[ STANDBY / OFFLINE UPS // IDENTIFIED MODEL ]
CyberPower EC850LCD
CyberPower North American standby UPS: 850 VA / 510 W. Twelve NEMA 5-15R outlets: six battery-backup + surge-protected and six surge-only; ECO-controlled outlets are model-specific and must be mapped from the EC850LCD guide. This record is limited to the named model and regional variant; confirm the complete unit label and matching manufacturer documentation.
ARCHIVAL IDENTIFICATION: Record full SKU/suffix, input and output labels, serial/date code, hardware revision, battery part/age, condition, accessories and the manual revision used. Similar model names do not establish electrical equivalence.
Exact model specifications
| Manufacturer / catalog topology | CyberPower; standby (offline) UPS. The inverter normally remains out of the utility path and assumes the load after a transfer event; it is not line-interactive AVR or online double-conversion. |
|---|---|
| Capacity / regional input | 850 VA apparent-power limit / 510 W real-power limit; North American 120 V AC nominal input and 60 Hz service. Check the full nameplate for accepted input range and regional approval; VA and W limits both matter. |
| Output / waveform | 120 V AC North American standby/offline UPS; simulated-sine-wave battery output. ECO function does not change the maximum 510 W load rating. Waveform and transfer tolerances are not inferred across revisions; match the manufacturer specification to the exact suffix. |
| Receptacles / load allocation | Twelve NEMA 5-15R outlets: six battery-backup + surge-protected and six surge-only; ECO-controlled outlets are model-specific and must be mapped from the EC850LCD guide. Keep critical equipment on the battery-backed group. Never exceed the individual receptacle, total VA or total watt limit; USB charging sockets, if any, are not AC outlets. |
| Battery / replacement / hot-swap | Internal sealed lead-acid battery; use only the model-approved replacement/service procedure and follow the battery recycling instructions. Do not assume hot-swap. |
| Runtime limits / test conditions | Use the EC850LCD manufacturer runtime data at the measured watt load. The 850 VA / 510 W rating is not a time estimate; actual runtime depends on battery age, charge, temperature and load. Runtime tests should record load watts, battery age/health, charge state, room temperature and test date; do not extrapolate from an empty-unit self-test. |
| Interface / host compatibility | Front LCD and USB host data connection for monitoring/shutdown software; no native network-management capability is specified. CyberPower PowerPanel Personal software supports host monitoring; confirm its current OS/software compatibility and the EC850LCD manual. USB data is not a promise of compatibility with every host or OS. |
| Protection / scope | Surge protection and battery backup apply only to the receptacles and protection paths labeled for this model. The UPS does not correct an unsafe branch circuit, provide a ground where none exists, or guarantee protection from every transient. |
Safety, service & limits
- Use only on the voltage, frequency and grounded supply shown on the unit label; never defeat grounding, daisy-chain UPS outputs, or connect a generator/alternate source contrary to the matching manual.
- Do not connect laser printers, heaters, motors or other high-inrush loads unless the manufacturer explicitly permits them and the continuous and surge limits are satisfied.
- Do not open an energized enclosure or service an internal battery outside the manual’s procedure. Lead-acid batteries can deliver high fault current and may contain corrosive electrolyte; avoid short circuits and dispose/recycle under local rules.
- Remove damaged units from service if the case, cord, plug, grounding, receptacle, battery or indicators show heat, swelling, leakage, cracking, odor, corrosion or other faults. Follow the manufacturer warnings for shutdown and isolation.
- Battery backup is finite and is not a substitute for safe shutdown, a properly rated circuit, electrical code compliance, or manufacturer instructions. Re-check the outlet map, firmware/software support and nameplate before deployment.
