European and Exports
Wherever you are in the world, OutBack’s European and Export off-grid inverter/chargers
are engineered to provide your home or business with reliable 50 Hz AC power. Our
high surge power capability starts the most demanding of 230 volt appliances and
the modular system architecture makes expanding a system’s power capacity or
switching to three-phase output power simple and trouble free. Both sealed (FX) and
vented (VFX) models are available with 50 Hz output to match your installation’s envi-
ronmental conditions. The inverter/chargers low weight (as low as 27 kilograms) and
compact dimensions allow easy transport and installation in less than ideal locations.
Our field serviceable design eliminates the need to ship inverters if repair or upgrades
are required. Superior technical support is available from our European office, allow-
ing questions to be promptly answered and any problems to be quickly resolved.
Mobile and Marine
OutBack’s Mobile and Marine inverter/charger models provide the high performance and
reliability you need no matter where your travels take you. Our die-cast metal construction
allows mounting in any position, even upside down. The required AC input neutral/ground
switching is taken care of by a fully integrated 30 amp AC transfer switch for shore chord
or generator hook-up. Three circuit boards and a simple design make field servicing the
unit easy no matter where you are. Rigorous testing at the factory ensures that each
inverter/charger works the first time as well as for many years to come.
Grid-Interactive
Grid-Interactive renewable energy systems enable you to demonstrate your personal
commitment to a renewable energy future. With the OutBack grid-interactive system,
backup AC power is made available 24 hours a day in the event of a utility outage, provid-
ing reliable power and peace-of-mind. At night, the inverter’s automatic power save mode
ensures that energy is not wasted by needlessly charging your batteries from the utility
grid. An average conversion efficiency of 91% using the California Energy Commission
(CEC) test protocol provides greater savings and a shorter time period for system payback.
OutBack’s grid-interactive technology provides you more than a typical solar inverter, we
also have an unmatched ability to utilize solar, wind and hydropower sources.
Off-Grid
Solar. Wind. Hydro. Generator. No matter what your energy source OutBack’s products
are engineered to provide your home or business with reliable electricity day-in and day-
out. The OutBack modular system architecture allows your system to grow along with
your power needs up to 36,000 watts. Power hungry appliances like washing machines, air
conditioning and power tools are easily started by our inverter’s substantial surge power
capability. When not being used, the inverter enters a power save mode, which consumes
as little as 3 watts, saving your battery power for when you need it the most. OutBack’s
innovative Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) technology gets the most from your
solar array or can also control hydro or wind turbine charging sources. Complete system
status and control is easily monitored by a single control, instead of requiring the user to
keep an eye on multiple displays and status indicators.
