Subject: TDI Introduces New Single Unit LPE Inverter Mounting Adaptor
Hackettstown, NJ – September 27, 2010
The LPES-SA single module mounting adaptor allows
any standard hot plug 1U LPE inverter to be used in a
“stand alone” application. The LPE-SA further
increases your system’s “up-time” by including a built-
in transfer switch. It transfers your load to mains
power, within approximately 10ms, should inverter
power be lost due to loss of DC Input, over
temperature, or inverter failure. The LPE-SA is the answer to the increased
demand for critical ancillary AC equipment running in DC powered cabinets or near
other uninterruptible DC sources. In these applications it allows quick
and easy access to uninterruptible AC Power for maximum availability.
With simple fixes* for panel or bulkhead mounting, the adaptor provides terminal
blocks for DC input and alarm status relay connections. There are two versions
available – one with two 15A IEC female outlets and one with two 15A NEMA (120V)
female outlets. Both versions have AC connection retaining clips and a 15A IEC male
input connector that can be connected to an AC “utility” source if required.
Internal fusing in the AC input lines provides fault current protection for gross
overload conditions when transfer switch has selected the utility source.
The four standard LPE modules that can be used with the mounting adaptor are
shown in the following table
DC Input
