Description

Tripp Lite's APSX6048VR DC-to-AC inverter with automatic line-to-battery transfer and integrated charging system serves as an extended run UPS,
a standalone power source or an inverter. Supplies up to 6000 watts of continuous 208 or 230V sine wave AC power from any 48V battery or
automotive DC source. When hardwire AC input is energized, commercial power passes through to connected equipment and the battery set is
recharged via 3 stage, 23/90 amp charging system. In UPS mode, the APS system responds to blackouts and severe voltage fluctuations with a
near instantaneous automatic transfer to battery-derived AC output. Includes a set of high current DC input terminals for simple installation (user
supplies batteries and cabling - see owner's manual for recommendations). Passes sine wave utility or generator power during battery charging and
UPS line power operation, and sine wave AC output in inverter and UPS backup modes. Built-in Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) corrects line
power AC brownouts and overvoltages without using battery power during battery charging and UPS standby modes. Reliable large transformer
design, with frequency control powers resistive electronic loads or large inductive motors, compressors and other items with high current needs on
startup. Optional APSRM4 wired remote power switch with full status LEDs provides remote power inverter on/off switching and continuous status
information (part# APSRM4 sold separately). Supports an unlimited amount of runtime with any number of user-supplied batteries connected. Highly
adaptable to a variety of applications and site conditions with adjustable charger settings for wet/gel battery types and selectable line to battery
power transfer voltages. DB9 communication port for SNMPWEBSOLOHV management.

Applications

Ideal for RVs, over-the-road trucking, conversion vans and fleet service vehicles; a standalone alternative power source for off-grid,

alternative energy or export applications, and as an uninterruptible power supply (UPS). NOTE: For sump pump applications, Tripp Lite

recommends its APS Truck Inverter/Chargers.

Features

Supports 208/230V AC output from a 208/230V AC line power source or 48V DC battery source

6000W continuous sinewave AC output in inverter mode

Double Boost output supports momentary start-up loads up to 200% of the continuous rating for up to 10 seconds (see specification chart) -

OverPower output supports longer duration overloads to 150% for up to 60 seconds

3-stage, selectable 23/90 amp battery charger with adjustable settings for wet/gel battery types

Set of 6 front panel LEDs display continuous status information

Set of 4 dip switches support AC input selection of 230V, selectable 50 /60Hz frequency, and selectable full or half cycle transfer times

Set of 4 dip switches support wet/gel battery charging profiles, adjustable 260/270V (230V) high voltage auto transfer during overvoltages

and selectable 150/60V / 170/180V (230V) AC low voltage auto transfer during brownouts

Set of 4 additional dip switches support battery equalization program and battery charger low / high settings

Automatic overload and thermal (overheating) shutoff

Front panel remote control connector enables remote off/on switching (APSRM4 sold separately)

Load sensing control dial enables adjustable load threshold required to automatically turn the inverter on and off in DC mode as load

conditions change

Automatic Generator Starter jack enables user configuration of automatic generator start-up as inverter batteries drop to 23.0 VDC and

generator shutoff as inverter batteries are recharged to 28.2 VDC.

Remote battery temperature sensing connection function prolongs battery life by adjusting the charge float voltage level based on battery

temperature

DB9 communication port for SNMPWEBSOLOHV management.
