Automatic uninterruptible power for large loads and critical equipment,

Tripp Lite's APS512 3-function DC-to-AC inverter with auto line-to-battery transfer and integrated charging system serves as an extended run UPS, a standalone power source or an automotive inverter. Supplies up to 500 watts of continuous 120V AC power to 2 AC outlets from any 12V battery or automotive DC source. When AC cable is connected to a live wall socket, commercial power passes through to connected equipment and the battery set is recharged via 3 stage, 18 amp charging system. In UPS mode, the APS system responds to blackouts and brownouts with an uninterrupted transfer to battery-derived AC output. Includes a set of high current DC input terminals for simple installation (user supplies batteries and cabling). Reliable large transformer design with efficient PWM sine wave output and frequency control powers resistive electronic loads or large inductive motors, compressors and other items with high current needs on startup. 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.

• Functions as an extended run UPS system, standalone power source and automotive inverter
   
• Includes AC input cord and auto-transfer to enable battery charging and automatic UPS support for blackouts & brownouts
   
• 500 watts continuous output power; provides up to twice this rating for momentary startup of inductive loads
   
• Battery runtime is dependent upon the size and number of user-supplied 12-volt batteries used
   
• 2 outlets; 6-ft. AC power cord; DC input terminals for 12V battery connection
   
• Converts 12 volt DC to 120 volt AC
   
• Frequency control for operating stability
   
• Advanced 18 amp, 3-stage battery charger and selector switch for gel or wet cell batteries
   
• Resettable circuit breaker protects APS against system overload
   
• Switch allows user to select between off, auto-invert and charge-only settings
   
• 6 diagnostic LEDs indicate AC present, on battery, overload, & battery voltage level (high, medium, & low)
   
• Configuration switches to allow the user to select the high and low voltage for the unit to automatically transfer from AC power to battery backup
   
• Coated internal circuit boards offer continuous operation in humid environments (0-95%, non condensing)
   
• 3.5mm port for connecting remote switch (User supplies plug, cable and switch - see manual)
   
• Allows unlimited runtime capability by allowing the use any number of user-supplied batteries
   

Typical Applications:

Extended Run UPS
Configure as a UPS for long-term battery support of telecom systems, security alarms, computer systems and various other motorized and electronic loads.

Standalone Power
Alternative power source for use in off-grid, backwoods, alternative energy and export applications where commercial power is not continuously available.

Automotive
Connect to an automotive electrical system to run power tools, computers, electronic test equipment, home entertainment and other AC appliances in fleet service vehicles, over-the-road trucks, campers, RVs, minivans and more.
