AC-AC Inverters

Generators equipped with a sine wave inverter can output the same electrical power as a household power outlet, and so are used in a wide variety of situations where electronic devices are used outdoors, including business scenarios such as mobile sales and at construction sites, and leisure scenarios such as camping and barbeques.
In recent years, an increasing number of local communities and businesses have also prepared generators as a countermeasure against large scale power outages resulting from typhoons, serious earthquakes, snow damage, and other natural disasters.

What is Sine wave inverter?

An electrical power converter which can output sine waves.
Common installation examples include devices which are meant to replicate the functionality of household electrical outlets.

Our AC-AC inverter that we developed is a specialized component specifically for an engine-generator. The inverter features a driver for the electronic governor that controls the engine speed and does not require the customer to use an engine control ECU, thus helping downsize the footprint.

Features

AC/AC inverter first converts the three-phase AC energy, from the permanent magnetic generator connected to the engine, to a direct current. Then, the inverter outputs a sine wave.

AC voltage (3 Φ input) → DC voltage → AC voltage (constant voltage)

However, our AC-AC inverters can also be set up and used in parallel operation with our CPU-based digital control.
In addition, the structure of our AC-AC inverter features a solid mold design that is machined and that takes into account outdoor use. It is not only able to withstand dusty or dirty conditions, but also offers high reliability that can handle engine vibrations.
