Basic Features
Congratulations on your purchase of a Sine Wave Plus Inverter/Charger
from Xantrex Technology, Inc. The Sine Wave Plus is one of the finest
inverter/chargers on the market today, incorporating state-of-the-art
technology, high reliability, and convenient control features.
Specific features include:
•
FCC Part B compliant
• 2.5 kW continuous output of sine wave power (to 40 °C) for 120 Vac/
60 Hz applications
• expandable to 5 kW for 120/240 Vac/60 Hz applications by
combining dual inverters using the Inverter Stacking Control – Series
(ISC-S) cable
• 24-volt or 48-volt models
• multi-stage battery charging
• automatic temperature compensation for battery charging (requires
the use of the Battery Temperature Sensor (BTS) provided with the
unit)
• push-button control module with a liquid crystal display (LCD) for
easy programming and troubleshooting
• light emitting diode (LED) display of system operational status
• automatic on/off control of electric-start generators
(requires additional equipment)
• remote monitoring (requires additional equipment)
• auxiliary load control (requires additional equipment)
• high surge/current capacity (4 times the continuous current rating)
• energy management features control utility and/or generator usage
• energy efficient with greater than 90% peak efficiency (95% peak)
and less than 16 watts of idle current; less than 2 watts in search mode
The default settings of the Sine Wave Plus Inverter/Charger allow the
system to perform in many installations without the need for additional
setup. However, if additional setup parameters are required, the push-
button features on the Inverter Control Module (ICM) on the front panel
of the unit enables the system to be easily reprogrammed to meet specific
customer configurations.
