Introduction
Computers are moving into non-traditional work areas at an ever increasing rate as more
and more specialty software packages become available. However there is a major problem.
Computers require clean, pure AC power to work reliably. If you power one from the same
Genset that runs your heavy loads, you could damage it from surges and spikes generated by
switching those loads. If you power it from the same Inverter that runs a microwave and other
electrical devices, similar problems occur, plus voltage dropouts from excessive loads on the
inverter add to the problem. Also, most inverters produce ‘Quasi-Sine Wave’ AC, which often
doesn’t run computers very well. Complaints of noisy displays, cursors that move by themselves
and more abound.
The IPS1500 Series 1500 Watt ‘Pure Sine Wave’ Inverter is designed specifically for running
computers and their related equipment.
FEATURES
•
‘Pure Sine Wave’ 115 VAC / 60 Hz or 220 VAC / 50 Hz fully regulated output, exactly
the same as commercial AC.
•
Crystal controlled for precise frequency (± 0.01 Hz).
•
1500 Watts output power sufficient for a complete computer workstation and more.
•
State of the art MOSFET technology and unique Soft-Start circuitry for reliable
operation.
•
Illuminated ON-OFF switch for positive indication of proper operation.
•
Heavy input filtering to shield other devices sharing the same battery.
•
Transformer type output to protect computers and other sensitive equipment from
surges and spikes.
•
Low voltage warning and shutdown circuitry to protect the batteries.
•
Over voltage and over temperature warning and shutdown circuitry to protect the
inverter.
•
Short circuit protection.
•
LED indicators and a buzzer to bring attention to the cause of the shutdown.
•
Two AC receptacles for easy connection of up to four devices.
•
Versions are available for 24 & 32 volt battery systems.
•
Optional line detect feature available for operation as an ‘off-line’ UPS.
•
Three year parts and labour warranty.
