Inverters

Sun Volts Unlimited™ carries a full selection of Inverters. If the inverter you are interested in is not listed below please contact us for details or for complete specifications on the inverter you are interested in.

Inverters convert low voltage DC battery power to standard AC power. You will be able to run regular AC loads from an inverter. There are many considerations to take into account when choosing an inverter, such as: Pure sine wave vs. modified square wave, size of inverter, surge of the inverter, efficiency, cost, functions, options available, etc. Please contact us for help choosing an appropriate inverter for your application.

XW Inverter Series Accessories

System Control Panel Is a XanBus - enabled device featuring a graphical, backlit LCD screen that displays system configuration and diagnostic information for all devices connected to the network. When installed as an XW System accessory, it eliminates the need for separate control panels for each device and gives a single point of control to set up and monitor an entire XW Power System.
Automatic Generator Start Is a XanBus - enabled device that can automatically activate a generator to provide an XW Series Inverter/Charger with power to recharge depleted batteries or assist with heavy loads. It can be configured to start the generator in response to low battery voltage, thermostat operation, or load size on the inverter battery. A quiet time setting prevents the generator from starting at inconvenient times. The LCD display shows the status of the XW Automatic Generator Start, while all user defined settings are programmed through the XX System Control Panel.
