN rail industrial UPS has a pre-installed clamp to enable mounting to 35 mm DIN rails.

What enclosures can the DIN rail industrial UPS fit in?

The DIN rail industrial UPS has a compact housing and a pre-installed clamp for mounting to 35 mm DIN rails. The AC models are 5.2" H x 12.3" W x 5.5" D. The DC models are 5.1" H x 1.6" W x 4.7" D (without external battery modules).

Does the DIN rail industrial UPS have remote monitoring capabilities?

Yes. AC models are compatible with PowerAlert Office software for remote UPS monitoring and control via USB connection. DC models have dry contacts for battery status and UPS communication.

Is an external battery module required for the DC models of DIN rail industrial UPS?

The DC models (DIN24240DC and DIN24480DC) require the BPDIN24XL external battery module. The BPDIN24XL is sold separately and up to four battery modules can be used to extend runtime.

What is the approximate runtime for the BPDIN24XL external battery module?

With one BPDIN24XL battery module, the DIN24240DC UPS has a runtime of 10 minutes with a full load and 20 minutes with a half load. With one BPDIN24XL battery module, the DIN24480DC UPS has a runtime of 3 minutes with a full load and 10 minutes with a half load. Runtimes will vary based on battery condition and other factors.
