delivered as a 220V single-phase pure sine wave at 50/60Hz, regulated to 5%
boost at 14.4V, float at 13.6V, capped by a 16V maximum charging voltage
2*rated for 5s, with overload trips after 10s above 105% and 5s above 150% load
input accepted from 90-280V in appliance mode and 170-280V in UPS mode

RS485 to the battery BMS, RS232 to a host, and an LCD and LED display
Rated 1.2kW with 1.5kVA of rated apparent output power, the Felicity Solar IVPS1512 is a single-phase inverter/charger that powers 220V loads at 50/60Hz off a 12V battery bank, recharges it at up to 18A, switches between utility and battery in 15ms and peaks at 90% efficiency, rising above 95% in line mode. Because the stage is low-frequency, the unit is motor-start capable and carries 2*rated for 5s, tripping only after 10s above 105% load and after 5s above 150%. Battery care runs in three stages - boost CC, boost CV, then float - at 14.4V and 13.6V under a 16V ceiling, across AGM, Flooded, Li-Ion and Self-Defined types; it wakes at 11.5V, recovers at 11.75V under half load and stops at 10.5V above it. Grid or generator power passes through at up to 10A, but never without a battery fitted. The IP21 chassis wires as L+N+PE, shows status on LCD and LED, and up to 6 units run in parallel. We are an authorised Felicity Solar distributor; the IVPS1512 ships with a 2 Years warranty.

1.2kW of rated output power and 1.5kVA of rated apparent output power, at 220V single phase. The backup rated output power is 1.2kW, and a surge of 2*rated held for 5s covers motor starting on the 220V output.
18A maximum charging current, taken from AC at up to 18A. Charging is three-stage - boost CC, boost CV, float - at 14.4V bulk and 13.6V float beneath a 16V maximum charging voltage, for AGM, Flooded, Li-Ion and Self-Defined batteries in a 10.5-15.75V window.
No - pass-through without a battery is not supported, so a 12V battery must stay on the single battery input. Start-up voltage is 11.5V, AC pass-through is limited to 10A, and the inverter shuts down at 10.5V above half load and 10.75V below it.
2 Years warranty covers the IVPS1512. It reports on an LCD and LED display, communicates with a battery BMS over RS485 and with a host over RS232, runs from 0-40°C inside an IP21 enclosure, and parallels up to 6 units.
