Ideal for mobile and residential systems where space-saving, efficiency, and performance matter.

Features:

  • True sine wave inverter, adaptive battery charger, and AC transfer switch in one unit.
  • Supports up to 6 units in parallel or 3-phase configuration.
  • PowerControl prevents generator or shore overload by managing power use.
  • PowerAssist boosts limited shore/generator power with battery support during peaks.
  • Four-stage adaptive charging for Lithium, AGM, Gel, and Flooded batteries.
  • Dual battery charging for starter or auxiliary batteries.
  • High start-up power for heavy loads like LED lamps and power tools.
  • Search Mode reduces power consumption during low/no load.
  • Programmable alarm relay and remote on/off control.
  • Easy on-site setup with DIP switches; advanced remote monitoring via GX devices and VRM portal.
