Stellavolta: OutBack Power GS4048A-01 Radian Series Inverter 4kW

Description

OutBack Power GS4048A-01 Radian Series Grid Hybrid Inverter/Charger 4kW, Listed to UL1741-SA.

The Radian Series GS4048A-01 Grid/Hybrid™ (full-flexibility grid-interactive/off-grid) Inverter/Charger is engineered toward one goal: making system design and installation easier and faster in grid-interactive and comprehensive off-grid applications. The new Radian Series inherit the hallmark features of the original design, including: dual AC inputs for grid/generator flexibility with no external switching required, unparalleled surge capability and operational stability, easy field upgradeability and stacking capability for large system scaling, simplified system commissioning through a powerful, easy-to-use configuration wizard, and multi-mode operational flexibility.

In addition, it has a new Advanced Battery Charging (ABC) profile option to support leading-edge battery technologies such as Lithium-Ion and others, and enhanced diagnostics for improved performance. It also incorporates OutBack’s GridZero technology, a superior level of intelligence in energy management for self-generation and self-consumption programs, providing precise balancing between using stored energy, solar and utility power, blending-in the latter to overcome surges and load spikes when needed. GridZero operation makes it possible for a smaller inverter and battery system to perform like a much larger one when required, putting stored and renewable energy sources to work and minimizing grid dependence. GridZero technology make the new Radians ideal for use in complex utility environments such as California and Hawaii.

The GS4048A-01 are certified to UL1741 for US applications, and CSA C22.2 No. 107.1 for Canada, and is IEC 62109-1 certified to meet the most stringent worldwide PV safety and emission standards. This product is for selected North, Central and Latin American markets.

FAQs

How can I attach a device that has a very high start-up surge and keeps switching off the inverter?
You may consider using a soft starter. Read this blog for more information.
How can I attach a device that is 120V (e.g. a water pump)?
You may consider using a transformer like the OutBack Power PSX-240 FLEXware Autotransformer to step-down power from 240V to 120V.
Do I have to shutdown the system when switching between Input Modes?
No, you do not have to shutdown the system when switching between Input Modes.
Why does the label on the inverter not show the "-01"?
The reason that the agency label states simply "GS4048A" is because that is the original agency listing value. Somewhere in 2017, Outback rolled out “SA compliant” models and the internal number was augmented with the "-01." Now, OutBack Power only offers the "-01" model, however, the label on the inverter will continue to show "GS4048A".
Does the OutBack Power Radian have Auto Generator Start (AGS)?
Yes, the Radian inverter/charger can provide a start signal to control an automatic start generator. If automatic generator starting is required, the generator must be an electric-start model with automatic choke. It should have two-wire start capability. For other configurations, additional equipment may be required.
What happens if my usage goes over 4kW?
The unit will shut down or will be damaged. The load must remain below 4kW.
