The Powersine inverter-charger recharges the house batteries when AC power (from grid or generator) is available at the input. The device also allows any surplus AC power to pass through and power downstream AC loads, such as a television or microwave oven. When there is no AC power available, the unit inverts DC battery power into clean AC electricity. All this is done automatically and the AC transfer switch operates extremely fast, not disturbing any AC loads connected to the output.

The device has an automatic standby function which reduces the already small no-load power consumption by an extra 70%. Furthermore, the Powersine Combi is equipped with a TBSLink port to connect to a TBS Remote Control or to a Windows device for easy step by step configuration and readout through the TBS Dashboard software.

The Powersine Combi offers many innovative features like AC Input Power Boost, which temporarily assists weak AC input sources when more power is needed than available. This for example, allows the use of a smaller generator which reduces the overall system costs. Another feature is AC Input Current Limit, which limits the maximum current consumed from the AC input source by the Powersine Combi in charger mode.

The Powersine combi devices are well known thanks to their high efficiency and robust design. Moreover, these inverter-chargers are equipped a powerful 4-stage battery charger. Just like the regular inverters, the inverter-chargers of TBS Electronics are all protected against high or low battery voltage, high temperature, overload and short circuit.

Also available are a fully configurable alarm relay output and a unique trigger input, that can convert external trigger commands into a number of Powersine Combi status changes. All this is combined in a very compact, yet installer friendly unit.

The recently released ‘S’ version of this Powersine Combi range adds a number of improvements and features like:

– parallel (stacking-) capability to increase the total output power level of the inverter, charger and AC transfer relay sections

– easier battery type selection

– maximum charge current now also selectable by DIP switch instead of only via remote or TBS Dashboard software

– more charge programs to support even more battery types/models

– several internal improvements
