Xantrex XW - hybrid inverter / charger

Xantrex XW6048-120/240-60 Hybrid Inverter Charger

The NEXT generation inverter/charger for renewable energy systems and backup power applications

Xantrex brings the next generation of inverter/charger to market, with the XW Hybrid Inverter/Charger, the heart of the XW System. The XW Hybrid Inverter/Charger (XW) is a true sine wave, 120/240-volt AC, split-phase, inverter/charger that incorporates a DC to AC inverter, a battery charger, and an AC auto-transfer switch. It is the foundation for battery- based residential and commercial applications up to 18 kilowatts (kW). Capable of being grid-interactive or grid-independent, the XW can operate with generators and renewable energy sources to provide full time or backup power.

Description
Designed with consultation and input from industry experts, dealers, and installers, the XW sets a new standard for battery-based inverter/chargers. Integrating the best features available in the market, innovative new features by Xantrex and balance-of-systems components, the XW Hybrid Inverter/Charger's design makes installation quicker and easier. The XW offers high efficiency and unprecedented surge capacity to maximize the owner's return on investment. No other inverter/charger looks or performs like the XW.
