The TPQ-1200 goes beyond the kilowatt range of standard power supply units (PSUs) to power the largest servers
and video workstations. It includes six rails of +12V output to deliver safe and reliable power to your system, and
enough power and cables available to run three or more separate high-end graphics cards simultaneously.

EATURES
The TruePower Quattro series is compatible with ATX12V v2.3 and EPS12V v2.91 specifications. The TPQ-1200 PSU
features Universal Input, which automatically senses when you connect the power supply to any AC power source
between 100
~
240V without having to worry about setting a voltage switch, and Active Power Factor Correction
(Active PFC), which improves the power factor value of the power supply by altering the input current wave shape,
thus helping transmission across the power grid.

ATING
Unlike other power supplies that are rated by their peak wattage, Antec power supplies are rated based on their
continuous power output. This means that your TPQ-1200 delivers 1200-watt power during normal, continuous
operation; not simply at its peak

ROTECTION
The TPQ-1200 also includes a variety of industrial-grade protective circuitry: OCP (Over Current Protection), OVP
(Over Voltage Protection), UVP (Under Voltage Protection), and SCP (Short Circuit Protection). Sometimes the PSU
will “latch” into a protected state. This means that you will need to clear the fault and turn the power off to the
PSU before it will function again. There are no user-replaceable fuses in your TPQ-1200.

ERTIFICATION
80 PLUS® certification is the most widely recognized independent standard in power supply efficiency. An 80
PLUS® certified power supply uses less energy and generates less heat to stay cooler, run quieter and last longer.
The TPQ-1200 earns the rare 80 PLUS® Silver level of efficiency, meaning that it has been certified to be at least
85% efficient at a wide range of operating loads; this will lower your operating costs and help protect the
environment.
