hi. I have a ULS versalaser VL300 50 watt machine. I live in the philippines with lots and lots of black outs and unstable power. the markings on the back says:
220V 50/60 Hz 5A
so by calculating it (correct me if I'm wrong) I would need a UPS that can handle 1100 VA (220v * 5A=1100VA). I have installed a 1400VA UPS. I need this so if there is a sudden black out we can stop the machine properly and power off instead of the machine just losing power (which I'm worried will damage the circuitry etc). Just recently we had a black out and machine went off. the 1400VA UPS obviously cannot handle it. would a 5000VA UPS be enough to keep machine going and power off the right way? how do I get the actual need for my machine?
