Hi Mario,
We use APC Back UPS Pro sinewave units for a lot of sensitive equipment including CCD and CMOS cameras, test equipment, and other science-related instruments.
They have an excellent track record and reliability.
Eg BR1500VA and other models.

Good luck.
Colin

Hi all,

We are unfortunately facing many unplanned (random) electricity outages/voltage variations in our Institute (it's a very old building) and our systems (and particularly lasers) don't like it too much... I was wondering if some of you are using UPS units to protect your confocal/2-P systems? If so what type of UPS are you using? All the info you could provide would be most welcome, thanks in advance.

Mario
