CyberPower UPS turns out to use adhesive that causes fire over time

If the power supply is interrupted due to a sudden power outage, etc., there is a possibility that the precision equipment such as PCs will be seriously damaged. An uninterruptible power supply (UPS) is used. However, it turned out that the UPS produced by

CyberPower , a major UPS company, uses 'an adhesive that has conductivity due to aging and has a risk of causing a fire', which has become a big topic.

If you connect the UPS between the power supply and the device, the power supply from the UPS will start instantly when the power supply from the power supply is cut off, and you will have time to safely turn off the power supply of the device. For this reason, UPSs are used in sites where data may be lost due to sudden power loss such as servers, and UPSs on the market are required to have high reliability.

However, in the movie posted on YouTube in 2021, the UPS ' CP1500PFCLCD ' and ' CP1350PFCLCD ' made by CyberPower use an adhesive that corrodes due to aging and has conductivity, which may cause a fire. Was reported.

In addition, on July 1, 2022, a movie was posted on the overseas bulletin board Reddit, 'The moment the' CP1500PFCLCD 'is connected to the power supply, the fire burns inside.'


In these movies, there are comments that the adhesive was corroded inside the CyberPower that I own, and that there was a similar accident that smoke was raised in the UPS made by APC . .. UPSs that have been reported to have adhesive corrosion were also available in Japan, so it seems good to check regularly for problems when operating UPSs.
