Freedom HW Inverter/Charger

 

Congratulations on your purchase of the Freedom HW Inverter/Charger

 

(Freedom HW). As part of the Xantrex Inverter/Charger family, the

 

Freedom HW gives you quality power, worry-free operation, and

 

outstanding reliability. The Freedom HW’s integrated inverting–charging

 

functions and numerous power management features make it ideal for

 

recreational and commercial vehicles.

Quality Power

The Freedom HW provides up to 1000 watts of continuous modified sine

 

wave power from a battery bank. It is designed to handle loads such as a

 

600-watt microwave, TVs, VCRs, and midsized power tools.

 

The Freedom HW’s high surge capability lets you handle many hard-to-

 

start loads, including large TVs and small refrigerators.

 

The built-in transfer switch automatically transfers between inverter

 

power and incoming AC power (shore power) to ensure power is always

 

available.

 

The built-in charger automatically charges the battery bank when the

 

Freedom HW is connected to incoming AC power (shore power).

Comprehensive

The Freedom HW’s built-in protection features safeguard your batteries

Protection

and equipment to give you worry-free operation:

 

• The low battery voltage alarm and shutdown prevents your

 

batteries from becoming completely discharged.

 

• The three-stage charging capability ensures that batteries receive

 

the “best” charge with minimal wear and tear.

 

• If the Freedom HW detects low AC voltage, it switches

 

automatically to Inverter mode and supplies your equipment with

 

modified sine wave power derived from the batteries. When AC

 

voltage returns within range again, the Freedom HW allows the AC to

 

pass through to your loads and automatically begins to recharge the

 

batteries.

Reliable

If incoming shore power fails, the Freedom HW automatically detects the

Back-up

failure and instantly becomes an independent power source that supplies

 

quality AC to your loads.
