This UPS (Uninterrupted Power System)
has been designed to supply power to
connected equipment in the event of an
electrical blackout. It is also equipped with
built-in surge protection to guard connect-
ed equipment against electrical damage.
When your wall outlet is supplying normal
AC power flow, the UPS provides surge
protection and draws energy to charge its
internal battery. When the AC power flow
becomes abnormal, as in the instance of a
blackout, the UPS will supply power to the
connected equipment immediately, via its
internal battery. Philips offers an entire line
of UPS products to safeguard your home
