SMT750i device power consumption

Anonymous user · ‎2021-06-28

Hi,

I've been looking and looking to find information about how I'm able to view the power consumption by devices connected to my SMT750i.

I can't seem to find any information regarding the matter.

I have installed Powerchute, but either I'm missing something or the information I'm looking for isn't displayed.

Any idea's as to where I can find the information I'm looking for?

Thanks in advance,

Johan

No, the power capacity is the same.

In my case for example, all the UPS are set to 230V output and our nominal mains is 240V (often up north of 250). That means the current varies, but the power always remains the same.

Hi,

The UPS will not report the power consumption of individual outlets to PowerChute however you can see the current load, VA and Amperage usage in the PowerChute status page.

You can also monitor the energy cost using the Energy Reporting and Energy Settings.

Help with Energy Reporting and Energy Settings will be found in the PowerChute help files.

Hi Bill,

Probably a dumb question, but am I correct in assuming the UPS Load would be what's currently being used from the UPS by the connected device(s)?
Since that's what I'm asking about, I need to know the total power consumption by connected device(s), so that I can verify if the battery still lasts as long as it should.

[EDIT]

I'm wondering if the Output power capacity is any different if the UPS is running on battery or when connected to an outlet.
Can you shed some light on the matter?
