The OR1500PFCLCD PFC Sinewave UPS from CyberPower is a mini-tower device with line-interactive topology that provides surge protection and battery backup via sinewave output for department servers, workgroup servers, workstations, network devices, telecom installations, and high-end audio/video equipment requiring PFC power source compatibility. It comes equipped with an output capacity of 1500 VA / 1050W, features an input voltage range of 78-142 VAC at 50-60 Hz, to help correct minor power fluctuations without switching to battery power, which helps extend battery life and is useful in area where power fluctuations occur, and also has integrated circuitry for EMI/RFI filters. This UPS provides an integrated LCD panel for displaying immediate and detailed information on the UPS battery and power conditions, alerting users to potential problems before they can affect critical equipment and cause downtime.

When running with a full load, this UPS can power devices for up to 4 minutes. When running with a half load of 525W, it can power devices for up to 12.5 minutes. It can be recharged in around 8 hours and offers eight total NEMA 5-15R outlets that can absorb up to 1030 joules for keeping your devices safe against surges and spikes. To keep your devices powered during blackouts and brownouts, all eight outlets also provide battery power. Other connections offered are serial and USB Type-B.

This power supply is ENERGY STAR qualified with GreenPower UPS Bypass technology for reducing energy consumption and heat buildup to help save energy costs. Included with the power supply is a free download of PowerPanel Business Edition UPS management software, which enables centralized power management, monitoring, control, and configuration. It also provides for the safe shutdown of connected servers, workstations, and other devices via a standard web browser or network management system (NMS), as well as allow admins to remotely manage each aspect of the UPS, facilitate the orderly automatic shutdown of connected equipment, prioritize outlets, and increase battery backup runtimes for the most critical equipment in the event of an extended power outage. This CyberPower UPS provides a limited lifetime connected equipment guarantee of up to $200,000, a limited 3-year product warranty and includes a USB Type-A to Type-B cable.

Supplies power long enough for equipment to properly shut down when utility power fails. Helps prevent loss of data and minimizes the component stress caused by a hard shutdown.

Diverts excess voltage away from sensitive electronic equipment during an AC power surge or power spike to help prevent damage.

Exists when a line-interactive UPS has an auto-transformer that regulates low voltages, such as brownouts, and over voltages, such as spikes, without having to switch to its battery.

Provides clean, consistent AC power by automatically increasing (boosting) low voltage without using battery power when incoming utility power experiences minor fluctuations.

Provides power protection to ENERGY STAR 6.0 systems with Active PFC power supplies.

This is a patented design that allows utility power to bypass the UPS transformer when AC power is stable, which helps reduce energy consumption, noise, and heat buildup.

Helps prevent electromagnetic and radio frequency interference to ensure clean power for connected equipment.

Displays immediate, detailed information on the UPS battery and power conditions, alerting users to potential problems before they can affect critical equipment and cause downtime.

Identifies when the unit is running on battery power, has overloaded, or has a low battery.

Interrupts an electric current in a circuit when the current becomes too high.

Helps minimizes noise during operation for a quieter work environment.

Helps prolongs unit life with rugged casing made of impact-resistant material for greater durability.

Provides IT professionals with tools for monitoring and managing the UPS and backup power. This software offers remote management functionality.

CyberPower will repair or replace a defective UPS system (including batteries) within three years of the purchase date.

CyberPower will repair or replace properly connected equipment if it is damaged by a power surge.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. I plan to use the CyberPower CP1500PFCLCD for my electronics work bench. When doing an initial test of an old radio or test equipment for the first time I bring the power up slowly from a variac. If the variac it getting its power from the UPS would this cause a problem?

A: It should not as long as it does not exceed the UPS capabilities but we could not guarantee it.

Q: 2. Does it really come with the SNMP card as showed on the picture? Thanks.

A: The CyberPower CP1500PFCLCD PFC Sinewave UPS BH #CYCP1500PFCQ does not come with SNMP card.

Q: 3. Can I connect a three outlet 50 foot extension cord into a single surge+battery outlet on the UPS as I have 2-3 other devices too far away from where the UPS will be placed. The devices are a cable modem, WiFi router and Netgear router?

A: In order for the UPS to work as intended, it is not recommended to use any type of extension cord or to share outlets with more than 1 device.

Q: 4. Can you use a 2 Ft. 14 gauge extension cord with the CP 1500PFCLCD? I did use it for several years with a older CP1350PFCLCD. Or is a 2 Ft. 12 gauge extension cord better to use?

A: A 14ga extension cord should be adequate for the wattage capabilities of the CyberPower CP1500PFCLCD PFC Sinewave UPS.

Q: 5. Can this software be installed on macOS Catalina? I am getting errors that it can't be checked by Apple.

A: Hold the Control key down when installing the .dmg file. That will display an "open" icon.

Q: 6. So if I have a 3D printer that pulls about 50 watts, how long will this thing keep it running if power goes out?

A: According to the manufacturers runtime calculator a 50w load would be about 100 minutes.

Q: 7. Are the batteries hot swapable?

A: Hello, This unit is not hot-swappable. However, the battery is user replaceable. Thank you for your question.

Q: 8. If my PC has a 1200 watt Power supply will this be strong enough at 900 watts? Is this a pass through design?

A: The 900 watt rating is how many watts it will deliver when on battery. It's rated at 1500 watts pass-through when on line power. Even though your computer has a 1200 watt power supply, it more than likely never pulls that much. Most modern computers only draw 100-200 watts when idle or doing light tasks like email/web browsing. If you have 2-3 high-end power hungry video cards, are doing rendering or video processing, with a pile of hard drives, you could start getting up to the 900 watt limit. Buy a kill-a-watt and measure for sure. Also note that at 100% utilization on battery (drawing 900 watts) the run time is very short; maybe a minute or two. My workstation has an 850 watt power supply, a single GeForce 960 video card, i7-6700k, 16gb ram, 4 hdds and an ssd. With the router, a switch, and 2 monitors, I draw 350 watts when playing games & working on video encoding. I get approx. 15 minutes runtime. Idle it uses 75-100 watts, and a 30 min run time.

Q: 9. When AC grid power is restored, will the UPS turn on automatically, power up all connected devices and charge battery?

A: Yes, the CyberPower CP1500PFC will turn back on when power is restored. This is a setting you can change if you would prefer it to stay off until manually switched back on again.

Q: 10. Can B&H supply a 220v version of this or something comparable? If so, kindly send a link. Thanks.

A: Unfortunately, we do not have a 220v UPS.
