APS1012SW

Position a 200A fuse link less than 18 in. from the battery in the positive line to protect against high-
current draw that may occur during inverter failure. Do not install this unit in the same compartment as
non-sealed batteries.
1000W PowerVerter APS 12VDC 120V
Inverter/Charger with Pure Sine-Wave Output,
Hardwired
MODEL NUMBER: APS1012SW
Portable 1000W power source for power tools, computers, audio/video components and other sensitive
electronics as a vehicle inverter, standalone AC power source or extended-run UPS. Ideal for mobile,
emergency and remote sites.
Description
The APS1012SW 1000W PowerVerter APS 12V DC 120V AC Inverter/Charger is a reliable power source
for a wide variety of power tools, computers, audio/video components and other sensitive electronics at
mobile, emergency and remote sites. With no fumes, fuel or excess noise, it’s an excellent alternative to
generator power.
The DC-to-AC pure sine-wave inverter delivers network-grade power to sensitive electronics. Its automatic
line-to-battery transfer switch and integral charging system allow the unit to work as a vehicle inverter,
standalone AC power source or extended-run UPS. It delivers 1000W of continuous power or 2000W of
peak power up to 10 seconds during equipment startup or cycling. An automatic overload detector,
cooling fan and resettable AC circuit breaker protect the unit from damage.
Designed for easy installation in RVs, fleet vehicles and emergency vehicles, the APS1012SW converts
stored power from a user-supplied battery to standard household current for unlimited runtime in heavy-
load conditions. When powered by an external 120V AC source, the unit keeps the user-supplied battery
charged via a three-stage 4/40A selectable charging system while simultaneously delivering conditioned,
pure sine-wave AC power to connected equipment.

Owner’s manual
1 / 4
When used as a UPS, the APS1012SW responds to blackouts and brownouts with an automatic,
instantaneous transfer to battery-derived, pure sine-wave AC power. LEDs on the side of the unit indicate
battery level, overload status and inverter operation.
