Maximum backup times for your most critical applications
Pulsar ellipse premium offers special functions providing critical applications with longer backup times.
Pulsar ellipse premium 500
Some peripherals (printers, scanners) simply require surge protection. Connect them to the special outlet on the Pulsar ellipse premium 500 for continuous surge protection, without consuming precious battery power during an outage.

Using the programmable PowerShare outlets, you can assign maximum backup time to the most critical applications. This operation is extremely simple using the Personal Solution-Pac power management software. Your UPS can now deliver longer backup times to critical loads, at no extra cost! 2. As a result, maximum backup time is available for the other outlets supplying the critical loads. 1. This outlet can be automatically shut down after a few minutes on battery power. This reduces the load on the UPS.
Optimum price/performance ratio
Pulsar ellipse premium UPSs use line-interactive technology to guarantee effective protection for your workstations and servers, even in highly disturbed electrical environments.
