The tower UPS includes eight outlets — six with battery backup and surge protection and two with surge protection only. It has a surge energy rating of 509 Joules, a typical runtime of 1 hour 8 minutes at a 100 W load, dimensions of 25 x 10 x 38.2 cm and weighs 10.9 kg. The unit is CE certified, comes with a two-year warranty and supports a user-replaceable APC replacement battery cartridge to restore original performance.

Advantages

The APC Back-UPS Pro 1600VA combines battery backup and surge protection in one tower unit to protect connected equipment from outages and spikes. Multiple battery-backed outlets keep critical devices running during short power interruptions, while surge-only outlets protect peripherals that do not require battery support. The UPS is compatible with a user-replaceable battery cartridge for straightforward maintenance and long-term reliability. CE certification and a two-year warranty provide compliance and manufacturer support.

How to use

Place the UPS in a ventilated, stable location near the equipment it will protect. Connect high-priority devices (computers, routers, external drives, game consoles) to the battery-backed outlets and connect less critical peripherals to the surge-only outlets. Plug the UPS into a grounded wall outlet and power it on. Monitor load and runtime requirements; replace the battery with an APC replacement battery cartridge when the UPS indicates battery wear or during routine maintenance following the manufacturer’s instructions.

Recommendations

For optimal protection, regularly check connected equipment power draws to ensure the UPS is not overloaded and schedule battery replacement with an APC replacement cartridge before runtime significantly degrades. Keep the unit in a cool, dry place and ensure good ventilation around the tower.
