Every AV system faces the threat of power anomalies, outages, and unexpected downtime. Integrating an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) is non-negotiable for protecting sensitive equipment and keeping systems online, but finding the right balance can be tricky. Choose a unit that is too small, and you risk a system crash during a blackout. Choose one that is too large, and you waste valuable budget on unnecessary capacity.

Middle Atlantic’s downloadable UPS runtime calculator takes the guesswork out of system design. Operating as both a live spec tool and a repeatable design reference, it lets you map out exact backup needs in seconds:

2. Input your metrics: Enter your total expected power draw (in watts) and your target minimum runtime.

3. Get your part numbers: The tool instantly matches your needs with the correct Middle Atlantic UPS part numbers, complete with direct links to full product specs.
