2 Freedom HF Owner’s Guide
Introduction
Key Features
Power for Most Appliances The Freedom HF inverter/charger
provides up to 1000 watts (Models
a
Freedom HF 1000, Freedom
HF 1055, and Freedom HF 1055 EMS), up to 1500 watts (Freedom
HF 1500
b
), or up to 1800 watts (Models
c
Freedom HF 1800,
Freedom HF 1800 T, and Freedom HF 1800 EMS) of continuous
modified sine wave power derived from a battery bank. It is
designed to handle loads such as microwave ovens, TVs, VCRs, and
mid-sized power tools. In addition, the Freedom HF’s high-surge
capability lets you handle many hard-to-start loads, including large
TVs and small refrigerators.
The built-in transfer switch automatically transfers between inverter
power and shore power from recreational facilities such as boat
docks or campsites to ensure power is always available. The built-in
charger also automatically charges the battery bank when the
Freedom HF is connected to shore power.
Comprehensive Protection The Freedom HF’s built-in
protection features safeguard your batteries and equipment, such as:
• The low battery voltage alarm and shutdown prevents your
batteries from becoming completely discharged,
• the three-stage charging capability ensures that batteries
receive efficient charge, and
• automatic switching between inverter power to pass-
through shore power.
Back-up Capability If incoming shore power is interrupted by
external events like brownouts, the Freedom HF automatically
becomes an independent power source
d
that supplies quality AC to
your loads.
Overload Alarm and Shutdown During inverter mode, the
Freedom HF automatically alerts you if the loads that are connected
and drawing power from the unit are close to approaching the
maximum operating limit. If so, the Freedom HF automatically
shuts down when the maximum operating limit is exceeded.
