Key Features
The Conext SW Inverter/Charger is a true sine wave inverter/charger that can be
used for off-grid, backup, solar, and hybrid applications. The Conext SW Inverter/
Chargers are designed to operate with a wide variety of generators and are
capable of operating in parallel with a generator for short durations to assist with
starting large loads. The Conext SW is a convenient combination of an inverter,
multi-stage battery charger, and transfer switch in one electronic device.
The Conext SW Inverter/Charger’s key features are:
•
True Sine Wave output
- as an inverter, the Conext SW provides true sine wave
power for your microwave, entertainment system, computer, and other loads.
This power is identical to the AC source provided from the utility grid (power
company).
Some of the benefits of high efficiency true sine wave power include consistent
cooking in your microwave, handling of sensitive loads such as your TV set,
dimmer switches, and appliances with speed controls.
•
Multiple unit configuration
- the Conext SW Inverter/Charger has a highly
versatile platform capable of parallel multiple unit configuration
1
to increase
power levels.
•
High surge capacity
- the Conext SW Inverter/Charger has a surge rating that is
twice the maximum continuous output power rating to start difficult loads like well
pumps, refrigerators, or A/C compressors. See “Inverter Specifications” on
page 6–2.
•
Power factor correction
- Power factor-corrected (PFC) input minimizes AC
input current required for charging, increasing AC pass-through capacity.
•
Multi-stage charging
- the Conext SW Inverter/Charger has a high output, multi-
stage charging capability that minimizes charging time.
•
Adjustable frequency
- the Conext SW Inverter/Charger is capable of operating
from a 50Hz and 60Hz power source by extending the AC qualification frequency
range. See “AC Settings” on page 4–22.
•
Temperature-controlled, variable-speed internal cooling fans
- the fans turn
on when the internal temperature reaches 45 °C and reaches maximum speed at
70 °C. The fan turns off when the internal temperature falls to 40 °C.
•
Xanbus-enabled
- the Conext SW Inverter/Charger is also Xanbus-enabled
which allows network compatibility and communication with other Xanbus-
enabled devices. See more information under “Xanbus System” on page 2–2.
1.In Conext SW Inverter/Chargers, multiple unit configuration (installation) is limited to two units -
one master unit and one slave unit.
