A60 Standby UPS – Compact Battery Backup (550–850 VA, 120V)

The A60 Series is a compact standby UPS designed for device-level power protection in environments where cost, simplicity, and ease of deployment are primary considerations.

It provides battery backup during outages to support safe shutdown of connected equipment, while maintaining a small footprint suitable for desktop, wall-mounted, or field-installed applications.

Key Specifications

• 550 / 850 VA
• 120V single phase
• Standby UPS topology
• Compact desktop form factor
• VRLA battery system

Device-Level Power Protection

A60 is designed for localized protection at the individual device level rather than at the rack or infrastructure level.

It is typically deployed directly alongside equipment to provide basic outage protection without requiring centralized UPS systems or rack integration.

This approach enables simple and consistent protection across distributed environments.

Where A60 Fits in Power Architecture

A60 operates as the entry-tier UPS platform within distributed infrastructure.

Within the Xtreme Power architecture:

• Device-level UPS → A60 (this platform)
• Enhanced entry → S71 (line-interactive with AVR)
• Rack-level → P80 (line-interactive)
• Runtime-focused → P91 (online)
• High-density → J90 (lithium)

A60 vs Line-Interactive and Online UPS

A60 is designed for environments where the primary risk is short-duration power outages and utility power is generally stable.

Standby topology provides battery backup only during outages, without continuous voltage regulation.

Line-interactive systems such as S71 add voltage regulation (AVR), while online UPS platforms provide continuous conditioned power for more sensitive or critical loads.

Replace APC / Eaton Entry-Level UPS

A60 is commonly deployed as a replacement for entry-level UPS systems including:

• APC Back-UPS series
• Eaton standby UPS platforms
• CyberPower desktop UPS systems

It provides a consistent, TAA-compliant platform for distributed deployments requiring simple and economical battery backup.

Simple Deployment and Installation

A60 supports flexible installation across a wide range of environments without requiring specialized infrastructure.

It can be deployed on a desktop, mounted to a wall, or installed on the floor, making it suitable for retail, office, and field-installed systems.

Typical Applications

A60 is deployed across distributed environments including retail POS systems, kiosks, desktop workstations, communications equipment, and security systems.

It is particularly well suited for applications requiring basic outage protection and safe shutdown capability.

Capacity Guidance

Capacity selection is based on connected load:

• 550 VA → POS systems, routers, small electronics
• 850 VA → desktops, kiosks, communications equipment

Typical loads range from 75W to 400W.

A60 is designed for short-duration ride-through and controlled shutdown rather than extended runtime.
