Aggregated specification data identifies the BR1500MS2 as a pro-grade line-interactive UPS with a 900W capacity. Its primary technical distinction is the pure sine wave inverter, which ensures waveform signal integrity that mimics utility power. This prevents electrical resonance in AV receivers and maintains compatibility with Active PFC power supplies found in modern gaming rigs and workstation arrays. Performance metrics demonstrate the effectiveness of its Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) in stabilizing sags and swells without depleting the lead-acid battery cartridge.
Material analysis confirms the use of the APCRBC163 battery cartridge, which is user-replaceable to maintain system uptime over several years. The unit includes a high-visibility LCD for monitoring wattage load and battery status in real-time. Forensic audit of the power delivery system shows a cooling fan that activates during battery mode and high-load AVR cycles. For data-link communication, the unit utilizes a dedicated rear port for automated system hibernation via the provided RJ45-to-USB cable.
- Functional features: Pure sine wave output, AVR (Automatic Voltage Regulation), 10 NEMA 5-15R outlets.
- Diagnostic tools: LCD telemetry (Wattage, Runtime, Battery Health), Audible alarms.
- Power delivery: 900W maximum load, 1500VA rating.
Technical documentation indicates that while the front USB ports provide convenience for mobile devices, critical software-level monitoring is handled exclusively through the rear data interface. The unit's weight and footprint are consistent with high-capacity transformer-based designs using traditional lead-acid chemistry.
In scenarios where space constraints take precedence over pure sine wave requirements, the APC BE425M offers a compact standby alternative for networking peripherals.
This unit represents the professional tier within the uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) hardware classification.
