OutBack Power Systems has completed the additional
tests required by the UL 1741 standard for grid-tie applications
of the "G" series of the FX and VFX inverter/charger systems. In
addition to being able to “sell” power back to the utility (spinning
the meter backwards) the OutBack inverter system is also able to
power the customer’s AC loads during power outages without exposing
utility line workers to hazards. The OutBack GTFX and GVFX series
are 2000 to 3600 watt, 24 and 48 VDC, continuous rated modular sine
wave inverter/charger which are now able to be used for grid-tied
applications with power sources such as PV (solar electric) and
other renewable energy sources. Both the GTFX and GVFX series are
complete power conversion systems - a DC/AC inverter, battery charger
and an AC transfer switch system integrated together as a single
system component.
The GTFX models incorporate a unique die-cast aluminum,
sealed housing, which keeps the electronic components cool while
protecting them from the major causes of inverter failure - corrosion,
dust, insect and animal damage - even temporary submersion and pressure
washing. All of the GTFX models also now include standard an external
cooling fan to improve operation in high ambient temperature conditions
and increased efficiency at high power.
