The APC Easy UPS 2200VA is in stock at Mascom International, priced at KSh 32,000, brand new and sealed, with a 2200VA rating and 1200W of real output. APC sells it under the model code BV2200I-MSX, and it uses line-interactive regulation with AVR to steady the incoming supply before it reaches your equipment. The APC Easy UPS 2200VA carries more than three times the watt capacity of our 650VA model, which lets one unit protect a whole cluster of devices. View the APC Easy UPS 2200VA at our shop in Old Mutual Building, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Built for doctors' clinics, accounting firms, NGO field offices and small business owners across Kenya, the APC Easy UPS 2200VA covers loads that defeat smaller units. Picture two desktops with monitors, a network switch, a router and a CCTV recorder sharing one supply in an Upper Hill or Kilimani office. When the lights go out, patient records, payroll files and camera footage stay safe while staff save and shut down in order. Mombasa and Kisumu businesses dealing with frequent evening voltage drops gain steady, corrected power for every connected device.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that suggest buying several small UPS boxes for an office, Mascom International can size one APC Easy UPS 2200VA to cover the whole desk cluster. One unit means one battery to monitor, one warranty to track and fewer power strips under the desks. Buyers throughout Kenya report that consolidating onto a single larger UPS makes outages calmer for the whole team. Bring a list of your equipment to our store, and we will confirm the load before you buy, or order through WhatsApp with payment on arrival.
Common Questions About the APC Easy UPS 2200VA
How much does the APC Easy UPS 2200VA cost in Kenya?
The APC Easy UPS 2200VA is KSh 32,000 brand new and sealed at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD. The price covers the fitted battery, a 24-month warranty and pay-on-arrival delivery across all 47 counties. It sits KSh 19,000 above the 800VA model and adds 750W of output. Per watt it costs about KSh 27, close to our 650VA model, so the larger unit costs no more per watt delivered. Firms buying several units for branch offices can ask for a written quotation by email.
Can the APC Easy UPS 2200VA run a CCTV system and DVR?
Yes, the APC Easy UPS 2200VA handles a typical DVR or NVR with several cameras, since that load usually sits well inside its 1200W rating. Keeping the recorder powered matters because break-ins often happen during blackouts, exactly when an unprotected system goes dark. Add the recorder, the camera power supply and the monitor watts together before connecting. Shops, schools and apartment blocks in Nairobi commonly pair CCTV with a UPS of this size. Plug the recorder in first, then the cameras, so the footage keeps saving even if you later add more devices.
How many office workstations will the APC Easy UPS 2200VA support?
The APC Easy UPS 2200VA usually supports two or three standard office desktops with LED monitors, plus the router and switch, within its 1200W limit. The exact count depends on each machine's power draw, so read the watt rating on every label and keep the total near 960W, about 80% of capacity. Workstations with large graphics cards draw much more. Share your equipment list with Mascom International on WhatsApp and our staff will check the total for you.
APC Easy UPS 2200VA or Mercury Maverick 2000VA, which suits a small office?
Both are stocked at Mascom International and target the same multi-device office load. The APC Easy UPS 2200VA has a slightly higher VA rating, a 1200W output figure, APC's published 170V to 280V input window and universal sockets throughout. The Mercury Maverick 2000VA is a well-known name among Kenyan installers, and we can confirm its current price and output on WhatsApp. Pick APC when documented specifications matter for an audit or tender, and Mercury when matching existing installed units.
Will the APC Easy UPS 2200VA help with Kenya Power voltage problems?
The APC Easy UPS 2200VA corrects low and high voltage through automatic voltage regulation, holding output close to 230V for everything plugged in. That helps in buildings where lifts, pumps or welding workshops nearby pull the supply down several times a day. Small swings are fixed without using the battery, which saves charge for genuine KPLC blackouts. Larger failures trigger a switch to battery, while connected equipment keeps running through the change. Spikes when power returns after an outage are also damped before they reach the computers and recorder behind it.
Who should buy the APC Easy UPS 2200VA and who should skip it?
