Xantrex Technology IP1012 AL Battery Charger User Manual


 
Introduction
1–4 975-0337-01-01
Low voltage shutdown
The inverter shuts off when your batteries reach a predetermined
voltage set in the microprocessor to protect batteries from permanent
damage. Low voltage shutdown also monitors frequency and voltage,
and protects against overload, short circuits and over-temperature.
Automatic shutdown after 8 hours for loads less than 15 ±5 watts
This feature prevents the inverter from draining the batteries if it is
left on without a load.
Charger
features
The IP1012 AL offers the following charger features:
3-stage charging with 50 amps maximum charging current for 12V
battery type when shorepower is connected, to ensure your batteries
are always charged
Automatic transfer to invert mode
When the AC shorepower cord is disconnected, the unit automatically
switches to invert mode. When AC shorepower is available again, the
inverter automatically switches to charging/pass-through mode.
Load management capability which temporarily reduces charging
current to the batteries when a large AC load is applied to the inverter
output. This capability helps reduce the chance of tripping the
shorepower breaker.
