The UPS offers good performance under moderate to heavy loads. It can maintain connected devices through short power cuts, protecting data and preventing damage to hardware from voltage spikes. The battery performance depends heavily on load—the more devices and the more power drawn, the shorter backup time. The voltage regulation (AVR) helps prolong battery life by reducing battery use when the input voltage is within acceptable range.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What devices can the Unomat UPS 3000VA support?
It can support a typical desktop setup (computer + monitor), networking gear (router, modem), small servers, possibly printers. It depends on total power draw not exceeding the UPS wattage capacity.
How long will the backup last during an outage?
Backup time depends on load. Under heavy load, it may last for a few minutes; under lighter load, longer. Exact time varies by how many watts the connected devices draw.
Does it need maintenance?
Very little. Mainly ensure batteries are charged, check connections, avoid excessive temperatures. Battery replacement will be needed over years.
Is the output waveform pure sine wave?
Not necessarily. Many UPS units at this price point are simulated sine or modified sine waves. If you need pure sine, confirm with the retailer.
What should I check before buying?
Check warranty, whether price includes battery or if battery is external, size/weight, output sockets, whether the UPS has AVR and surge protection, and realistic capacity vs your power needs.
Conclusion
The Unomat UPS 3000VA provides solid value for anyone in Kenya needing dependable backup power, especially where outages and voltage fluctuations are common. With estimated cost around KSh 28,000‑32,000, it brings protection for essential electronics, networking equipment, and office devices.
