2 Freedom SW 230V Owner’s Guide
Introduction
Key Features
The Freedom SW 230V Inverter/Charger is a true sine wave
inverter/charger that can be used for mobile, marine and commercial
applications. The Freedom SW 230V Inverter/Chargers are
designed to operate with a wide variety of generators and are
capable of operating in parallel with a generator for short durations
to assist with starting large loads. The Freedom SW 230V is a
convenient combination of an inverter, multistage 24-volt battery
charger, and transfer switch in one electronic device.
•
As an inverter, the Freedom SW 230V provides true sine wave
power for your microwave, entertainment system, computer,
and other loads. This power is identical to the AC source
provided from the utility grid (power company).
• Some of the benefits of true sine wave power include consistent
cooking in your microwave, handling of sensitive loads such as
your TV set, dimmer switches, and appliances with speed
controls.
• Highly versatile platform capable parallel stacking to increase
power levels.
• High efficiency true sine wave output to power sensitive
electrical and electronic equipment.
• Surge capacity to start difficult loads like well pumps,
refrigerators, or A/C compressors.
• Power factor-corrected (PFC) input minimizes AC input
current required for charging, increasing AC pass-through
capacity.
• As a 24-volt charger, it has high output, multi-stage charging
capability minimizing charging time.
• Capable of operating from 50Hz and 60Hz power source by
extending AC qualification frequency range. See “ACIn
Settings” on page 56.
• Temperature-controlled, variable-speed internal cooling fans.
The fans turn on when the internal temperature reaches 55 °C
and reaches maximum speed at 70 °C. The fan turns off when
the internal temperature falls to 50 °C.
• Designed with efficient field serviceability in mind using
authorized service centers.
• The Freedom SW 230V Inverter/Charger is also Xanbus-
enabled which allows network compatibility and
communication with other Xanbus-enabled devices. See more
information under “System Components” on page 6.
