1.6 Standard Features and Benefi ts
The MMS-E Series inverter/charger converts 12 volts of direct cur-
rent (VDC) power from your battery to 230 volts alternating current
(VAC) power. The multi-stage battery charger optimizes incoming AC
power using power factor correction (PFC) technology to keep the
inverter’s battery bank fully charged. This inverter is designed to allow
easy installation and use, and with its die-cast aluminum baseplate
it ensures maximum durability and cooler, more effi cient operation.
The inverter/charger provides the following:
• 900 watts continuous at 25°C
• numerous protection features to provide a safe and peace-of-
mind operation
• AC transfer switch circuitry; allowing incoming AC power to con-
tinue to pass-thru to power loads even if the inverter is off
• dead battery charging for batteries that are extremely low
• automatic 4-stage battery charger with power factor correction
and temperature compensation – for optimum battery charging
(using the temperature sensor)
• modern and aesthetically pleasing design with a large AC wiring
compartment (provides easy access to AC wiring for simple and
quick connections) and 360° DC connection terminals with color
coded insulating covers
• true RMS output voltage regulation to ensure the inverter will
deliver the correct amount of power – within the DC input voltage
range and the continuous output power level
• quick connection accessory and remote ports – easily accepts
several optional remote controls and the Battery Temperature
Sensor
The MMS-E Series inverter/chargers are equipped with the following
features (see Figures 1-2 & 1-3):
1
Inverter Status Indicator - this green LED illuminates to
provide information on the inverter’s operation.
2
Power Switch - a momentary pushbutton switch that turns
the inverter on or off.
3
Negative DC Terminal (black) - the inverter’s connection
to the negative terminal on the battery bank.
