Tortech TXF inverters design and manufacturer difference:
|
Components/ functionality |
Tortech TXF Pure Sinewave Inverter |
Competing model |
|
Transformer |
Our Advantages: Adopting more efficient “UI type” transformer for the 4-6KW models. 88% peak DC to AC efficiency, and ultra low idle consumption. 80W idle consumption for 6KW inverters. |
Drawbacks: Adopting two lossy “EI type” transformers for the 4-6KW models. High low idle consumption. Around 150W-240W idle consumption for 6KW inverters. |
|
DIP Switch |
Our Advantages: 1 Offers customized performance on power sensing cycle, input AC voltage range and low battery trip point. 2 Better generator compliatility with wider AC input range. For more details, pls refer to our manual. |
Unavailable
Drawbacks: The specs are all preset in the factory, users have no option to change it to suit their specific electrical systems. |
|
AC/Battery priority selector |
Our Advantages: 1 Offers flexibility to set the inverter to either AC priority mode or battery priority in different power systems. For example, in renewable systems, battery priority is preferred. 2 The charging algorithm will also change in battery priority mode to conserve AC input power. For more details, pls refer to our manual. |
Unavailable
Drawbacks: The inverters are set in AC priority be default and don’t work well in renewable systems. |
|
Auto Generator Start |
Our Advantages: Auto Generator Start for back up electrical generators in renewable system. This terminal can also be connected to external alarm devices to give alarm when battery voltage goes low. |
Unavailable
|
|
Charge Current Control |
Our Advantages: The charging current can be regulated to different ratings for a wide range of battery banks. |
Unavailable
Drawbacks: Battery bank capacity has to be specially configurated to suit the charger rating. |
|
Remote LCD control panel |
Our Advantages: Remote LCD control panel with system status at a glance. |
Generally Unavailable |
|
DC to AC Switch delay |
Our Advantages: 15 secs switch delay from battery to input AC, this avoids frequent switches and leaves time for generator to spin up |
Generally Unavailable |
|
AC Voltage Regulation |
Our Advantages: We offer optional Voltage Regulation to regulate the input voltage from 154-276Vac/78-144Vac to an output voltage of 230V/120V±10% . |
Generally Unavailable |
|
DC Terminal |
Our Advantages: 1 Metal screw holes for greatly extended lifespan than plastic ones 2 Strengthened metal base and bolt with enhanced torque rate of 23 NM 3 Higher plastic flammability of 94V-0. |
Drawbacks: Easy wear of plastic screws holes after a few times or over torque. Low plastic flammability. |
|
Grounding Terminal |
Our Advantages: Larger size, improved conductivity with maximum conductivity to 40A, UL 458 compliant. |
Drawbacks: Low conductivity of 10Amps. The terminal may unable to conduct all the current when a short circuit occurs, endangering the users. |