The APC Easy UPS 2200VA fits offices, clinics, pharmacies and studios running several computers, a server or CCTV from one protected supply. It also suits a large home setup with a desktop, network gear, a TV and a decoder running together. Skip it if you only protect a single computer or a router, because the 650VA or 800VA model costs far less for that job. Skip it for laser printers, fridges and air conditioners, which need different protection altogether.
Can I use the APC Easy UPS 2200VA with a home gaming PC?
A gaming PC with a mid-range graphics card plus a monitor and console usually fits within the 1200W rating of the APC Easy UPS 2200VA. That covers the moment a blackout hits during an online match or a large game download. Check your power supply's real draw under load, not just its label, since gaming rigs vary widely. The stepped sine-wave output suits most modern computer power supplies; ask our team if your PSU maker recommends pure sine wave.
Where should I place the APC Easy UPS 2200VA in an office?
Put the APC Easy UPS 2200VA on a dry, level floor in a cool, ventilated spot, close to the devices it powers. Keep it away from windows facing direct sun, since heat shortens battery life in Kenyan offices with tin roofs or no air conditioning. Leave space around the vents and avoid corners where cleaners mop daily. Running cords through a tidy cable path also prevents staff from tripping over them and unplugging the server during an outage.
Technical Specifications
Power Capacity
- 2200VA and 1200W rating — supports two or three office desktops, network equipment and a recorder from one unit.
- Model code BV2200I-MSX — APC's exact part number, used on the box, the warranty record and procurement paperwork.
- Line-interactive topology — corrects voltage continuously in normal use and switches to battery only when mains supply fails.
- 230V output at 50/60Hz — the standard supply that office computers, screens and network gear are built to accept.
- Stepped approximation to a sine wave on battery — suits most computer power supplies; check high-end PSUs with our team.
Voltage Regulation and Protection
- Automatic voltage regulation — corrects sags and surges on mains power so the battery stays charged for real outages.
- Input range of 170V to 280V, per APC's Easy UPS family figures — voltage swings inside that band are corrected, not passed through.
- Typical transfer time in the 6-millisecond range for this family — fast enough for desktops and servers to stay running.
- Overload alarm — a continuous tone warns staff when total connected load goes above the 1200W rating.
- Auto-sensing input frequency — detects 50 or 60Hz automatically, so setup needs no switches or configuration.
Battery and Backup
- Internal sealed lead-acid batteries — maintenance-free and pre-fitted, needing only a full first charge before use.
- Expected battery life of three to five years across the Easy UPS family — heat and deep discharges shorten that span.
- Runtime set by load — APC publishes no fixed minutes, so a lighter office load lasts longer on battery.
- On-battery alarm — sounds the moment mains power fails, a cue for staff to begin saving open work.
- Low-battery alarm — a distinct pattern warns that the battery is nearly drained and machines should shut down now.
Outlets and Connectivity
- Universal sockets — accept British three-pin and European two-pin plugs, so mixed office equipment connects directly.
- Three-pin input plug for Kenyan wall sockets — no conversion plug is needed between the wall and the UPS.
- Single-unit coverage — one 2200VA unit replaces two or three small UPS boxes spread under separate desks.
- Load budget — keep total connected draw near 960W, about 80% of 1200W, for startup headroom and cooler running.
- Suitable devices — desktops, LED monitors, a network switch, router, DVR or NVR, a small server or a gaming PC.
Build and Controls
- Tower design for floor placement — stands upright beside a desk cluster or in a small equipment corner.
- Operating temperature of 0°C to 40°C, per APC's family specification — keep it in shade and out of hot store rooms.
- Black APC enclosure — matches the rest of the Easy UPS range in offices that run several sizes.
- Audible alarm patterns — separate on-battery, low-battery and overload sounds tell staff what is happening without checking the unit.
- Ventilation space around the casing — helps the batteries stay cool, which extends their working life considerably.
Package Contents
The APC Easy UPS 2200VA comes in its sealed APC retail box with the internal batteries already connected, so it is ready once plugged in and charged. Inside you will find the unit with its input power cord and APC's printed safety and installation documents. Output cables are not included, since office devices use their own power cords. For a large office load, our team can recommend extension routing and placement when you collect the unit from Kimathi Street.
