- Overview
- Features
- Specifications
Tripp Lite's APS3636VR DC-to-AC
inverter with automatic line-to-battery transfer and
integrated charging system serves as an extended run UPS, a
standalone power source or an automotive inverter. Supplies
up to 3600 watts of continuous 120V AC power from any 36V battery
or automotive DC source. OverPower inverter output feature
temporarily provides up to 150% of the continuous output for
1-60 minutes and DoubleBoost inverter output feature delivers
up to 200% of the continuous output for up to 10 seconds, providing
the extra power needed to cold start heavy-duty tools and motorized
equipment. When hardwire AC input is energized, commercial power
passes through to connected equipment and the battery set is
recharged via 3 stage, 30 amp charging system. In UPS mode,
the APS system responds to blackouts and severe voltage fluctuations
with a near instantaneous automatic transfer to battery-derived
AC output. Includes a set of high current DC input terminals
for simple installation (user supplies batteries and cabling
- see owner's manual for recommendations). Passes sine wave
utilty or generator power during battery charging and UPS line
power operation, plus efficient PWM sine wave AC output in inverter
and UPS backup modes. Built-in Automatic Voltage Regulation
(AVR) corrects line power AC brownouts and overvoltages without
using battery power during battery charging and UPS standby
modes. Reliable large transformer design, with frequency control
powers resistive electronic loads or large inductive motors,
compressors and other items with high current needs on startup.
Included APSRM4 wired remote power switch with full status
LEDs provides remote power inverter on/off switching and continuous
status information (APSRM4 included). Supports an unlimited
amount of runtime with any number of user-supplied batteries
connected. Highly adaptable to a variety of applications and
site conditions with adjustable charger settings for wet/gel
battery types and selectable line to battery power transfer
voltages.

Key Features
- APS3636VR serves as an automotive or stationary DC-to-AC
inverter with automatic line-to-battery transfer and integrated
battery charger
- Supports 120V AC output from a 120V AC line power source
or 36V DC battery source
- 16.6 millisecond automatic transfer between line and battery
power supports UPS protection during blackouts and severe
voltage fluctuations for equipment compatible with a one cycle
transfer time
- 3600 watts continuous AC output in inverter mode, 3600 watts
continuous AC output in AC mode
- Double Boost inverter output supports momentary startup
loads up to 200% of the continuous rating for up to 10 seconds
- OverPower inverter output supports longer duration overloads
to 150% for 1-60 minutes under ideal battery and temperature
conditions. (For best results, utilize OverPower usage for
as short of a duration as possible, ensure battery bank and
cabling is able to provide full nominal DC voltage under load
and allow inverter/charger to fully cool before and after
OverPower usage.)
- 3 stage, 30 amp battery charger with adjustable settings
for wet/gel battery types offers fast, reliable battery recharging
- Protected hardwire bolt-down input lugs safely accept heavy
gauge input wiring from attached battery bank
- Protected hardwire output passes 120V line power or inverter
output through to connected equipment
- Reliability enhanced large-transformer design with secure
mounting flanges and protected DC wiring terminals
- Moisture-resistant construction enables vehicular or marine
operation in high humidity environments
- 3 position operating mode switch supports "AUTO"
mode to enable automatic transfer between DC and AC modes,
CHARGE-ONLY to maintain a full battery charge when AC is present
without auto transfer and SYSTEM OFF settings
- Set of six front panel LEDs display AC/DC operational modes,
overload status, DC voltage level, shutdown status and system
fault status
- Set of 4 configuration dipswitches support wet/gel battery
charging profiles, adjustable 135/145V high voltage auto transfer
during overvoltages and selectable 75/85/95/105V AC low voltage
auto transfer during brownouts
- Set of 4 additional configuration dipswitches support 4
levels of charger limiting relative to output load size and
a battery equalization program
- Resettable 25A charger AC input breaker and resettable 30A
AC output breaker and automatic 2 speed cooling fan protect
the inverter from load and temperature related failures
- Grounding lug properly connects the inverter/charger system
to earth ground or vehicle grounding system
- Automatic overload and thermal shutoff safely turns off
inverter as excessive loads or overheating conditions develop
- Front panel remote control connector enables remote off/on
switching (APSRM4 remote control switch with status LED display
and 50 ft cable included). APSRM4 accessory also includes
user configurable jacks to support inverter shutoff or startup
as a vehicle ignition is engaged
- Load sensing control dial enables adjustable load threshold
required to automatically turn the inverter on and off in
DC mode as load conditions change
Typical Applications
- Versatile inverter/charger system with auto-transfer switching
serves as an automotive inverter for RVs, over-the-road trucking,
conversion vans and fleet service vehicles; a standalone alternative
power source for off-grid, alternative energy or export applications
and as an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) for items compatible
with a 16.6 millisecond transfer time.
Package Includes
- APS3636VR Inverter/Charger
- Instruction manual with warranty information
- Wired Remote Switch with full LED status indicators (model
