2001 OutBack Power started by a passionate group of
engineers whom wanted to bring power conversion
electronics technology into the 21st century.
This small startup quickly grew by off ering innovative and
well designed solutions to renewable energy problems.
OutBack listened to their customers and made many of the
changes that were suggested, creating a truly customer fo-
cused company in the power conversion electronics industry.
2002 OutBack introduces its fi rst sealed sinewave in-
verter/charger -
the FX2024, with resounding success.
This single model changed the way people looked at system
design by off ering unprecedented fl exibility in system design
and expansion while the sealed construction allowed for uses
which previously would have been considered too “extreme”
for other inverter/chargers.
OutBack releases the MX60 solar MPPT charge controller
redefi ning performance and value.
This revolutionary product changed the way solar systems
were being installed and quickly gained a reputation for get-
ting the most power possible from a PV array - often making
it more expensive to not use one.
2003 OutBack launches the fi rst of the vented versions of
the FX series inverter/chargers.
These VFX models were introduced in direct response to our
customer’s requests providing higher power at a similar price
as the sealed counterpart.
OutBack launches the PS2 value - priced system integration
accessories.
This line of accessories addressed the needs of our customers
for competitively priced system integration accessories for
smaller systems.
2004 OutBack releases the world’s most effi cient
grid-interactive inverter/charger.
These models raise the bar for performance and value for
battery-connected grid-interactive inverter/charger systems.
OutBack introduces the PS1 fully integrated grid-interactive
power system.
This unique system sets a new standard for system
integration, performance and ease of installation in
grid-interactive applications.
