Possible Product/Country Incompatibility

This product may be incompatible with your voltage or frequency, or it may be designed to comply with the standards or usage in another country. [MP0042]

Portable 2400W power source for any type of equipment from power tools to computers as a vehicle inverter, standalone AC power source or extended-run UPS. Ideal for RVs, commercial and fleet vehicles and emergency vehicles.

  • Delivers clean 230V AC power from AC or DC power source
  • 2400W continuous output power; 4800W peak power
  • Auto-transfer switching option for UPS operation
  • Protects against blackouts, surges and EMI/RFI line noise
  • Rugged polycarbonate housing resists moisture and impact
  • 1-year limited warranty

Overview

The APSINT2424 2400W APS INT Series 24V DC 230V AC Inverter/Charger is a reliable power source for a wide variety of equipment ranging from power tools and pumps to portable lighting and computer equipment in heavy-load conditions. With no fumes, fuel or excess noise, it’s an excellent alternative to generator power.

The DC-to-AC inverter features an automatic line-to-battery transfer switch and integrated charging system that allow it to work as a vehicle inverter, standalone AC power source or extended-run UPS. It delivers 2400W of continuous power, 3600W up to one hour, or 4800W of peak power up to 10 seconds during equipment startup or cycling. An automatic overload detector, cooling fan and resettable AC circuit breakers protect the unit from damage.

Designed for easy installation in RVs, commercial and fleet vehicles, emergency vehicles and construction equipment, the APSINT2424 converts stored power from any 24V battery or automotive DC source to safe, stable, computer-grade AC power for unlimited runtime. When hardwired to an external 230V AC source, the unit keeps the user-supplied battery charged via a three-stage 30A charging system while simultaneously delivering AC power to connected equipment.

When used as a UPS, the APSINT2424 responds to blackouts and brownouts with an automatic, instantaneous transfer to battery-derived AC output. LEDs on the unit indicate AC/DC operational modes, overload status, DC voltage level, shutdown status and system fault status.

INPUT
Nominal Input Voltage(s) Supported230V AC
Maximum Input Amps / WattsDC INPUT: Full continuous load - 112A at 24VDC. AC INPUT: 17 amps at 230VAC with full inverter and charger load (7A max charger-only / combined input load to support charger and AC output is automatically controllable to 66%-33%-0% based on AC output loading using the charger limiting set points - see manual for setting instructions)
Recommended Electrical ServiceDC INPUT: Requires 24VDC input source capable of delivering 112A for the required duration (when used at full continuous capacity - DC requirements increase during OverPower and DoubleBoost operation). For automotive applications, professional hardwire installation with 300A minimum battery system fusing is recommended.

Questions & Answers

The batteries used with the inverter should be the same voltage and amp hour rating. If you're purchasing 6 of the 98-121 (12volt, 75 amp hour) batteries you will definitely have matching batteries and shouldn't have any battery backup issues.
