INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing Power Bank V-Series mobile power supply. The Fortador brand is the
eect of many years of experience and a response to the needs of our customers. Technology
enclosed in a modern housing provides more power and performance than ever before and
less failure. Fortador Power Bank V Series is an alternative to fuel or gas powered generators.
It generates no annoying sound or fumes, so it can be used in HACCAP conditions, healthcare
or rooms with limited ventilation. It allows you to work with a load of up to 3000 Watts. It is
charged by connecting to a standard 220V socket or solar panels installed on the roof of the car
or a photovoltaic system in the house, workshop or car wash. The advantage of this device is a
very small size while maintaining maximum power.
The device is equipped with components that allow for virtually lifetime operation. This is one
investment that allows you to benet for years from running on reliable equipment and free
electricity generated by solar panels or other sources of renewable energy like windmills or
water turbines.
The proprietary design and power management system allows for maintenance-free operation.
This exclusive model meets even the highest expectations by allowing you to charge and draw
electricity at the same time.
