Recommended model: 5P series
Eaton is a top multinational power management company, a well-known old UPS manufacturer, and the UPS market size ranks second in the world and first in China. In 2008, Eaton acquired Shante, a leading domestic low-power UPS company, and its influence in China has become more and more huge. However, unlike APC, Eaton does not attach so much importance to small and medium-power UPS products, so it does not have a high degree of attention among individual and home users.
During Schneider's acquisition of APC, Eaton took over the low-power UPS business of Melangerland. Eaton, which combines the technologies of two leading UPS brands, covers a wide range of product lines, including back-up, online interactive and online.
The online interactive 5P series is a representative of Eaton's low-power models, and the functions are quite comprehensive. Power supply quality is the most prominent advantage of the 5P series. The traditional online interactive UPS usually outputs an analog sine wave power supply, which is better than the square wave power supply of most backup UPS, but it is still inferior to the sine wave power supply of the mains. However, Eaton's 5P series outputs pure sine wave power supply, and the power quality is better than that of the occasional fluctuating mains, which can be used as a backup power supply for some sensitive components.
The 5P series can provide power management functions for different devices through the management card, and its socket is not the traditional national standard triangle socket, but the zigzag C13 socket, which requires the purchase of a plug adapter to dock with computers and other equipment. Although it is more troublesome, but this design also has some advantages, through different adapters, 5P series UPS can not only be connected to the national standard plug, but also can be connected to different types of plugs in other countries, as long as the voltage is in a stage, UPS can still operate normally.
The power of the 5P series is 650~1550VA, corresponding to the equipment that can be connected to 420~1100W, and the price is 1200~2800 yuan according to different models. Since the positioning is not biased towards civilian use, it is more recommended to use Eaton's products on the server.
