1. Introduction
Thank you for your purchase of this Xantrex Sine
Wave Inverter. As a high quality, true sine wave output
inverter, you can expect exceptional performance and
years of dependable operation. The true sine wave AC
output from the inverter ensures all AC loads operating
from the unit perform efficiently and correctly. Since these
loads were designed to operate from true sine wave voltage,
you can expect these loads to operate the same as if
operating from grid/utility supplied power. In some cases,
the true sine wave output from the Xantrex inverter is
even superior to the power supplied by your utility
company.
To get the most out of your Sine Wave Inverter, carefully
read and follow the instructions in this guide. Pay special
attention to the Important Safety Instructions and to the
CAUTION and WARNING statements found throughout
the manual and on the product. Please retain all packaging.
Should you have any questions before, during, or after
installation, please contact Xantrex.

1.1 Sine Wave Inverter Key Features
The Sine Wave Inverter utilizes advanced high frequency
switching technology in the power conversion process.
The circuits are similar to those used in power supplies
for computers and other electronic equipment. This
technology offers several benefits:
Xantrex Sine Wave Inverter Owner's Manual
•
Light weight: for easy installation
•
Totally silent: for quiet operation
•
High surge capability: for "hard-to-start" AC loads
See Section 10 (Specifications) for complete product
specifications.
1.1.1 Inverter Function
When connected properly and the power switch is turned
to the (I) position, the inverter draws power from a battery
and delivers a true sine wave AC output voltage. If the
battery voltage is within the operating range of the unit,
the inverter will continue to deliver AC power to the
loads connected. High and low battery shutdowns will
engage if the battery voltage falls out of the specified
range of operation (10–16 VDC on 12 V models, 20–32
VDC on 24 V models).
1.1.2 Control Panel
The Control Panel displays operating information so you
can monitor the status of the Inverter and your batteries.

ARNING
Note that in ( ) (Bypass) position the front
panel switch does NOT turn off all voltages
inside the unit. This control only deactivates
the AC conversion circuitry. On AC hardwire/
transfer relay versions any utility voltage
present on the AC input terminals will be
present on the AC output terminals.
This panel can be removed and re-attached in different
orientations so the information is directed at you in the
most convenient fashion, for all recommended mounting
configurations. With the optional Interface Panel, the
display can be fully removed from the base chassis and
remotely located in the place of your choice (e.g. on the
dash of your vehicle).
1.1.3 Automatic Transfer Switch
Your Sine Wave Inverter may be equipped with a transfer
relay if specified prior to purchase. The transfer relay serves
two purposes: 1) allows the AC output of the inverter to
be wired into an existing AC system as a source of power
and 2) allows the Sine Wave Inverter to automatically
become the source of power should your utility source
fail.
When utility AC power fails, the transfer relay is de-
energized and the load is automatically transferred to the
inverter output within 20–30 milliseconds. With the
POWERSAVE feature enabled (recommended for reducing
standby power consumption), AC output from the inverter
may be delayed for up to 2½ seconds. Once AC utility is
restored, the relay energizes and the load is automatically
reconnected to AC utility.
Identifying Models With Transfer Switches
1) Check the UPC code on the product box. Units with
transfer switches have UPC codes that end with these five

2) If there is an AC outlet on the front of the unit, it is
not equipped with an internal transfer switch.
3) For Sine Wave Inverters with hardwire connections, you
can identify whether your unit has an internal transfer
switch by removing the cover on the AC wiring
compartment and checking the label above the terminal
block inside.
If your unit has a label similar to one of these two labels,
it has an internal transfer switch:
Units with this label do not have an internal transfer
switch:
