Mercury Envy Rackmount & Tower Convertible 1.5KVA/1350W Description

Ensure uninterrupted power and safeguard your valuable electronic equipment with the Mercury Envy Rackmount & Tower Convertible 1.5KVA/1350W UPS. This sophisticated Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) is designed to provide reliable power backup and advanced protection against a wide array of power disturbances, making it an indispensable asset for both professional and high-end personal use.

With a substantial 1.5KVA (1500VA) capacity and 1350W (1.35KW) active power, the Mercury Envy UPS offers ample power for small to medium-sized IT loads, including:

• Servers and workstations
• Network switches, routers, and firewalls
• Telecommunication equipment
• Security systems (CCTV, access control)
• Point-of-sale (POS) systems
• Sensitive home electronics and entertainment systems

Mercury Envy Rackmount & Tower Convertible 1.5KVA/1350W Benefits:

• Flexible Rackmount & Tower Convertible Design: This is a standout feature, allowing the UPS to be deployed either horizontally in a standard 19-inch server rack (using appropriate rail kits, often optional) or vertically as a standalone tower unit. This versatility makes it perfect for diverse environments, from dedicated server rooms and data cabinets to office floors and home setups.
• Line-Interactive Topology with Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR): The Envy series utilizes advanced line-interactive technology. This means it actively monitors incoming utility power and, through its Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) function, corrects minor voltage fluctuations (sags and surges) without switching to battery power. This feature preserves battery life, ensuring it’s available for actual power outages.
• Pure Sine Wave Output (0.9 Power Factor): Delivers a high-quality pure sine wave output, crucial for sensitive electronic equipment that can be damaged by the stepped square wave output of cheaper UPS models. The 0.9 power factor (1350W / 1500VA) indicates high efficiency, allowing you to maximize the usable power from your UPS’s VA rating.
• Fast Transfer Time: With a typical transfer time of less than 6ms, the switch from utility power to battery power is virtually imperceptible to most connected devices, ensuring continuous operation.
• Comprehensive Power Protection: Shields your equipment from common power issues including power failures, sags, surges, undervoltage, overvoltage, overloads, and short circuits.
• Intelligent Battery Management: Equipped with 4 x 12V / 9Ah sealed lead-acid batteries, the UPS features smart battery charging, automatic self-test, and overcharge/discharge protection to extend battery lifespan and maintain optimal performance.
• User-Friendly LCD Display: A clear LCD panel provides real-time status updates on input/output voltage, battery capacity, load level, and various operating modes, simplifying monitoring and management.
• Versatile Communication Interfaces: Includes USB and RS232 communication ports for local monitoring via management software. An optional SNMP card slot allows for advanced remote monitoring and integration into network management systems.
• Network/Fax/Modem Surge Protection: Built-in protection for data lines, safeguarding your network and communication equipment from electrical surges that can travel through network cables.
• Cold Start Function: Enables the UPS to be powered on using only battery power, even if there is no utility input, useful for initial system startups in blackout conditions.
• Automatic Restart: Automatically restarts connected equipment when utility power returns, ensuring quick recovery of services after an outage.

The Mercury Envy 1.5KVA/1350W UPS stands as a smart investment for anyone seeking dependable, flexible, and clean power protection for their critical electronic assets.

Mercury Envy Rackmount & Tower Convertible 1.5KVA/1350W FAQs

Q1: What does “Rackmount & Tower Convertible” mean for this UPS? A1: This feature allows you to install the UPS in two ways: either horizontally in a standard 19-inch server rack (like those found in data centers or server closets) or vertically as a freestanding “tower” unit, suitable for an office desk or floor. This provides great flexibility for different deployment environments.

Q2: Is the Mercury Envy 1.5KVA an Online UPS or Line-Interactive? A2: The Mercury Envy 1.5KVA is a Line-Interactive UPS. While it provides excellent protection with its Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) and pure sine wave output, it differs from a true “Online Double-Conversion” UPS which provides continuous power regeneration. For most servers and networking gear, a high-quality line-interactive UPS like the Envy series is sufficient.

Q3: What kind of equipment can I connect to this 1.5KVA/1350W UPS? A3: This UPS is well-suited for a range of critical electronics including small to medium-sized servers, network switches, routers, modems, workstations, high-end desktop computers, CCTV systems, and other sensitive office or home electronics that require clean, stable power and reliable backup.

Q4: How long will this UPS provide power during an outage? A4: The backup time for the Mercury Envy 1.5KVA/1350W UPS with its internal batteries is approximately 10-20 minutes, depending on the connected load. A half-load (e.g., 675W) will provide a longer runtime than a full load (1350W). For extended backup, models supporting external battery packs may be available, or a higher capacity UPS would be needed.

Q5: What is Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR), and why is it important? A5: AVR is a feature that allows the UPS to automatically correct minor fluctuations in the incoming utility voltage (both sags and surges) without having to switch to battery power. This protects your devices from harmful voltage inconsistencies and prolongs the life of the UPS batteries by reducing unnecessary battery cycling.

Q6: Can I monitor this UPS remotely? A6: Yes, the Mercury Envy 1.5KVA UPS comes with USB and RS232 communication ports for local monitoring software. Additionally, it has a slot for an optional SNMP card, which allows for advanced remote monitoring and management over a network, integrating with popular network management systems.
