Liebert Intros PowerSure PST Offline UPS

Liebert Corp. (Orlando, FL) introduced its new PowerSure PST, an offline uninterruptible power supply (UPS) suited for desktop computer systems that require protection from surges, spikes and brief interruptions in input power. The Liebert PST is available in two sizes: 350VA or 500VA. It features a minimum of three minutes of battery backup at full load, integrated surge protection, and data line protection. In the event an outage exceeds battery capacity, the PowerSure PST provides controlled shutdown through the USB port using the operating system's built-in power management function.

The PowerSure PST features three battery-backed UPS outlets and two surge-only outlets that enable complete protection of most systems and their peripherals; integrated transient voltage suppression system that protects against incoming surges and spikes; data line surge suppression that protects modem, fax, DSL and other communications equipment from surges and spikes; USB communications that utilizes Windows' or Macintosh OS' built-in power management function to provide orderly shutdown if an outage exceeds battery capacity; and audible and visual alarms that alert users to conditions that may lead to shutdown.

The PowerSure PST pricing ranges from $91 to $114, depending on model.
