AIMS Power 3KW 12VDC 120VAC Low Frequency Inverter
The AIMS Power 3000 Watt 12 Volt Low Frequency Inverter Charger is a versatile and reliable solution for powering a wide range of tools and appliances. This dual-function inverter not only converts DC power stored in batteries to usable AC electricity but also includes a powerful built-in 100 amp battery charger. Whether you’re looking for backup power for an off-grid home or business, electricity for a mobile office, or power for camping equipment, this inverter has you covered.
Dual Functionality: Inverter and Charger
This 3000 watt inverter charger combines the functions of an inverter and a battery charger into a single unit. It transforms DC power from batteries into AC power to run various tools and appliances. Additionally, the integrated 100 amp battery charger can use AC power from the grid or a generator to recharge your battery bank. The battery-type selector on the top of the unit allows you to adjust the voltage provided to the bank, ensuring optimal charging for different battery types.
Ideal for Various Applications
Popular applications for this inverter include off-grid home or business backup power, mobile business setups, and vehicle upfitting for RVs and boats. With its ability to accept 12 volts DC, this inverter is perfect for systems that use a 12-volt battery. The unit outputs 120 volts AC, making it compatible with most household and industrial appliances.
High Surge Capacity and Direct Connect Terminal Block
One of the standout features of the AIMS Power 3000 Watt Inverter is its direct connect terminal block, which provides a 300% surge capacity for up to 20 seconds. This allows the inverter to handle startup surges from appliances like refrigerators, freezers, microwaves, and power tools. When using the terminal block, the inverter can peak at 9000 watts, making it capable of running demanding equipment with high startup surges.
Low Frequency Design for Cleaner Energy
The low frequency design of this inverter ensures a lower level of total harmonic distortion (THD) during the DC to AC conversion process. This results in cleaner energy transfer, increased efficiency, and quieter operation. The marine-coated boards protect the inverter from dust and water vapor, making it suitable for mobile and coastal applications.
Reliable and Versatile Performance
This inverter features a GFCI power outlet with two receptacles for easy access to AC power. It also includes an automatic transfer switch that ensures uninterrupted power supply during an outage by switching to battery power when grid power is lost. The optional remote port allows you to control the inverter from a distance, adding to its convenience and versatility.
