Inverters are electronic devices used to change DC
battery power into 120 volt AC house power. These models are efficient, reliable
and easy to use. The idle power loss is low, so most inverters can be left on 24
hours a day. Large inverters have a high surge rating which is good for starting
motors. The starting current surge for a motor is 3 to 5 times the running
current. Most AC appliances and power tools will run on an inverter as long as
the inverter is not overloaded. The power company (grid power) produces a sine
wave electricity while many inverters produce a modified square wave.
Inverters are used in homes, cabins, boats, RVs and job sites. They provide
quiet AC power compared to an engine generator. A generators run time and
operating costs are greatly reduced by using an inverter and battery bank. The
inverter and battery bank can supply AC power 24 hours a day. The generator is
used to recharge the battery. Solar and wind power can be added to help charge
the battery and reduce the generator run time even more. Use a proper size fuse
or circuit breaker between inverter and battery.

Magnum Inverter/Chargers
New design - Made in USA
Easier to use - Powerful - Cost Effective
Sine Wave Model MS is for Mobile or Off grid
use.
Model MS4024AE and MS4448AE have dual output voltage of 120 and
240 volts AC.
Modified Wave Models ME is for Mobile RV,
Marine, Truck use &
RD is for Backup Grid power, Off grid, Solar, Wind, Hydro use.
Magnum inverters have advance design with improved
technology and reliability. Models MS, ME and RD include Power Factor
Corrected (sine wave) battery chargers that are 85%-90% efficient with
five stage charging: Bulk, Absorb, Float, Equalize and Battery Saver.
Ordinary battery chargers and other brands of modified wave inverters with
chargers are only 50-60% efficient. They waste generator fuel, can take 40%
longer to charge a battery and may have less than full charging rate output
on many generators.
Convenient on/off switch with indicator light, all
modules over 1500 watts use the
same optional remote control and optional Auto Generator Start
module, have Flash programming for memory upgrades, same easy wire hookups,
fit the same E-Panel, variable speed fan cooled, easy field servicing with
replaceable conformal coated circuit boards, fast 16 msecs transfer relay is
50 amp rated. Multiple ports: including an RS485 communication port for
network expansion and a remote port. Large AC terminal cover for better
access.
Search Mode low power amps are .2 for ME and .3 for
MS and RD models.
Dual AC output voltage. MS4024AE and
MS4448AE models have 120 volt and 240 volt AC output. Up to 80% of power
rating is available on one 120 volt output side.
2 year warranty on RD series and MS4448AE. 3 year
warranty on ME and MS
series. Lightweight aluminum cover is 13.75 x 12.65 x 8. Mount on shelf,
wall, E-Panel or even upside down. MS, ME and RD inverters have the same
physical size, mounting and wiring connections. Remote battery sensor
included.

TR inverters have power factor
corrected automatic battery charger. A battery temperature sensor is
included. Inverter changes to a battery charger when AC from utility or
engine generator is on. AC loads are switched from inverter to the utility
or generator while battery is charging.
The front pane features an
ON/OFF membrane switch, status indicator LEDs and a digital display for
kilowatts when inverting and amps when charging. Other controls are
protected by a snap-on cover to prevent settings from being accidentally
changed. Inverters can be series stacked for 120/240 volt AC output using
the cable supplied with each inverter.
Inverter uses about 25 watts
when on and no loads. This small amount of watts wastes your battery power.
The search mode allows inverter to idle down to about 5 watts. The inverter
will start up when a load is turned on. Start up sensitivity is adjustable.
AC surge
watts is double rated watts.
UPS
(uninterruptible power supply) capable with fast 20-40 millisecond transfer
time, 30 amp AC relay. Powder coated case. Mounts to wall or can sit on a
shelf.
11-15 volt
input and 22-30 volt input. 90-94% peak efficiency. 8½ x 7Ό x 21. 2 year

Lightweight, compact, efficient, 120 volt AC output, built-in
AC outlet. With a sine wave output, most stereos, TVs, Macintosh computers,
front load clothes washer, radio equipment and other electronics will operate
better than on modified square wave. Most copiers, laser printers a some
cordless tool battery chargers will be damaged on non-sine wave power.
Efficiency is 85-90%. Search mode not available. Protected for over voltage,
under voltage, high temperature, reverse polarity, shorts and overload.
Made in USA. 32/36, 48, 66 & 120 Volt DC available special order.
