Tripp Lite's PV1250FC Heavy-Duty Power Inverter Offers:
- Computer-grade AC power from a vehicle battery1
- 250 watts continuous output power; up to 2500 watts peak powerC
- lean, quiet operation—no fumes or noiseH
- eavy-duty construction for harsh environments
The PV1250FC efficiently converts DC power from a vehicle battery into 120V AC power for any type of equipment, from heavy-duty drills, saws and pumps to computers and sensitive monitoring equipment. The PV1250FC provides safe, stable, AC output power to help connected equipment perform at its peak. A frequency control feature ensures that devices dependent on tightly regulated AC line frequency, such as computers, VCRs and DVD/CD players, receive clean computer-grade power.
The PV1250FC features two sets of diagnostic LEDs to indicate load level (high, medium and low) and battery charge (high, medium and low).
Extended Peak Surge Power
Many tools, appliances and printers require extra power for start-up. Others, such as refrigerators and pumps, have fluctuating power demands. The PV1250FC accommodates these peak surge demands by providing up to 200% more output power than its continuous rating of 1250 watts. In OverPower mode, the PV1250FC can deliver 1875 watts for up to an hour, providing ample reserve power to keep tools and equipment running longer. In DoubleBoost mode, it can deliver 2500 watts for up to 10 seconds to support power-hungry equipment start-ups and motor cycling requirements.
Installation and Equipment Connection
The PV1250FC features integral mounting slots for permanent installation on any rigid, horizontal surface, such as the bed of a pickup truck. Connecting the PV1250FC to your battery system is quick and easy with readily available user-supplied cables. AC power is provided to connected equipment via two standard 5-15R receptacles on the front of the unit. The PV1250FC is also equipped with an RJ45 port for connection of an optional Remote Control LED/Switch Module (Tripp Lite model APSRM4), enabling you to control and monitor the inverter from virtually anywhere within a vehicle.
Automatic Overload Shutdown
To prevent damage to the inverter and connected equipment, the PV1250FC will shut down automatically if an overload is detected at the inverter outlets. The red Load Level Indicator LED will flash to alert you that an overload has occurred.
Heavy-Duty Construction
The PV1250FC features a rugged, moisture-resistant polycarbonate housing that's built to withstand vibration and impact—ideal for use at remote worksites, in trucks, RVs and other vehicles, on boats or anywhere that reliable AC power is needed.
