What is an inverter?
An inverter is a technical device to invert d.c. voltage into sinusoidal alternating voltage.
In the case of the ECTIVE
®
inverter the d.c. voltage is usually provided by a battery. In
this way, the inverter inverts direct into alternating current. The 230 V grounded protect-
ed contact socket of the inverter allows to operate electronic devices independant of
position and autonomously, which usually need a 230 V a domestic power supply.
With the ECTIVE
®
TMI series, you also have the function of a uninterruptible power
supply (UPS). Existing mains current is here prioritized. If the mains is switched off,
the inverter automatically switches to battery operation within 16 ms and ensures an
uninterrupted operation of your consumers.
ECO-Mode: With the ECO-Mode from TMI100-series you have the additional func-
tion of a battery priority circuit. When the ECO-Mode is switched on and AC- Power is
available, the battery does not use the AC power and the batteries will not be charged.
(ECO-Mode = Energy-Saving-Mode)
The battery priority function is active as long as the battery voltage is over the certain
“cut off”-battery voltage (voltage values see the chart “safety features” on page 43).
If this value is deceeded and the shore power is still connected, the inverter returns to
mains priority circuit to avoid battery damages.
