Built with a 48-Volt DC input, this inverter performs with very little power loss. Users receive a notable increase in efficiency in large systems when compared to using inverters that accept 12-Volt or 24-Volt. This can be an attractive feature for sustainability lovers looking to live as efficiently as possible and backed by an ETL certification to UL 1741 standards and 2 year warranty and tech support. The most common use for this inverter is emergency backup power or off-grid systems for residences, businesses and remote power needs. You'll always be prepared for the next power outage with access to 12,000-Watt of continuous power and 36,000-Watt of surge (for up to 20-seconds). AIMS has added a pump output for inductive loads providing a smoother start up for motors and pumps. The auto-generator start port is also a great feature for emergency backup power, as it will automatically kick on your generator when it senses your battery bank getting low. ne of the most sought-after features this inverter has is the direct-connect terminal block, which allows users to surpass the 8,000/12,000-Watt capacity and harness its 300% surge power (up to 24,000/36,000-Watt for 20-seconds as previously noted).
