The RD Series Inverter/Charger is a new generation modified sine wave inverter designed specifically for renewable energy use. The RD Series is powerful, easy-to-use, and best of all, cost effective.
Power Factor Corrected (PFC) Charger: Our PFC charger is built into all of our inverter chargers. It uses less energy from a generator than a standard charger – using 25-30% less AC current than standard chargers.
Safe and reliable: The RD Series is ETL Listed to the stringent requirements of UL 1741 (USA only), ensuring that the inverter is safe and reliable.
Easy-to-install: Install the RD Series in four easy steps: simply connect the inverter’s output to your distribution circuits or electrical panel, connect your power cable (AC) to the inverter’s easy-to-reach terminal block, connect the batteries, and switch on the power.
