Description
Tripp Lite's APS2424 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 2400 watts of continuous 120V AC power from any 24V 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 hardwire AC input is energized, commercial power passes through to connected equipment and the battery set is
recharged via 3 stage, 14/55 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 utilty 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/SLA battery types and selectable line to battery power transfer
voltages.
 
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.
