Tripp Lite PowerVerter APSINT2424 User manual

2400W APS INT Series 24VDC 230V
Inverter/Charger with Auto-Transfer Switching,
Hardwired
MODEL NUMBER: APSINT2424
Portable 2400W power source for any type of equipment from power tools to computers as a vehicle
inverter, standalone AC power source or extended-run UPS. Ideal for RVs, commercial and fleet vehicles
and emergency vehicles.
Description
The APSINT2424 2400W APS INT Series 24V DC 230V AC Inverter/Charger is a reliable power source
for a wide variety of equipment ranging from power tools and pumps to portable lighting and computer
equipment in heavy-load conditions. With no fumes, fuel or excess noise, it’s an excellent alternative to
generator power.
The DC-to-AC inverter features an automatic line-to-battery transfer switch and integrated charging
system that allow it to work as a vehicle inverter, standalone AC power source or extended-run UPS. It
delivers 2400W of continuous power, 3600W up to one hour, or 4800W of peak power up to 10 seconds
during equipment startup or cycling. An automatic overload detector, cooling fan and resettable AC circuit
breakers protect the unit from damage.
Designed for easy installation in RVs, commercial and fleet vehicles, emergency vehicles and construction
equipment, the APSINT2424 converts stored power from any 24V battery or automotive DC source to
safe, stable, computer-grade AC power for unlimited runtime. When hardwired to an external 230V AC
source, the unit keeps the user-supplied battery charged via a three-stage 30A charging system while
simultaneously delivering AC power to connected equipment.
When used as a UPS, the APSINT2424 responds to blackouts and brownouts with an automatic,
instantaneous transfer to battery-derived AC output. LEDs on the unit indicate AC/DC operational modes,
overload status, DC voltage level, shutdown status and system fault status.

Output (Watts) 2400
Continuous Output Capacity (Watts) 2400
Peak Output Capacity (Watts) 4800
Output Voltage Regulation LINE POWER (AC): Maintains 230V nominal sine wave output from line power source. INVERTER POWER (AC):
Maintains PWM sine wave output voltage of 230 VAC (+/-5%).
Output Frequency Regulation 50 Hz (+/- 0.3 Hz)
Overload Protection Includes 10A input breaker dedicated to the charging system and 15A output breaker for AC output loads.
INPUT
Nominal Input Voltage(s) Supported 230V AC
Recommended Electrical Service DC INPUT: Requires 24VDC input source capable of delivering 112A for the required duration (when used at full
continuous capacity - DC requirements increase during OverPower and DoubleBoost operation). For automotive
applications, professional hardwire installation with 300A minimum battery system fusing is recommended.
Maximum Input Amps / Watts DC INPUT: Full continuous load - 112A at 24VDC. AC INPUT: 17 amps at 230VAC with full inverter and charger
load (7A max charger-only / combined input load to support charger and AC output is automatically controllable to
66%-33%-0% based on AC output loading using the charger limiting set points - see manual for setting instructions)
Input Connection Type DC INPUT: Set of 2 DC bolt-down terminals. AC INPUT: Hardwire via built in junction box with cover plate
