Key Features
14 Freedom SW-RVC Owner's Guide
Key Features
The Freedom SW-RVC is a true sine wave inverter/charger that
can be used for recreational vehicle and commercial applications.
The Freedom SW-RVCs are designed to operate with a wide
variety of generators and are capable of operating in parallel with a
generator for short durations to assist with starting large loads.
The Freedom SW-RVC is a convenient combination of an
inverter, multistage battery charger, and transfer switch in one
electronic device.
nAs an inverter, the Freedom SW-RVC provides true sine
wave power for your microwave, entertainment system,
computer, and other loads. This power is identical to the AC
source provided from the utility grid (power company).
nSome of the benefits of true sine wave power include
consistent cooking in your microwave, handling of sensitive
loads such as your TV set, dimmer switches, and
appliances with speed controls.
nHighly versatile platform capable of series stacking for
120/240V line configurations and parallel stacking to
increase power levels.
nHigh efficiency true sine wave output to power sensitive
electrical and electronic equipment.
nSurge capacity to start difficult loads like refrigerators or
A/C compressors.
nPower factor-corrected (PFC) input minimizes AC input
current required for charging, increasing AC pass-through
capacity.
nAs a charger, it has high output, multistage charging
capability minimizing charging time.
nCapable of operating from 50 Hz and 60 Hz power source
by extending AC qualification frequency range. See ACIn
Settings on page 41.
IMPORTANT: With a dual line configuration, only the Line 1
Input needs to be energized in order to qualify the AC. Line
2 Input does not have to be powered with a single phase
system.
nTemperature-controlled, variable-speed internal cooling
fans. The fans turn on when the internal temperature
reaches 45°C (113°F) and reaches maximum speed at
70°C (158°F). The fan turns off when the internal
temperature falls to 40°C (104°F).
nDesigned with serviceability in mind via Xantrex Authorized
Service Centers (ASC).
nThe Freedom SW-RVC is RV-C protocol-enabled which
allows network compatibility and communication with other
RV-C devices.

Key Features
975-1056-01-01 15
Key Features Explained
Built-in Charge
Formulas
For the unit to perform at the highest level,
the batteries must be charged correctly.
The Freedom SW-RVC has optimized
algorithms for flooded, gel, and AGM
batteries.
Battery
Temperature
Sensor
Since battery temperature is a key factor in
correct charging, the charging formula must
be adjusted (automatically and in real time)
according to the actual battery temperature
to ensure that batteries are fully charged,
but not overcharged. For this reason, a
battery temperature sensor is included with
your Freedom SW-RVC and has
temperature compensated the charge
formula.
Manual
Equalization
Over a period of time, the cells in a flooded
battery can develop uneven chemical
states. This can result in a weak
(undercharged) cell which, in turn, can
reduce the overall capacity of the battery.
To improve the life and performance of a
non-sealed, flooded battery, the Freedom
SW-RVC’s multistage charging cycle
includes a manual equalize mode that can
be used, if recommended by the battery
manufacturer.
Dead Battery
Charging
Another feature that the Freedom SW-RVC
includes is dead battery charging. The
Freedom SW-RVC—unlike many
chargers—has the ability to recharge
batteries even if the battery voltage is very
low (5volts).

Key Features
16 Freedom SW-RVC Owner's Guide
Load Management The Freedom SW-RVC has a built-in
transfer relay that connects your inverter
output or AC input from the utility grid or
generator to your loads. Because the usual
AC power sources such as campground
outlets or small generators often have
limited current availability, having the
capability to manage your AC loads is
extremely valuable.
The Freedom SW-RVC provides a number
of features to facilitate this:
nThe charger is power factor corrected
to use AC current as efficiently as
possible. Minimizing the AC current
used by the charger means more
current is available for your AC
loads.
nFreedom SW-RVC has a power
share feature which prioritizes your
AC loads by reducing the charge
current in an attempt to limit the total
input current to less than the breaker
setting.
Occasionally, AC input sources have low
voltage. To avoid loading these weak
sources any further, the charger
automatically reduces its AC current draw
as the AC voltage approaches the
minimum acceptable level.

Key Features
975-1056-01-01 17
Stacking
Supports stacking of two inverter/chargers to increase capacity.
This also requires the installer to select a Master and Slave in
order for the inverters to stack. Two configurations of stacking are
supported: Parallel stacking and Series stacking.
Parallel Stacking Parallel stacking allows two
inverter/chargers to operate in parallel
thereby doubling the capacity in inverter
mode. The two inverters communicate over
the network and intelligently share the load
and to balance the load between the two
units. The primary Freedom SW-RVC
broadcasts pulses on the RV-C network to
synchronize operation between the other
paralleled unit. When AC loads are present,
both units produce power, effectively
sharing the load. When Load Sense is
enabled, only the primary unit produces the
AC output.
Series Stacking Two units can be configured to generate
120/240 Split-phase power for load
configurations that require both 120 and 240
volts. In this configuration, the AC source
must be split-phase as well.
Stack Charging
Two Freedom SW-RVCs synchronize charging stages to ensure
efficient charging of the battery bank. When a single unit
transitions from bulk to absorption so do all other units. In
absorption, all units must complete the absorption stage before
transitioning to the next stage. Note that units do not load share
when charging except during the bulk stage. The Freedom SW-
RVCs stop sharing charge current just before completing the bulk
stage. The units do not share charge current during the absorption
and float stages.
Each unit charges batteries based on the Max Charge Rate
setting and active internal (temperature-based) deratings.
If equalization is enabled on one or more devices capable of
equalization charging, only those devices perform an equalize
cycle after absorption. Other devices transition to float (if three-
stage charging is selected) or transition to AC pass-through (if
two-stage charging is selected).

Basic Protection Features
18 Freedom SW-RVC Owner's Guide
Generator Assist
The Freedom SW-RVC inverter/chargers can operate in tandem
with a generator (or shore power) to temporarily assist power
loads with large start-up demands such as air conditioners, water
pumps etc.
When the Gen Support mode is enabled and the generator’s or
shore power’s current capacity defined (in amps) is above the
GenSupport current threshold, the inverter will come on-line and
assist the generator or shore power with starting and operating the
load (drawing power from the battery). The battery bank must be
well charged in order for the inverter to engage this mode. For
more details, see Gen Support on page 42.
Basic Protection Features
The Freedom SW-RVC has the following protection features:
nOver temperature shutdown for critical components such as
the transformer and the power board
nBattery temperature sensor (BTS) failure/battery
temperature out-of-range fault protection
nDC output over voltage protection during charge mode
nAC transfer relay failure detection
nAC output overload and short circuit protection during invert
mode
nAC backfeedaprotection
nShort circuit protection for the BTS and communication
connector ports including protection from incorrectly
inserting the remote panel communication cable plug into
the BTS port and vice versa
The Battery Temperature Sensor (BTS) provides these
protection features:
nBattery over temperature charging protection preventing
battery charging at 60 °C (140 °F) or higher
nCharging voltage compensation based on the temperature
of the battery where the BTS is connected
aAn AC backfeed error occurs when the AC output of the inverter/charger is connected or routed back to
the inverter/charger’s AC input terminal or if the internal transfer relay fails.
