UPS-Charged Pure Sine Wave Inverter

Saintish inverter charger power ranges from 500W to 4000W. and DC voltage available in 12V, 24V or 48V.

It works as like UPS, when the public main power is available, the Inverter with charger will charge battery, when the main power disconnected, the inverter stop charging the battery immediately and transfer power from DC to AC, supplying the loads. All goes so fast the loads keep working without any problem.
