Description
Tripp Lite's APS1250 DC-to-AC inverter with automatic 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 1250
watts of continuous 120V AC power to 2 AC outlets from any 12V battery or automotive DC source. OverPower
inverter output feature temporarily provides up to 150% of the continuous output for 1-60 minutes and
DoubleBoost inverter output feature delivers up to 200% of the continuous output for up to 10 seconds, providing
the extra power needed to cold start heavy-duty tools and motorized equipment. 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, 30 amp charging system. In UPS mode, the APS system responds to blackouts and voltage
fluctuations with a near instantaneous automatic transfer to battery-derived AC output. Includes a set of high
current DC input terminals for simple installation (user supplies batteries and cabling - see owner's manual for
recommendations). Passes sine wave utility or generator power during battery charging and UPS line power
operation, plus efficient PWM sine wave AC output in inverter and UPS backup modes. Reliable large
transformer design, with frequency control powers resistive electronic loads or large inductive motors,
compressors and other items with high current needs on startup. Optional APSRM4 wired remote power switch
with full status LEDs provides remote power inverter on/off switching and continuous status information
(APSRM4 sold separate). 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.
NOTE: To protect against high current draw that may occur during inverter failure, a fuse link rated at 200a
should be positioned no more than 18" from the APS1250's battery in the positive line.
Applications
Versatile inverter/charger system
with auto-transfer switching
serves as an automotive inverter
for RVs, over-the-road trucking,
conversion vans and fleet service
vehicles; a standalone alternative
power source for off-grid,
alternative energy or export
applications and as an
uninterruptible power supply
(UPS) for items compatible with a
16.6 millisecond transfer time.
NOTE: For sump pump
applications, Tripp Lite
recommends its "UT" Utility Truck
Inverter/Chargers.
