From the Manufacturer
Do you need a clean, quiet, reliable power source for automotive, remote site, industrial, commercial or residential applications? Tripp Lite’s APS750 Inverter/Charger is the solution you seek! This DC-to-AC inverter/charger powers the equipment you commonly use at home or work—power tools, pumps, portable lighting, notebook computers and more. It’s the ideal power solution for RVs, commercial and fleet vehicles, emergency vehicles, construction sites, remote worksites and any other application that requires a clean, quiet AC power source. The APS750 efficiently converts 12V DC (battery) power into 120V AC (household) power to run any type of equipment, from power tools to computers. Unlike portable generators, the APS750 requires no fuel and produces no noise or fumes. The APS750 also features automatic line-to-battery transfer and an integrated battery charging system for UPS (uninterruptible power supply) applications where an AC power source is present. In UPS mode, the APS750 powers connected equipment while keeping connected batteries fully charged. If AC power becomes unavailable, the APS750 automatically switches to battery power. With its 750-watt capacity, this inverter/charger can handle heavy-duty loads like drills, saws and pumps with ease. The APS750 also features OverPower™ and DoubleBoost™ capability, providing extra power when required for heavy loads and power-hungry equipment start-ups.

Industrial-Strength Output Power
The APS750 efficiently converts 12V DC power from a vehicle battery into 120V AC power for any type of equipment, from heavy-duty drills, saws and pumps to computers and sensitive monitoring equipment. The APS750 provides safe, stable, AC output power to help connected equipment perform at its peak. A frequency control feature ensures that devices dependent on tightly regulated AC line frequency, such as computers, VCRs and DVD/CD players, receive clean, computer-grade power.
Extended Peak Surge Power
Many tools, appliances and printers require extra power for start-up. Others, such as refrigerators and pumps, have fluctuating power demands. When operating in inverter mode, the APS750 accommodates these peak surge demands by providing up to 200% more output power than its continuous rating of 750 watts. In OverPower mode, the APS750 can deliver 1125 watts for up to an hour, providing ample reserve power to keep tools and equipment running longer. In DoubleBoost mode, it can deliver 1500 watts for up to 10 seconds to support power-hungry equipment start-ups and motor cycling requirements. When connected to an AC power source, the APS750 can provide up to 1500 watts continuous power.
Auto-Transfer Switching for UPS Operation
When the APS750 is connected to an AC power source, power is passed through to connected equipment and the battery set is charged via a three-stage, 20-amp charging system with adjustable settings for wet/gel battery types. In the event of a power failure or severe voltage fluctuation, the APS750 responds with a near-instantaneous (16.6 millisecond) automatic transfer to battery power. Any number of user-supplied batteries may be connected to the APS750 to provide extended battery backup support for critical equipment. A three-position switch enables you to select AUTO mode for automatic transfer between utility and battery power, CHARGE-ONLY mode to maintain a full battery charge with no automatic transfer switching when the APS750 is connected to AC power or SYSTEM OFF mode.
Diagnostic LEDs
The APS750 features six front-panel diagnostic LEDs to indicate load level (high, medium and low), battery charge (high, medium and low), shutdown status and system fault status.
Overload Protection
To prevent damage to the inverter and connected equipment, the APS750 will shut down automatically if an overload is detected at the AC output connection. The red Load Level Indicator LED will flash to alert you that an overload has occurred. Additional overload protection is provided by a 6-amp AC input circuit breaker, an 8-amp AC output circuit breaker, and a built-in multi-speed cooling fan.
Heavy-Duty Construction
The APS750 features a rugged, moisture-resistant polycarbonate housing that withstands vibration, impact and high-humidity environments—ideal for use at remote worksites, in trucks, RVs and other vehicles, on boats or anywhere that reliable AC power is needed.
Simple Installation and Equipment Connection
The APS750 features integral mounting slots for permanent installation on any rigid, horizontal surface, such as the bed of a pickup truck. Connecting the APS750 to your battery system is quick and easy with readily available user-supplied cables. A grounding lug on the side of the unit connects the inverter/charger to earth ground or vehicle grounding system. AC power is provided to connected equipment via two standard 5-15R receptacles on the front of the unit. When used as a UPS system, the APS750 connects to utility power via a standard 5-15P plug. Four configuration dip switches 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.
Optional Remote Control Capability
The APS750 is equipped with an RJ45 port for connection of an optional Remote Control LED/Switch Module (Tripp Lite model APSRM4), enabling you to control and monitor the inverter/charger from virtually anywhere within a vehicle.
Peace of Mind
The APS750 comes with a 1-year product warranty and a rapid-response repair/replacement policy that’s unmatched in the industry.
Also Available
Tripp Lite manufactures a full line of power and connectivity solutions—UPS systems, power distribution units, surge suppressors, cables and connectivity solutions, rack enclosures and more—for every application, from the desktop to the datacenter.
