BOSTON, MA, February 11,1992 -- Emerson Computer Power has unveiled a new full featured, on-line uninterruptible power supply (UPS) for use with single file server LANs such as those based on 386 or 486 PCs. It is being demonstrated at the Emerson booth (#1511) here at NetWorld. "Rated at 750 VA, the AccuPower GOLD AU750 offers all the features of our popular AU1000 and AU1500 in a size that's right for small file servers that need continuous access to clean sinewave power protection," according to Steve Workman, product manager. Priced at $1249, the AU760 is a cost-effective choice for those users. It is immediately available. The new AU750 can be used in either local or remote applications. If the UPS is not adjacent to the system operators, status reports are available on their monitors via the AU750's RS-232 serial communication port and Emerson's new AccuMon Power Surveillance Software. This feature allows the workstation operator to read input and output voltage, temperature, battery load, battery capacity, etc, on a highly graphic screen, and it permits data logging. It also reports when power has failed and the system is running on battery. The UPS is also equipped with audible and visual indicators to keep the local operator constantly informed about the unit's status. For example, one LED bar display reports percentage load and a second indicates remaining battery capacity. A light on the front panel and an audible alarm warn when the unit is operating on battery or when a fault condition is present. A battery test can be conducted in place or remotely. The AccuPower GOLD AU750 is designed with state of the art components that improve efficiency and reliability while making the unit smaller, lighter, quieter and more convenient than earlier on-line units. It includes a power factor correction circuit to minimize the amount of noise the UPS reflects back into the utility line and to let the UPS use utility power more efficiently. The 750 VA unit will support two IBM PS/2 Model 80s for more than 10 minutes. To minimize noise, its dual speed fan operates on low (less than 40 db) unless the UPS is fully loaded. The AccuPower GOLD AU750 weighs only 36 pounds and is a compact 9-5/8 x 7 x 20-1/4 inches, giving it one of the smallest footprints in the industry. It is equipped with four NEMA outlets on the rear for plugging in computer, monitor and peripherals. Emerson Computer Power is the world's largest manufacturer of power protection systems for computing applications ranging from single user PCs and local area networks to minicomputers and mainframe systems. The company has major manufacturing centers in Ohio, California, Mexico, England, Malaysia and Italy.
