Minimal power requirements for some electrical appliances
Example:
› Largest appliance on board is a toaster with 1400 watts
› The technically most demanding appliance is an
electric toothbrush with 50 watt output
Our recommendation:
A sine wave inverter with at least 1400 watts:
WAECO SinePower MSP 1512
Alternatively:
WAECO PerfectPower PP 2002 for the toaster and an
additional sine wave inverter SinePower MSP 162 for
the toothbrush

Inverter in pocket-size format
Whether it's for a car, motorhome or a boat – it makes
sense to have 230 volts on board your leisure vehicle.
After all, enjoying your holiday means being able to use
the electrical gadgets you are used to. The problem is they
work on 230 volt sockets. Here the vehicle battery or
leisure battery can be the power source for the on board
system.
How do you turn 12 or 24 volts direct current into 230 volt
alternating current? Quite simply: by using a WAECO
inverter. The comprehensive range of inverters has been
tailored to suit a variety of applications. It accounts for all
your needs – if you just want a reasonably priced compact
unit to run your laptop or if you are often on the road and
would like to run your microwave or espresso machine
using an inverter. All units feature outstanding quality and
a contemporary, user-friendly design.

Inverter or sine wave inverter?
The right inverter for you depends on the type and power rating of
the appliance to be connected. The low-priced inverters from the
WAECO PerfectPower product range provide modified output voltage. This
is perfectly adequate for all appliances with a wide input voltage range
(hairdryers, vacuum cleaners).
Sensitive high-tech appliances with special start-up characteristics, e.g.
audio / video devices, require a perfectly stable voltage supply. Fluctuations
may cause failure or even damage them. You'll always be on the safe side
with the sine wave inverters from the WAECO SinePower product range, as
they supply stable 230 volt input voltage just like from a home power socket.
Modified or pure sine wave voltage supply is also provided by the small
PocketPower smart inverters, designed for mobile use of laptops and the
like.
Basically, the most demanding electrical appliance determines the choice of
inverter. A single appliance on board requiring a pure sine wave voltage is
reason enough for you to opt for a sine wave inverter. You should also
consider the starting current of the devices. Compressor refrigerators, for
example, can consume up to ten times more than their nominal power
consumption.
Most frequent applications include: charging mobile phone batteries, cameras, torch lights, power tools, satellite aerials, DVD players, TV sets ...
Pure sine wave voltage
The voltage is precisely controlled by a microprocessor.
The result: a clean sine wave voltage, like that from a home power socket
› WAECO SinePower sine wave inverters (p. 142 – 147)
Modified sine wave voltage
The voltage produces a stepped curve simulating a sine wave.
The result: an output voltage of stable amplitude and frequency

Pure or modified sine wave voltage?
What are the advantages of a mains priority circuit with voltage synchronisation?
All larger inverters in the PerfectPower and SinePower series feature an integrated
mains priority circuit. This automatically gives priority to mains power as soon as it is
available. Consequently, the inverter is switched off and the battery saved as soon as
your boat or motorhome has access to an external mains supply.
Mains priority circuit with voltage synchronisation
All high-performance inverters of the WAECO SinePower series have been equipped
with this technical highlight. Here’s why it makes sense. Many 230-volt appliances
depend on an uninterrupted power supply. Moreover, it is vital to ensure a “smooth”
voltage switch-over, which is exactly what the MSP 702 to 2524 sine wave inverters
provide. In these units the inverter voltage is synchronised to match the mains voltage,
and the switchover takes place in a fraction of a second.
Only this integrated solution – the combination of inverter and mains priority circuit –
permits a smooth switch-over and provides optimum protection for electrical
appliances.
