Is this UPS Safe For my PC/PSU?

[aidynphoenix]

have a "APC BE750BB" uninterruptible Power Supply,

i'm wanting to use it with my computer to be sure its safe from power outages, and surges/spikes.

but before i try it out. i would like to be sure its safe for my power supply/pc.

my power supply is a Corsair CMPSU-850TX

also want to be sure my 5year warranty will still be covered even though it will be on a ups.

 

however on the data sheet it lists output of 115 Vrms + 8%

(step-approximated sine wave)

50-60 Hz + 1 Hz

Transfer Time 6 ms typical, 10 ms maximum

 

im concerned about the +8% voltage approximation..

8% of 115 is 9.2 which means it could possibly output 124.2Vrms right?

is that still safe?

hi

yes all ups is sure for pc

It like a realy good powerber with a batery

In fact evry one should ave a smale one like yours

u are concerned about the +8% voltage approximation..

But with out your ups

u could get spike to 139v

So it bether to use ure ups vs nothing at all

u could still buy a bether ups for about 200$

 

Hope this help

sincerly yours

We would suggest only using Pure Sign Wave APC or battery back up units with any of our PSU's but I would check with the APC or battery Back up manufacturer for compatibility information.

I am building a pc using the CORSAIR Professional Series Gold AX1200 and was told I should protect it from volatage fluctuations. I have a whole house generator so do not need battery backup per se, but do want to get the right product. What would you recommend? Thanks

Actually you really do not need anything other than a good power strip. Corsair PSU already have that kind of protection already built into the PSU. So if you do not need a battery backup save your self the money.
