Reliable Emergency Backup Power
Congratulations on your purchase of the PowerVerter
APSX700HF gives you a convenient, reliable source of AC power anywhere and anytime you need it.
It keeps connected equipment up and productive through all utility power problems (blackouts,
brownouts and high voltages) by inverting DC power from user-supplied batteries into AC power. When
utility power is present, the APSX700HF automatically passes through power to your equipment while
simultaneously recharging your connected battery bank. Built-in surge suppression provides connected
equipment with additional protection. The APSX700HF is the clean, quiet emergency backup power
alternative to gas generators—with no fuel, fumes, or noise to deal with!

  • Page 2: Important Safety Instructions

    Important Safety Instructions SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS! This manual contains important instructions and warnings that should be followed during the installation, operation and storage of this product. Failure to comply will void the warranty. Location Warnings • Install your Inverter/Charger (whether for a stationary or mobile application) in a location or compartment that minimizes exposure to heat, dust, direct sunlight and moisture.
  • Page 3: Features

    Features Operating Mode Switch: controls Inverter/ Charger operation. When this switch is set to “AUTO”, connected equipment receives constant, uninterrupted utility AC power, with simultaneous charging of connected batteries. The “CHARGE ONLY” setting prevents unwanted battery rundown when there is no need for battery backup. Connected batteries are recharged.
  • Page 4: Battery Selection

    Select a battery or system of batteries that will provide your Inverter/Charger with proper DC voltage and an adequate amp-hour capacity to power your application. Even though Tripp Lite Inverter/Chargers are highly efficient at DC-to-AC inversion, their rated output capacities are limited by the total amp- hour capacity of connected batteries plus the output of an alternator when one is used.
  • Page 5: Mounting

    Inverter/Charger and connected systems. Tripp Lite recommends that you permanently mount your Inverter/Charger in the configuration illustrated below. The APSX700HF features integrated mounting brackets at the front and rear of the unit.
  • Page 6: Battery Connection

    Series Connection: The total voltage of all connected batteries must match the Inverter/Charger's Nominal DC Input Voltage (12 V). Example: 6 V + 6 V = 12 V. Contact Tripp Lite technical support for assistance with battery connection configurations. 12 Volts...
  • Page 7: Operation

    AC Connection To avoid overloading your Inverter/Charger, be sure to match the power requirements of the equipment you plan to run at any one time (add the total watts) with the continuous output capacity of your Inverter/Charger (see the Specifications section). When figuring the power requirements of your equipment, do not confuse continuous wattage with peak wattage ratings.
  • Page 8: "Battery" Indicator Lights

    Operation (continued) “OPERATION” Indicator Lights “LINE” Green Indicator: If the operating mode switch is set to “AUTO”, this light will illuminate continuously while connected equipment is receiving continuous AC power from a utility/generator source. If the operating mode switch is set to “CHARGE ONLY”, this light will flash to alert you that the unit's inverter is disabled and will not supply AC power when utility/generator power is unavailable or unsafe for connected equipment.
