    Hello,

    I was hoping someone could help me with choosing an adequate UPS for my CNC machine.


    I have the High Torque Nemas 23 steppers, 24V power supply, Black Box motion control and the

    IOT Switching Relay Power Strip.

    I mainly need the UPS to keep my machine running a job without missing steps in the event of a power bump or short power outage (1-2 minutes).

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Router +- 800w
    Rest of machine, around 200w
    Computer approx 500w
    So you need a 2kw load capable UPS.

    I run a 3.2kw hybrid inverter and 2x105ah 12v batteries (as a office UPS, keeps me going through 2-3hour load shedding sessions) which works great. Office type UPSs wont like the Router at all (large inductive load) - you probably want a Pure sine wave model for that
