Outback
GTFX and GVFX Grid Intertie Inverters and Systems 
The
Outback GTFX and GVFX series is a grid-tie version of the FX
inverters. Available as either turbo cooled and sealed,
the GTFX, or internally ventilated, the GVFX. With these
inverters you can sell solar, wind and hydro power back to the
utility grid. When the utility power goes out, the
inverter will automatically switch to battery power and your
renewable sources to run your critical loads. The inverter
can be set so that either utility power or your renewable
sources will recharge the battery after an outage. To
prevent AC power draw at night, automatic "silent"
sell mode is built in. Stacked inverters optimize
conversion efficiency by matching the number of inverters to the
amount of power being sole or used. Daily energy
production is within a few percentage points of a batteryless
grid tie system (depending on the battery bank). 2
inverters can be stacked for 120/240v output. Until the
improved generator interface is developed, they are not
recommended for off-grid use.
Outdoor
Systems
The
OBPS1 systems below are factory wired, pre-programmed and fully
ETL listed as complete grid-tie battery back-up solutions.
Even the battery interconnecting cables and conduit are included
to eliminate all guess work and difficult to find parts.
The PS1 includes a type 3R rainproof enclosure which provides
flexibility in where you choose to install the system, allowing
for installation in limited space or outdoors.
Indoor
Systems
 We
also offer pre-wired and tested one or two inverter grid
intertie systems for indoor installations (OBPS2). Choose
a 24 or 48 volt system and sealed or ventilated inverters.

Outback
Inverters
The
Outback inverter is a modular "building block" sine
wave inverter/charger that can be used for both residential and
commercial stand-alone and grid-connected applications with
battery energy storage. Inverters are available in sealed,
fan-cooled or higher powered ventilated versions. Each
inverter/charger module is a complete power conversion system -
DC to AC inverter, battery charger and AC transfer switch.
Additional inverter/chargers can be added at any time in either
parallel (120VAC), series (120/240VAC), or even three-phase
(120Y208VAC) configurations, allowing the system to be tailored
to the specific needs of the application, both at the time of
installation and into the future. With the addition of an
X-240 autotransformer, multiple inverter systems can be set up
to provide 120/240 VAC split-phase output with the ability to
provide full power on either 120VAC leg of the system. Up
to ten inverters can be connected together to provide up to 36
kW of continuous power capacity with the use of the HUB and the
MATE controller. The inverter's powerful battery charger
operates in five stages: BULK (constant current output),
ABSORB (constant voltage output), FLOAT (reduced voltage
output), SILENT (no charger output) and EQUALIZE (constant
voltage regulation overcharging). Charge time in each
stage is adjustable to provide control and to maximize the
performance of the charger and battery system.
 Each
Outback inverter has one programmable, auxiliary relay output
connection (AUX). The AUX terminal provides 12 VDC output
to run 12V cooling or ventilation fans or operate an external
relay to perform other functions, such as remote generator
starting (two-wire), to disconnect external charging sources
(such as PV), or to turn on a diversion load for voltage
regulation. The built-in transfer switch is rated for 60
amps. When an external source of AC power (either a
generator or the utility grid) is detected at the "AC
In" terminal on the inverter, the switch operates to
transfer the loads to the external power source, and then
activates the battery charger to re-charge the battery bank.

Outback
FX Sealed Inverters with Turbo Fan
The
Outback FX-series is designed to survive harsh environments
anywhere in the world. Their unique sealed, gasketed
die-cast aluminum chassis protects and keeps the power
conversion components cool - without requiring outside air to be
blown through the sensitive electronics. This reduces the
major causes of inverter failure - corrosion, dust, insect and
animal damage. They can be used in high ambient
temperature application up to 60�C with reduced output ratings.
Outback
MATE Remote Monitor and Control
The
Outback MATE is a complete system controller and display for
both the Outback inverter/charger and MX60 MPPT PV charge
controller. It provides a display of the operation as well
as allows control and adjustment of the set points. the
Outback MATE also coordinates the operation of the entire system
to maximize performance and to prevent multiple products from
conflicting. A single Outback MATE is able to connect to
multiple inverter/chargers, MX60MPPT PV charge controllers and
any other Outback power conversion and control products offered
in the future. A maximum of ten Outback products will be
able to be connected to a single MATE via CAT 5 ethernet type
cabling with 8 wire RJ45 modular connectors and the Outback HUB
communication manager. The Outback MATE also includes an
opto-isolated RS232 port with a DB9 jack for connection to the
serial port of the PC computer.
The
new MATE-2 has a flush-mount black face for panel or in-wall
mounting. 2-year warranty
Outback
VFX Ventilated Inverters
The
Outback VFX series is a ventilated version of the original
sealed FX series modular 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 is extremely hot environments is
improved compared to the sealed FX series. The full
screened 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 60�C (with reduced
output ratings). Ventilated inverters are a better choice
when generator powered battery charging is an important part of
system battery charging. The fan cooling allows far higher
continuous battery charging current which results in shorter
generator run time.

Outback
FX Inverter Accessories 
Use
these accessories to mount the inverter to an Outback Power
Center, to connect it to conduit or to stack multiple
inverters. A Hub is required to connect more than one
inverter to the same load or to connect inverters, MATEs and MX
charge controllers to allow programming and monitoring of  the
entire system by the MATE. The remote temperature sensor
is important for accurate battery charging, especially if the
batteries get very warm or cold. If used with a HUB, one
temperature sensor can be shared by all inverters and MX charge
controllers.
