Hikvision DS-UPS600

600VA / 360W Uninterruptible Power Supply

The Hikvision DS-UPS600 is a compact and reliable uninterruptible power supply (UPS) designed to provide stable backup power for surveillance systems, networking devices, and other critical electronics. With a capacity of 600 VA / 360 W, this UPS ensures uninterrupted operation during power outages, voltage fluctuations, or surges, protecting sensitive equipment from damage and downtime. Its robust design, multiple safety features, and user-friendly indicators make it an essential component for both home and office environments.

Power Performance

The DS-UPS600 delivers a rated capacity of 600 VA / 360 W, ideal for powering devices such as CCTV cameras, DVR/NVR systems, routers, computers, and small office equipment. It provides a steady output voltage of 210 VAC to 235 VAC, ensuring connected devices continue to operate smoothly even during unstable power conditions.

Thanks to its ≤ 10 ms transfer time, the UPS instantly switches to battery mode during an outage, ensuring that connected devices experience no interruption or reboot. Its PWM waveform provides clean and stable power output suitable for sensitive electronic devices.

The UPS automatically adjusts to 50/60 Hz input and output frequency, ensuring compatibility across different regions without manual configuration.

Input and Output Flexibility

The DS-UPS600 is designed to be versatile, supporting multiple input plug types including:

• AU Type I
• Type H
• Type B (NEMA 5-15)
• Type L (10A)
• UK Type G
• Schuko (European standard)

This wide compatibility makes the UPS adaptable for various international power setups.

For output, the unit provides multiple outlet types such as AU Type I, Type H, Universal outlets, NEMA 5-15, and Type L (10/16A). The UPS comes with:

• 4 battery backup outlets – ensuring devices remain powered during outages
• 2 bypass outlets – for non-critical devices that do not require backup power

This thoughtful design allows users to prioritize which devices receive backup support while maintaining flexibility for auxiliary connections.

Battery Backup and Runtime

The UPS is equipped with a 12 V/7 Ah sealed lead-acid battery, optimized for durability and reliability. It recharges within 4–6 hours to 90% capacity, ensuring it is ready for the next power event in a short period.

Typical Backup Times:

• At 60 W load: ~35 minutes
• At 100 W load: ~20 minutes
• At 200 W load: ~3 minutes

These runtimes provide ample time to save work, shut down systems safely, or maintain essential surveillance operations during short outages.

Safety and Protection

The Hikvision DS-UPS600 incorporates comprehensive protection features to safeguard both the UPS and connected devices:

• Surge Protection – Shields against sudden voltage spikes caused by lightning or unstable grid supply.
• Overload Protection – Prevents damage when the connected load exceeds rated capacity.
• Overcharge Protection – Stops charging when the battery reaches full capacity, extending battery life.
• Discharge Protection – Prevents deep discharge, ensuring long-term battery reliability.

These protections make the UPS highly dependable in demanding environments.

Indicators and Alarms

The DS-UPS600 uses a LED indicator system to display its working status clearly:

• AC Mode (Normal Power): Solid green
• Charging Mode (Battery/DC Mode): Solid red
• Overloading Mode: Flashing yellow

The UPS also includes audible alarms to alert users in various situations:

• Charging Mode (Battery use): Beeps every 8 seconds
• Low Battery: Beeps every 1 second
• Overload Condition: Beeps every 0.5 seconds
• Fault Condition: Continuous alarm

This combination of visual and audible alerts ensures users are always aware of the UPS status and can respond promptly when action is required.

Design and Build

Compact and portable, the DS-UPS600 measures 274 mm × 95 mm × 139 mm (10.79″ × 3.74″ × 5.47″) and weighs only 4.2 kg (9.26 lb). Its small footprint makes it ideal for placement under desks, on shelves, or alongside other networking equipment. Despite its size, the UPS features a solid build that guarantees long-term durability.

The operating conditions are tailored for real-world use, functioning in environments with 0 °C to 40 °C (32 °F to 104 °F) temperatures and 30% to 90% humidity (non-condensing). This allows for flexible deployment across home, office, and security system environments.

Conclusion

The Hikvision DS-UPS600 is a dependable, compact, and efficient UPS solution designed to provide stable backup power for surveillance systems, networking equipment, and small electronics. Its wide range of input/output plug compatibility, fast transfer time, smart battery management, and robust protective features make it a versatile choice for both residential and commercial applications. With clear LED indicators, audible alarms, and strong runtime performance, it ensures uninterrupted operation of critical devices, protecting against unexpected power failures and voltage fluctuations.

For users seeking a cost-effective, easy-to-install, and reliable backup power solution, the Hikvision DS-UPS600 stands out as an excellent choice.
