Hey guys,
I've been in contact with Sigineer Power about their HS10048D IP65 outdoor AIO 10kW inverter. I will be powering most of my home with the unit including our 5ton AC unit. LRA on the unit is 127a but I'm expecting to get that down to 55a+/-5 with the EasyStart Micro-Air 368 Advanced Soft Starter (ASY-368-X72-BLUE) which should bring my peak load down closer to 14kW.
It appears that a lot of the AIO inverters on the market are High Frequency
- HS10048D
- LVX6048WP
- LV6048
- 6500EX-48
- Any of the Sol-Ark (5,8,12kW)
As apposed to some of the low frequency inverters I've been looking at
- LVX6048
- SPF12000TDVM
- M12048D
Snippets from my email with Sigineer Power:
As state above, I'm expecting my AC to peak less than 14kW and once powered on should consume aprox 4.8kW sustained. A lot of the most popular AIO inverters are High Frequency Transformerless. How important is it to use the correct family of transformer (high vs. low freq) for to power devices like your air conditioning or shop air compressors with large motors like that?

Sigineer Power said:-To be frank, the HS10048D is not the best option for you. It is a transformerless on and off grid solar inverter, mainly for on grid system. For off grid, you can have a look at our M12048D. It will continue to provide power from the grid to my panel even after my batteries are drained, as it will transfer to the AC input.
-The problem is, the HS10048D is high frequency inverter, it is less reliable in powering up inductive loads.
-Because the HS10048D inverter is transformerless, it is not designed to power inductive loads with motors.
-For the M12048D, there is a big transformer. It is 36KW surge for 5 seconds, while the HS10048D has only 20KW surge for 5 seconds. The HS10048D can handle a smaller inductive load around 4HP/3KW. Pls find this link below:
