Uninterruptible Power Supply APC BVX1600LI Line-Interactive 1.6 kVA 900 W 6 AC outlets Black

APC BVX1600LI Line-Interactive UPS offers 1.6 kVA capacity and 900 W output in a compact form factor to protect small servers, network equipment and workstations from power interruptions and surges. The unit includes six C14 AC outlets and a 1.2 m power cable, provides battery backup and surge protection, and features Boost Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) to correct low voltages without discharging the battery. With a battery recharge time of about 6 hours and safety approvals to CB, CE and EN/IEC 62040 standards, this UPS delivers mains-failure protection, audible alarms and LED status indicators in a slim, install-friendly design.

Advantages

The BVX1600LI provides uninterrupted runtime for critical low-power devices and network gateway equipment, combining surge-protected and battery-backed outlets to keep hardware and data safe during outages and spikes. Automatic Voltage Regulation helps preserve battery life by correcting undervoltage conditions, while intelligent battery management and battery failure notification support longer service life and proactive maintenance. The unit’s transformer-spaced outlets allow large adapters to be used without blocking neighbouring sockets, and the cold-start capability permits temporary operation from the battery when utility power is unavailable.

How to use

Place the UPS in a stable, ventilated location and connect the UPS to mains power using the supplied 1.2 m power cable to charge the internal battery before use. Plug protected devices into the C14 outlets designated for battery backup and surge protection. Configure the load to ensure total power draw does not exceed the 900 W rating. During normal operation the AVR will correct low voltages; in the event of mains failure the unit will switch to battery power automatically and provide audible and LED indications of status. Follow manufacturer guidance for initial charge cycle and periodic testing to ensure reliable operation.

Usage recommendations

For optimal reliability, allow the battery to fully charge after installation and perform regular battery tests. Avoid placing the UPS in direct sunlight or in locations with elevated temperature or humidity. Distribute high-current loads across outlets to prevent overload and reserve capacity for critical devices. Replace batteries according to the manufacturer’s service life guidelines or when the battery failure notification indicates deterioration.
