Invert Power Derating vs. Ambient Temperature

The inverter/charger delivers up to 3000 watts of sine wave output power. See figure below for temperature derating information.

Maximum power available for at least one hour

Ambient Temperature (°C)

Figure 28 Invert Power Derating versus Ambient Temperature

If the unit is in elevated ambient temperature above 60 °C, you are required to reduce power draw according to the figure to avoid over-temperature shutdown.

Charger Mode

Charger output (bulk mode) is 150 amps DC to 40 °C ambient. In higher ambients, the charger will automatically derate (reduce output current) to maintain internal temperatures at a safe level. Output at 60 °C ambient is approximately 75 amps.
