Inter-Tech IPC ASPOWER U1A-C20500-D 500W
Inter-Tech IPC ASPOWER U1A-C20500-D 500W
The Inter-Tech IPC ASPOWER U1A-C20500-D computer power supply delivers stable energy to components in server and industrial builds with a total output of 500W. Its energy efficiency is confirmed by the 80 PLUS Silver certification, which converts up to 92% of input energy into usable power under typical load. This significantly reduces residual heat production and lowers overall running costs. Its compact design allows for installation in specific server cases. Additionally, the Full Range input voltage of 100–240V supports deployment in various electrical grids worldwide.

Choosing a power supply
When choosing a suitable PC power supply, the key parameter, besides the format, is its power output. This indicates the maximum amount of watts the power supply can continuously deliver to the computer's components. It is a good idea to use an online calculator to determine the optimal power based on your chosen components.
High efficiency
The power supply meets the 80 PLUS Silver certification requirements, resulting in low electricity consumption and less heat generation. For long-term and reliable operation, the mean time between failures is 100000 hours. This value defines it as a stable foundation for systems that require continuous operation and minimal maintenance. A fan, which operates at temperatures from 0°C to 50°C, takes care of heat dissipation from the internal circuits. Its operation is controlled by automatic speed regulation based on the current load and temperature, thereby maintaining optimal operating conditions without excessive noise.
Protection and connectivity
For the safe operation of connected components, the power supply integrates five protection circuits. These include protection against overvoltage, overcurrent, overload, short circuits, and overheating. The connector set includes power for the processor via a 4+4-pin EPS cable, one 8-pin PCI-E connector for graphics cards, and peripherals that can be connected using two SATA connectors and four Molex connectors.

80 Plus certification on the European market
The 80 Plus certification was created to objectively assess the efficiency of computer power supplies. This gives users a simple and clear way to compare different models. On the European market (where 230V is used), there are six levels of 80 Plus certification with set requirements for computer power supplies. Higher energy efficiency primarily means lower energy consumption.
| PC power supply load | Efficiency at 20% load | Efficiency at 50% load | Efficiency at 100% load |
|---|---|---|---|
| 80 PLUS | 82% | 85% | 82% |
| 80 PLUS Bronze | 85% | 88% | 85% |
| 80 PLUS Silver | 87% | 90% | 87% |
| 80 PLUS Gold | 90% | 92% | 89% |
| 80 PLUS Platinum | 92% | 94% | 90% |
