ECTIVE SI & TSI Series
What is an inverter?
An inverter is a technical device to invert d.c. voltage into sinusoidal alternating voltage.
In the case of the ECTIVE inverter the d.c. voltage is usually provided by a battery. In this
way, the inverter inverts direct into alternating current. The 230 V grounded protected
contact socket of the inverter allows to operate electronic devices independant of positi-
on and autonomously, which usually need a 230 V a domestic power supply.
With the ECTIVE TSI series, you also have the function of a uninterruptible power supply
(UPS). Existing mains current is here prioritized. If the mains is switched off, the inverter
automatically switches to battery operation within 16
ms and ensures an uninterrupted
operation of your consumers.
ECO-Mode: With the ECO-Mode from TSI5-series you have the additional function of a
battery priority circuit. When the ECO-Mode is switched on and AC- Power is available,
the battery does not use the AC power and the batteries will not be charged. (ECO-Mode
= Energy-Saving-Mode)
The battery priority function is active as long as the battery voltage is over the certain
“cut off”-battery voltage (voltage values see the chart “safety features”).
If this value is deceeded and the shore power is still connected, the inverter returns to
mains priority circuit to avoid battery damage.
