Note:
The next generation of TSW and MSW inverter/chargers has come. The SW
and SWPLUS Series have been replaced by the new XW Series (visit
www.xantrex.com/xw for more info). Many of the older models are already
unavailable, being replaced by the new Xantrex product line. |

The result of new
ideas and technologies, the Trace SW Series II from Xantrex delivers
sine wave power without compromise. Now sine wave output with high
efficiency, high surge ability and low idle current draw is
available. More than just the finest inverter, with three
microprocessors and bi-directional power topology, it has features and
capabilities that previously were non-existent or available only as
separate products.

As
an Inverter:
1) Multiple step,
low distortion, sine wave output with up to 96% peak conversion
efficiency. Very low idle current draw allows high efficiency even
when powering small loads.
2) Two inverters can be operated in series to provide 120/240 VAC
three wire output with twice the power for 240 VAC loads. Requires
optional stacking interface cable.
3) Adjustable search mode can reduce idle power draw to 1 watt
when not operating AC loads.
4) Adjustable low battery cutout voltage with adjustable time
delay prevents damaging batteries.
5) Protection circuitry guards against over-current, short
circuit, over temperature, low battery and high battery
conditions. Includes islanding protection for utility connected
applications.
As a Battery Charger:
1) High efficiency, low current distortion design enables
higher charge output from small generators.
2) Three-stage, temperature compensated charging algorithm ensures
maximum battery charging life. Remote battery temperature probe is
standard. Includes manual equalize mode with adjustable settings.
3) Adjustable grid and generator size allows matching of charger
to the AC source.
4) Automatic "back-off" system prevents overloading of
generators or nuisance tripping of input breakers.
When connected to grid or generator, the SW Inverter synchronizes its
waveform to that of the AC source, locks to it and operated in
parallel. This ability, coupled with the bi-directional power
topology and micro-processor control, makes it possible for the unit to
offer multiple operating modes.
Generator Support Mode: When charging from a generator, the
generator's output voltage and current are monitored. If either
falls outside user adjustable limits, the unit sheds itself as a load
and then reverses the power flow if necessary. This delivers
energy from the batteries to the loads assisting the generator.
When operating two units in series at 240 VAC, one 120 VAC leg can be
charging while the other is supporting.
Standby Power Mode: Two AC inputs are provided--one for
generator and one for utility grid. When AC fails, transfer to
inverter power is no longer than 34 milliseconds. If the grid and
generator are connected, the unit can be set to start the generator
after the grid has failed. After grid returns, the generator is
automatically stopped. The inverter output is synchronized to the
grid and the grid is reconnected to the loads. Note:
generator must have the reciprocating circuitry to accommodate the SW
inverter.
Battery Voltage and Transfer Mode: If the batteries are
low, a low battery set point triggers connection to the grid.
Generator Start Mode: Automatic generator start features
are standard and user programmable. Gen start can be triggered by
wither battery voltage or load size connected. A "quiet
time" can be set to restrict generator operation unless absolutely
required. The start sequence is fully adjustable and is now
compatible with a greater variety of generator types. Generator
MUST be set up for remote starting and designed for unattended
operation.
Utility Interactive Mode: Operating as a bi-directional
battery charger, power from any source that tries to raise the batteries
above their programmed float voltage is delivered to the grid. A
GRID USAGE TIMER can be set to allow selling of electricity to the
utility only during prescribed hours. Sell back current is
adjustable. CAUTION: Utility intertie must have approval of
local utility company.
Peak Load Shaving Mode: (1) The sine wave series may
be programmed to operate from batteries during a specified period of the
day. Batteries may be charged during lower rate periods.
(2) During a programmable time of the day, power is delivered to
the grid from the batteries. An alternative (lower) adjustable
float voltage is employed to allow variable battery discharge depths.
Three user adjustable voltage-controlled signal relays are provided to
control charging sources and loads.
Selecting modes, enabling features and adjusting parameters are easily
accomplished by moving through a menu tree that is displayed on the
control panel's LCD read-out. Doubling as a meter, the LCD
displays inverter amps, input amps, load amps, battery volts DC and
inverter volts AC. Additionally, control panel LEDs report the
status of eight system conditions.

New
Series II Design
1) Easier to use
programming system with separate "User" and "Setup"
menus.
2) New backlight LCD display on control panel improves use in low
light conditions.
3) Improved AC wiring access and AC conduit provisions makes
installation easier.
4) New "soft start" systems allows inverter to run even
heavier loads and improves reliability.
5) Includes a new, easier to read universal owners manual that
covers all SW series II inverters.
6) Enhanced generator start system works with a greater variety of
generator types. |
