This unit is a Modified Sine Inverter / Charger with a Transfer Relay with primary function
of backup AC Power Source or off-Line AC UPS (Un-interruptible Power Supply). The unit
consists of the following 3 component integrated into a single unit:
• Modified Sine Wave Inverter for AC back up when utility AC Power fails:
• Input: 12V Nominal Lead Acid Battery (10.5V to 15.5V)
• Output: 1500W (At Power Factor =1) at 115 VAC, 60Hz
• AC Battery Charger to charge batteries when Utility AC Power is available:
• Input: 120 VAC, 60Hz
• Output: 13.8 VDC, 15A to charge 12V Lead Acid Batteries - Flooded, AGM or Gel Cell
• 2-Stage Charging - Bulk and Float
• AC Input Pass Through to load when Utility AC Power is available
• Input: 120 VAC, 60Hz
• Transfer Relay: 30A
The primary function of the unit is a 1500W, 120 VAC backup AC Power Source or off-Line
AC UPS (Un-interruptible Power Supply) with combined operation of the Inverter, the
battery Charger and the Transfer relay. Secondary functions can be a 1500W stand alone
inverter or a 15A, 12V stand alone Lead Acid battery Charger.
