3000W 24V pure sine wave power inverter 230V AC output (UK sockets), with remote on/off switch

A power inverter is a device which converts battery output (DC, or direct current) into 230V AC mains electricity (alternating current). 230V AC is the type of electricity supplied by utility companies to run standard domestic appliances?ÿsuch as?ÿa TV, fridge, radio, lights or to charge a laptop / mobile phone etc.?ÿIf you have a battery, connecting a power inverter will enable you to?ÿpower household appliances in areas with no access to mains electricity; such as in a motorhome, caravan, boat, farm or any other?ÿremote location. Inverters are also perfect for off-grid and back up systems for accidental power cuts.

This is a 3000W 24V pure sine wave power inverter which can generate 3000W of continuous power and up to 6000W of power at peak times (peak time reserve capacity is useful if more energy is required to start an appliance than for its continuous running).

This is a pure sine wave type of inverter, which means that the 230V AC output harmonically follows a smooth sine wave and is almost identical to normal mains electricity. Pure sine wave output is?ÿfar superior than square sine wave or modified sine wave output for running appliances. This is because:

• It is?ÿsuitable for a broader range of appliances (modified sine wave inverters can not power for example, appliances with electric motors)
• It is more efficient compared to modified sine wave inverters.

This product comes with important protection and safety features, such as over-discharge, overload, overheating and short-circuit automatic shutdown.

The inverter also features?ÿa powerful USB port for faster charging of?ÿmobile phones, MP3 players and other USB-compatible devices (2.1A). This item is also supplied with a remote on/off switch with 5m cable, to allow remote monitoring and powering of the inverter.

Note for users of our solar charging systems: this inverter can be connected to your 24V battery / battery bank alongside any of our solar systems or charging kits. If you already have one of our 24V solar charging kits with a charge controller connected to your 24V battery, you can add this inverter?ÿto your existing system?ÿ(connect the inverter to your battery in parallel with the solar controller and 24V appliances). If the solar charge controller has a pair of "load" terminals, please do not connect the inverter to this pair of terminals as the power may be too high for the solar controller.?ÿWe recommend?ÿconnecting it to your 24V battery directly.

If you do not currently?ÿhave one of our 24V solar charging kits but plan on building an off-grid solar system with 230V mains output, we recommend using 24V batteries / 24V solar charging kits and this inverter with a 24V input voltage, rather than having all 12V components?ÿand an inverter with a?ÿ12V input voltage. Higher voltage of the system components is beneficial because:

• Cables for 24V do not have to be as thick as those required for 12V
• Input into the power inverter will have?ÿa twice as low current (Amps) making the whole system more stable and reliable.
