Modified sinewave inverters with charger available for 12 Volt DC input from Magnum Energy!
Founded by the same people that introduced the Trace Engineering Inverters in 1985, Magnum Inverters offer premium performance at economical prices. Ideal for RV, small rural cottages and marine use. The Magnum inverters are perfect for RV'ers or rural residents wishing to run a generator or other 120 volt AC hookup for backup power. Magnum's innovation is a Power Factor Corrected Sinewave Charger that works equally well on low generator or shorepower voltages and uses significantly less AC amps at full output. For example, Magnum Chargers need only 15 amps of AC power to deliver 100 DC amps of charge current, compared to 23 amps with competitive products.
Magnums include "Next Generation" battery chargers offering to reduce generator run time by up to 40% over competitive products. The result for RV and Marine users: more quiet time and less fuel. They have easy-to-access AC and DC connections for quick installation. The optional remote is attractive and easy to use, yet allows full access to inverter setup parameters. Their rugged design offers unsurpassed reliability and all models are marine compatible with corrosion resistant materials. Product Features
- Efficient:The sine wave efficiently charges your batteries even at low AC voltage, while the modified sine wave inverter keeps the cost down. Additionally, the battery temperature sensor works with the charger for optimum battery charging.
- Choices: The ME Series comes in three power models in 12 volt configurations, allowing you to choose the model that is right for you.
- Upgradeable memory: The inverter is designed with Flash programming for easy memory upgrades
- Versatile mounting: Mount the ME Series on a shelf, bulkhead, or even upside down.
- Lightweight: The lightweight aluminum base and cover also provides noise reduction and corrosion resistance
- Multiple ports: The ME series provides multiple ports, including an RS485 communication port for network expansion and a remote port.
- Accessible design: The extra large AC access cover with terminal screw block and 360 DC connection terminals with covers make this inverter more accessible when it needs to be
- Convenient switches: The ME Series comes with an on/off inverter-mounted switch with an easy-to-read LED indicator.
- Expanded transfer relay: 60 Amp transfer service is available on all models
