[ STANDBY / OFFLINE UPS // IDENTIFIED MODEL ]
CyberPower SL700U
CyberPower North American standby UPS: 700 VA / 370 W. Eight NEMA 5-15R outlets: five battery-backup + surge-protected and three surge-only. Separate USB-A charging ports are not included in the NEMA outlet count. 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 | 700 VA apparent-power limit / 370 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 output; standby/offline topology with simulated-sine-wave battery output. Waveform and transfer tolerances are not inferred across revisions; match the manufacturer specification to the exact suffix. |
| Receptacles / load allocation | Eight NEMA 5-15R outlets: five battery-backup + surge-protected and three surge-only. Separate USB-A charging ports are not included in the NEMA outlet count. 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; follow the SL700U manual for approved replacement/service and battery recycling. Do not assume hot-swap. |
| Runtime limits / test conditions | Use the SL700U manufacturer runtime chart at the measured load; runtime is load- and battery-condition-dependent and is not guaranteed by the VA/W rating. 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 | Two USB-A charging ports (2.4 A shared) plus a separate USB data/communications port for UPS monitoring/shutdown; no native network interface. Host monitoring/shutdown is supported with CyberPower PowerPanel Personal; check current OS support and the exact manual. USB-A charging is not the data port. |
| 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.
