TSW

The Apollo Solar TSW inverter/chargers include a true sine wave inverter, a battery charger, and AC transfer switch in a compact modular housing. These inverters provide field-selectable 120/240VAC split-phase AC power at 60Hz or 230VAC at 50Hz. Multiple TSW inverters can be stacked for increased power output for larger systems, and 3 inverters can be stacked for three-phase power. Apollo's integration hardware can be used to provide a clean, compact, NEC compliant power system. The inverters have on-board system monitoring, and when coupled with Apollo's MPPT charge controllers, the system provides PV array control and battery state of charge metering.

The TSW series inverters provide a 120/240 volt AC split-phase input and output. The output provides 240 volts for well pumps, appliances, or shop tools while providing 120 volts for standard circuits. The input can accept the utility line or 240-volt AC generators. The output can be wired for single 230/240VAC output or for single 120VAC output at twice the current. Internal switches allow the option to select 230VAC or 240VAC and 50Hz or 60Hz. In 120/240VAC split-phase configuration, either side of the output line can supply up to 75% of the total load. Over 200% of the rated TSW power is available to allow for surges for short periods, such as starting a 3-HP motor, without interrupting sensitive computer loads. At the same time, the TSW inverters can be wired in parallel to provide additional output current for larger systems up to 32kW of power output at 120/240VAC split-phase.

The high-current battery-charging circuit is power-factor corrected and optimizes the efficient use of energy from generator or utility line input. The 4-stage charging algorithm — Bulk, Absorb, Float, Equalize — maximizes both battery life and storage capacity.

Monitoring of energy used, battery state-of-charge, and system performance is included in the Apollo TSW inverters. The two-line LCD shows all major parameters and adjusts to allow horizontal and vertical inverter installation. The TSW's ASNET port allows networking capability between multiple units as well as access to the T80/T80HV MPPT Turbocharger PV controllers. Remote system monitoring on a local Ethernet and/or on the internet is provided via the Apollo Solar Communications Gateway via the Apollo Solar GSM Modem even when telephone land line is unavailable. See Charge Controllers section for more info on the Apollo communications equipment.

Dimensions: 22.5" x 9"x 7.25". The TSW is UL 1741 certified and carries a standard 5-year warranty. CSA C22.2 No.107.1-01 certified.
