UPS for My receiver and other gadgets
- Thread starter manny9
- Start date
Interested in 1500 or 2200VA Sinewave Line Interactive or online UPS (based on pricing) for the following.
42" LCD - Philips 42PFL7409
HTPC - i3 530 based
PoHD
AVR - RX-V667
My generator power backup kicks in within 10-15 seconds of utility power failure. So the UPS does not need huge battery backup autonomy and hence preference for UPS with internal battery with optional facility to add external battery if required..
Based on pricing, I may also pitch in for the group buy.
So you may consider the count as 3 for now.

The last time I checked the prices where 14k and 19.5k. Will talk to my dealer on the 9th when I get back to Pune.

Manny9-if it is not disclosed in confidence I dont think it should be an issue
Hi guys,
I would also recommend Liebert (Emerson) online UPS product and i have been using the same for quite some time now. We have frequent and abrupt power failures apart from the variation in voltage which is extremely high (voltage varying from 150V to 275 V sometimes).
So far this UPS has been one of the best upgrade i have had in recent times saving lot of pain by giving desired equipment safety and allowing uninterupting music/movies sessions. The model i use is Liebert GXT-MT + 3 kVA online UPS system.
Please ensure that the fan noise (check the fan dB level across the makes/models while you chose the UPS) is taken care of while loacting the UPS unit. It is best avoided in a AV rack. Hope this helps.

for the cost of a branded offline/lineinteractive ups(like the sua series from apc) you can probably get a local online ups which is a much better solution for protecting the hifi
lineinteractive is not a good idea if you have frequent voltage fluctuations( or generator with unstable frequency), my sua 1000i relays failed twice due to this and now i use a local online ups. sua 1000i replacement unit now being kept idle
yes you cannot keep it on the avrack due to fan noise

How much did you pay for the unit and batteries? which batteries were provided? warranty details?
Thanks for your answer, borg. Can you please indicate which of your above equipment is on the UPS and how many of them are powered on at the same time?
Just received a quote for Emerson GXT MT+ Series 3 KVA UPS. 27,500 + 5% VAT. I am planning to get it early next week.
Does anyone know how much the online UPS's from APC cost? I believe their product codes start with SURT.

Paid 28K inclusive of taxes and duties. Batteries are inbuilt, yes there is also a model to which you can connect external batteries for longer backups, i didn't opt for same, as extended power backup was not an objective but it was safe shut down in case of power failure.
Request all to check the detailed thread started by forum member, ajay124 on the subject for more insight on the online UPS system. Regards.
APC Smart RC 2000 VA (SRC 2000 XLI-CC) was costing Rs, 30,250/= (non negotiated prices in 2010), however, the 3kVA unit (APC Smart-UPS XL 3000VA RM; 3U 230V, Part Number:SUA3000RMXLI3U) will cost more. Please check the latest prices though. Regards.

Awesome! Thanks.
APC vs Emerson.....product wise both the products are at par ...but i believe Emerson gives 1 Yr warranty and APC are with 2Yr warranty....and more importantly APC offers replacement warranty.......
Secondly in my personal opinion APC is best....as i work with APChyeah:hyeah:hyeah:hyeah:
