CyberPower BR1200ELCD

The CyberPower BR1200ELCD Line-Interactive UPS provides effective protection for your electronics during a power outage, with an apparent power of 1200VA and a real power of 720W. At full load, it supplies power for 2.5 minutes, and at half load, for 8.5 minutes. The tower design effectively maintains a stable power supply to connected devices, protecting them from damage. It efficiently reduces electricity consumption and prevents the loss of unsaved work on desktop computers and network components. The front panel features a clear LCD status display that shows key operating parameters in real time. This gives you an instant overview of the power status, battery charge level, current load, and any error messages. The information display is complemented by LED indicators for a quick visual check of the operating modes.

Topology and stable performance

This CyberPower BR1200ELCD Line-Interactive UPS delivers a real power of 720W and an apparent power of 1200VA. The system uses GreenPower UPS technology to increase operational efficiency and reduce electricity consumption. At 100% load, the backup time is 2.5 minutes, while at 50% load it is 8.5 minutes. The output voltage is 230V with a deviation of ±10%. The entire backup process is seamless, protecting sensitive equipment from sudden shutdowns.

Automatic voltage regulation and battery

The integrated Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) system corrects fluctuations in the grid without needing to switch to battery power. The device can handle both undervoltage and overvoltage in the range of 167V to 295V. This conserves battery capacity and extends its overall lifespan in demanding operating conditions. Inside, it contains a user-replaceable battery, which should only be replaced by a qualified person. The typical charging time for a depleted battery is 8 hours. The device supports a cold start function, which lets you turn on connected appliances directly from the battery even when the mains power is completely out.

Surge protection, filtering and management

The UPS includes integrated surge protection that can absorb a surge energy of up to 150J. It also features a built-in EMI and RFI filter to suppress electromagnetic and high-frequency interference. The safety features are complemented by an internal circuit breaker and electronic current limiting for overload protection, which increases the overall operational stability of connected electronics at home or in the office. For advanced management and monitoring, it uses the recommended PowerPanel Personal software. The program allows you to set up an automatic safe shutdown of the operating system during a prolonged power outage. Communication with the computer is handled by a USB port compatible with the HID interface, which does not require complex driver installation and simplifies integration into common systems.

Connectivity and sockets

The UPS connects to the mains via a 1.5m long cable with a Schuko plug. It offers a total of 8 Schuko sockets on the output, divided into two groups. The first 4 sockets provide full battery backup with surge protection, while the remaining 4 sockets offer surge protection only. The features are rounded out by one USB-A charging port, one USB-C charging port with a total output of 5V / 2.1A, and one USB-B port for PC communication and UPS management. For communication line protection, it offers combined RJ-11 and RJ-45 ports.
