HOW THE ExprESS™ WORKS
UPS Mode (Uninterruptible Power Supply)
• Plug the supplied extension cord into the ExprESS™ “AC Input” and into a standard AC outlet
(wall socket)
• Plug electronic devices and equipment into one of the ExprESS™ AC or USB DC power outlets
• Turn the ExprESS™ inverter “ON” using the Controller Module (refer to manual as needed)
• AC Power will now be available from the ExprESS™ AC outlet
°
The AC grid automatically charges the ExprESS™ whenever the batteries need recharging
°
During a grid failure, the ExprESS™ automatically switches to UPS mode enabling uninterrupted
(continual) and reliable equipment operation for critcial electrical loads
Remote AC Power
• Turn the ExprESS™ inverter “ON” using the Controller Module
• Plug electronic devices and equipment into the ExprESS™ AC or USB DC power outlets
• Power is now available to run your electronic devices and equipment for hours or days at a time
Recharge
• When battery power is low or whenever time permits, plug the ExprESS™ into the wall, generator or
solar/wind charger to recharge. Charging can be done as frequently as desired without harm to the
system or the PHI 3.5 batteries. The ExprESS can be used to support electrical loads while charging.
The power required to run equipment in everyday situations varies with the electrical device. Appliances
such as microwaves, irons, toaster ovens, and hairdryers require high current for short periods of time.
Appliances such as televisions, computers, fans, and refrigerators use low current for extended periods
of time.
For example, if all of the following devices are used once a day, the total usage will be less than 1,500
watt hours.
