Shaefer Adds Pure Sine Wave Inverters with 2KVA in 1U Rackmount Design

Schaefer, Inc. announced that its line of pure sine wave inverter products now boast what the company claims is the only 2KVA product in the market that is packaged in a slim, 1U rackmount design. Highly efficient and reliable, the pure sine wave output of the AEP-A2000R Series is claimed to offer benefits over modified or quasi-sine wave units by delivering "clean" output power for powering sensitive loads and for improving ac equipment performance.

The AEP-A2000R Series is available in three standard input configurations of 12, 24 and 48Vdc. Outputs are available in 115 or 230Vac (50/60Hz) versions, which are regulated to ±3% or better. A built-in, 4-6µs automatic bypass switch allows for redundant operation from utility power if the dc supply drops out.

All models in the AEP-A2000R Series feature comprehensive circuit and overload protection with easy to read, user-friendly digital displays and alarms to indicate low input voltage, short circuit, input overvoltage, over temperature, overload and low battery. The display also indicates voltage, amperage, power and temperature. Efficiency is 86 – 92%, depending upon the model selected. The extended operating temperature of –30 to +60°C allows for installation in even the most extreme environments. EMI is minimized for reduced impact on other sensitive equipment.

The compact, 1U, rackmount design is claimed to be rugged and well-suited for industrial, utility, satellite, military, computer, communications, emergency vehicle, marine, and general backup power applications. The slim size of 16" x 19" x 1.73" (d x w x h) fits easily into 1U racks.

AEP-A2000R pricing is from $1062.00 at 100 pieces, with significant OEM quantity discounts. Delivery is stock to 8 weeks ARO.
