OutBack GVFX Series Sine Wave Inverter Grid-tie Cat. No. GVFX Weight 62 lbs | |
The GVFX models uses the same die-cast aluminum
housing but is not sealed - outside air is drawn through the
electronics to allow higher power ratings and better performance in
high ambient conditions. The air intake of the inverter includes a
removable, washable filter and the exhaust openings are protected by
grills with very small openings to prevent entry of insects, etc.
The new OutBack VFX series is a ventilated version of our original
sealed FX series modular "building block” sine wave inverter/charger
that can be used for both small and large power systems. By allowing
cooler outside airflow through the internal electronics, more AC power
is available and operation in extremely hot environments is improved
compared to the sealed FX series.
Each OutBack FX or VFX inverter/charger is a complete power conversion
system - DC to AC inverter, battery charger and AC transfer switch.
Additional FX inverter/chargers can be connected at any time in either
parallel (120 VAC), series (120/240 VAC), or three-phase (120Y208 VAC)
configurations. This allows a system to be tailored to meet the
specific power conversion requirements of the application, both at the
time of the installation and in the future.
The OutBack VFX series is also available in export versions with 230
VAC, 50 hz output that can be connected in parallel (230 VAC) or in
three phase (230Y400 VAC) configurations. Like the FX series, the
OutBack VFX is also designed to survive harsh environments around the
world. The full sreened vent openings are "bug-proof" and the die-cast
aluminum chassis protects and keeps the power conversion components
cool in very hot environments even when operated at high power for
extended periods. The VFX can be used in high ambient applications up
to 60oC (with reduced output ratings).
The OutBack VFX series inverter/charger system is designed for both
residential and commercial stand-alone or back-up power applications
with battery energy storage. It is designed to operate as a coordinated
system with the other OutBack products i.e. the PSDC, PSAC and PSR
enclosures as well as the MX60 MPPT charge controllers and MATE system
controller and display.
Vented Construction Features:
- Powdercoated all aluminum die-cast chassis
- Internal electronic components are cooled by outside air
- Stainless steel screen to protect air intake and internal fan
- UL 94V0 plastic vent grills to protect the air exhaust. All
openings are 0.0025 inches square to keep out dirt, bugs, and other
critters – we call it “bug proof” construction
- Air inlet comes with removable, washable foam filter insert to trap small particles
- Conformal coated circuit boards to resist corrosion
- Higher output power when inverting or battery charging when compared with the sealed FX inverter versions
- Designed to allow easy field servicing and repair
- Ideal Applications:
- Montana or Arizona etc. where salt air is not a problem and climate is dry
- More watts per dollar
- Installations where well protected environments are available
