APS2012SW

1000 Eaton Boulevard Cleveland, OH 44122 United States 2000W PowerVerter APS 12VDC 120V Inverter/Charger with Pure Sine-Wave Output, Hardwired Highlights ● Delivers pure sine-wave 120V AC power from AC or DC source ● 2000W continuous output power; 4000W peak power ● Auto-transfer switching option for UPS operation ● Protects against blackouts, surges and EMI/RFI line noise ● Rugged polycarbonate housing resists moisture and impact MODEL NUMBER: APS2012SW Package Includes Portable 2000W power source for power tools, computers, audio/video components and other sensitive electronics as a vehicle inverter, standalone AC power source or extended-run UPS. Ideal for mobile, emergency and remote sites. Description The APS2012SW 2000W PowerVerter APS 12V DC 120V AC Inverter/Charger is a reliable power source for a wide variety of power tools, computers, audio/video components and other sensitive electronics at mobile, emergency and remote sites. With no fumes, fuel or excess noise, it’s an excellent alternative to generator power. The DC-to-AC pure sine-wave inverter delivers network-grade power to sensitive electronics. Its automatic line-to-battery transfer switch and integrated charging system allow the unit to work as a vehicle inverter, standalone AC power source or extended-run UPS. It delivers 2000W of continuous power or 4000W of peak power up to 10 seconds during equipment startup or cycling. An automatic overload detector, cooling fan and resettable AC circuit breakers protect the unit from damage. Designed for easy installation in RVs, commercial and fleet vehicles and emergency vehicles, the APS2012SW converts stored power from any 12V battery or automotive DC source to safe, stable, computer-grade AC power for unlimited runtime. When hardwired to an external 120V AC source, the unit keeps the user-supplied battery charged via a three-stage 6/60A selectable charging system while simultaneously delivering AC power to connected equipment. When used as a UPS, the APS2012SW responds to blackouts and brownouts with an automatic, instantaneous transfer to battery-derived AC output. LEDs on the unit indicate battery voltage, charger and inverter status. 1/5 ● APS2012SW 2000W PowerVerter APS 12V DC 120V AC Inverter/Charger ● Owner’s manual 1000 Eaton Boulevard Cleveland, OH 44122 United States Features Reliable Power for Mobile, Emergency and Remote Sites ● Generates 120V pure sine-wave power from 12V battery bank ● Ideal for powering variable-speed tools, computers, LEDs, fans, audio/video components and other sensitive electronics ● Designed for easy installation in RVs, commercial and fleet vehicles, emergency vehicles and construction equipment ● Functions as vehicle inverter, standalone AC power source or extended-run UPS ● Unlimited runtime with variety of user-supplied batteries Pure Sine-Wave Power for Normal and Peak Power Demands ● 2000W of continuous power ● 4000W of peak power up to 10 sec. to accommodate surge power demands during equipment startup and cycling ● Automatic overload detector, built-in cooling fan and resettable AC circuit breakers protect unit from damage ● High-current DC input terminals for simple hardwired installation Automatic Transfer Switching ● Transfer relay switches to inverter power during blackout in 16 ms 3-Stage 6/60A Selectable Battery Charger ● Serves as battery charger when external 120V AC power is supplied and powering connected equipment ● Protects battery from overcharging and overdischarging ● Low-battery protection prevents excessive battery depletion ● DIP switches configure wet/gel charging profiles External Ports ● Battery temperature port allows connection of optional remote battery temperature sensor, such as Tripp Lite’s APSSWTEMP ● RJ45 communication port allows connection of optional remote control module, such as Tripp Lite’s APSRMSW Front-Panel LEDs ● Indicate battery voltage, charger and inverter status Rugged Steel Housing ● Resists moisture, vibration and impact ● Built-in mounting feet for installation on any rigid horizontal surface Specifications OVERVIEW UPC Code 037332167170 2/5 1000 Eaton Boulevard Cleveland, OH 44122 United States INPUT Nominal Input Voltage(s) Supported 120V AC Maximum Input Amps / Watts DC INPUT: Full continuous load - 250A at 12VDC. AC INPUT: 27 amps at 120VAC with full inverter and charger load (8.7A max charger-only / combined input load to support charger and AC output is automatically controllable to 66%-33%-0% based on AC output loading using the charger limiting set points - see manual for setting instructions) Recommended Electrical Service DC INPUT: Requires 12VDC input source capable of delivering 250A for the required duration (when used at full continuous capacity - DC requirements increase during OverPower and DoubleBoost operation).
