Does my back-ups 700 have power conditioning?

Hi

I have an APC Back-UPS BX 700 - BX700U-FR that works well for my computer equipment.

I am getting noise from the wall heaters in my little guitar amp. Does this back-ups unit provide power conditioning and would it be appropriate for my amp?

thanks

Nick

Hi Nick,

The BX700U-FR utilizes a series of components to electrically isolate EMI and RFI interference which may be present on the electrical input or in the nearby surrounding area. The BX700U-FR produces a Step-Approximated Sine wave while on inverter, which may not be acceptable to the guitar amp. It is not the device a would recommend for such an application. You may wish to investigate the APC Smart-UPS Line of products for something more suitable to your needs.
