Tripp Lite APS 1024, APS 2012VR manual Battery Charger, Automatic Overload Protection, Load Sense

Stage 2	Advanced, 3-Stage
	Battery Charger
Absorption

Congratulations! You'vepurchased the most advanced, feature-rich integrated inverter~battery charger on the market. Your APS provides your equipment with utility-suppliedAC power when it is available, and during blackouts, overvoltages and brownouts, your APS automatically switches over to an external battery source to power connected equipment with voltage and frequency- controlled AC power. In addition to reliable APS performance, your model features:

CHARGING""'dP OFlLE

Your APS rechargesyour battery faster than conventional chargers because its three-stage charger profile (Bulk, Absorption and Float) are optimized, regardless-of-the type of battery you._^^.--use (Wet or Gel).* In addition, the ad- vanced charging system protects againstover-chargeandover-discharge

to ensure a longer service life from your battery.

Automatic Overload Protection

If you overload your APS, it will automatically protect itself and your valuable batteries from damage.

Frequency-Controlled Output (Invert Mode)

Your APS controls its output frequency so frequency-sensitive equipment can operate properly.

;Load 'Sense

;Your APS conserves battery power by shutting down its inverter when it is not supporting a

load. You can choose at what minimum load your APS will activate its inverter.

Multi-Function Indicator Lights

!Several sets of multifunction indicator lights keep you constantly informed of battery charge levels, fault conditions and APS operation.

i. Multi-Operation Switches

An array of user-configurable switches gives you convenient options when operating your APS. You can select the voltage level at which your APS'sinverter will turn on to maximize equipment protection and minimize battery drain; set your APS for maximum charging efficiency with your battery type; even set up your APS for remote control operation.

Automatic Voltage Regulation (Select models only)

Load Sharing (Select models only)

Select APS models can be set to limit their own charging functions so they can charge their batteries at the quickest rate possible without overloading their power input circuits.

High Efficiency Output

Your APS'sadvanced circuitryproduces a more efficient DC-to-ACconversion, minimizingenergy loss. This allows you to run connected equipment longer between battery charges. The APS will maintain this highly-efficient output even as the battery charge decreases.

Frequency Controlled Inverter Output

All APS models feature Frequency Controlled Inverter Output which allows devices dependent

I on AC line frequency (such as computers, VCRs, CD players, tape recorders, clocks and turntables) to operate properly. Your APS is therefore ideal for any of these applications:

I
I	computers	kitchen appliances	CD players
	microwaves	refrigerators	VCRs
I	sump pumps	electric motors	lights
	power tools	tape recorders	turntables
I
	and more!

'VR'APS models regulate incoming AC power, 'boosting'or 'cutting' thevoltage to keep your

:equipment running through brownouts and overvoltages without draining battery power.
