Congratulations on your purchase of the PowerVerter

APSX700HF Inverter/Charger! The

APSX700HF gives you a convenient, reliable source of AC power anywhere and anytime you need it.
It keeps connected equipment up and productive through all utility power problems (blackouts,
brownouts and high voltages) by inverting DC power from user-supplied batteries into AC power. When
utility power is present, the APSX700HF automatically passes through power to your equipment while
simultaneously recharging your connected battery bank. Built-in surge suppression provides connected
equipment with additional protection. The APSX700HF is the clean, quiet emergency backup power
alternative to gas generators—with no fuel, fumes, or noise to deal with!
