Afriipower 1700VA (1.7kVA) 24V Pure Sine Wave Inverter – Product Information

Afriipower brings onboard several years of research and experience in inverter technology and incorporates the best technology advances made by the industry. The new range of Afriipower pure sine wave inverters are ahead of the curve, having been designed by engineers who helped to develop some of the best known inverter brands. The Afriipower pure sine wave inverter range is designed to withstand the challenges of our local operational environment, including low power supply, wide voltage fluctuations and the need to protect the user's battery bank and ensure longevity.

The design improvements that the Afriipower 1700VA inverter parades are intended for the benefit of the user. The elegant tower form factor is not common in this capacity range. The Afriipower 1700VA inverter stands relatively tall and imposing, but that's exactly how it's also designed to work - towering above peers in performance. This 1.7kVA Afriipower also has a full disgital display, enabling the user easily monitor its operation. That LCD display highlights a wide range of status information: equipment startup information, LCD status display and fault / protection status reports.

The Afriipower 1.7kVA/24V inverter also provides audible beep for overload, short circuit, backfeed, low battery, over tempature, mains fuse blown / MCB trip, to help the user understand how his inverter is running and if any problem has arisen.

You require two 12V batteries to run the Afriipower 1700VA inverter. The 100Ah to 260Ah battery capacities are recommended, depending on the load and expected backup. The user needs to have adequate battery capacity to avoid overstretching the battery bank and ruining the batteries.
