ECTIVE CSI Series 2V Sinus Charger Inverter
Product Information
The Power Inverter Pure Sinewave CSI Series and SSI Series are devices that convert DC power from a battery into AC power that can be used to run various electronic devices. These devices are available in various models ranging from CSI 3 to CSI 30 and SSI 10 to SSI 30, with varying power output and input voltage requirements. The devices come equipped with various safety features, including protection against overloading, short-circuiting, overheating, and low voltage.
Product Usage Instructions
Before using the Power Inverter Pure Sinewave CSI Series or SSI Series, ensure that you have read the user manual and understood all the instructions provided. The following steps can be taken as a guide to use the device:
- Ensure that the power inverter is installed in a well-ventilated area with sufficient space around it to prevent overheating.
- Connect the power inverter to a battery with the recommended cable size as indicated in the user manual.
- Switch on the power inverter using the ON/OFF switch located on the device’s front panel.
- Connect the device(s) you wish to power to the power inverter’s AC outlet(s).

- Ensure that the device(s) you wish to power does not exceed the maximum power output of the power inverter.
- When done using the device, switch off the power inverter and disconnect it from the battery.
It is important to note that these devices should not be used in vehicles
where the positive pole is connected to the car body.
Failure to adhere to this warning could cause serious injury or damage to the
device.
What is an inverter?
An inverter is a technical device to invert d.c. voltage into sinusoidal
alternating voltage. In the case of the ECTIVE inverter the d.c. voltage is
usually provided by a battery. In this way, the inverter inverts direct into
alternating current. The 230 V grounded protected contact socket of the
inverter allows to operate electronic devices independant of position and
autonomously, which usually need a 230 Vadomestic power supply.
With the integrated IUoU charger of the ECTIVE inverter CSIseries, you have
the possibility to recharge the used batteries.
Devices of the SSIserie have an MPPT solar charge controller in addition to
the original charger.
ECO-Mode: With the ECO-Mode from CSI5/SSI10-series you have the additional
function of a battery priority circuit. When the ECO-Mode is switched on and
AC- Power is available, the battery does not use the AC power and the
batteries will not be charged. (ECO-Mode = Energy-Saving-Mode)
The battery priority function is active as long as the battery voltage is over
the certain
“cut off”-battery voltage (voltage values see the chart “safety features”).
If this value is deceeded and the shore power is still connected, the inverter
returns to mains priority circuit to avoid battery damages.

Please mind the starting current!
Keep in mind that inductive devices (for example power drills or refrigerators etc.) often need a 3–10 times higher power at the beginning than indicated on the descriptive type plate. The maximum power of this short period should not surpass the maximum power of the inverter. -
Listen to the acoustic signal!
In case of overload an acoustic signal will sound. If the needed power is not reduced to the maximal continuous output, the inverter will shut down automatically. -
Output losses because of heat
An ambient temperature over 40°C (for ex. due to heat at the installation site or direct sunlight) can lower the specified output and efficiency.

Functional diagrams of charger/MPPT-solar charge controller
General information about charging function
The inverter is able to supply batteries and loads with electricity when shore
and solar power is available, both in switched on and switched off
Device switched on:
in ECO Mode (pure inverter mode):
- only solar power is used to charge the batteries.
- only solar power is used to supply the 230 V consumers.
in UPS mode (uninterruptible power supply):
- Solar power is primarily used to charge the batteries.
- Shore power is primarily used to supply 230 V consumers.
- If solar power is disconnected or it becomes dark, the system switches from solar to AC charging via shore power after approx. 30 seconds.
Device switched off:
- Simultaneous charging with solar and shore power possible (like scenario 5, see page 54)
- Shore power can be used to supply the 230 V consumers.
Explanation of charging phases CSI- and SSI-series
The integrated charger as well as the MPPT-solar charge controller of the SSI-
series charge automatically with a 3-step IUoU charge characteristic which is
described below.
- Bulk (main charge): The battery is charged with permanent current and carefully rising voltage until a predefined maximum voltage and until a stage of charging of 80% is reached.
- Absorption (remaining charge): The battery is charged with permanent current and gradual decreasing current from 80% to 14,4 V* and a 100% capacity. The gradual decreasing current ensures that the terminal voltage does not become too high during the complete charging process.
- FLOAT (charge maintenance): The battery status remains permanently at 13,6 V* without overcharging or damaging the battery. The voltage is permanently controlled in this mode. If the voltage decreases to a predefined level, the battery is charged through a pulse charge until reaching again 100%, so the charge status remains permanently between 95% and 100%. This charging-cycle is repeated appropriately and influences the lifetime of the battery in a positive way.
Stage | Current | Voltage | Capacity |
---|---|---|---|
Bulk (main charge) | 100% | increasing up to ca . 14,4 V* | up to 80% |
Absorption (remaining charge) | decreasing | increasing from 14,4 V* | 80% to |
100%
Float
(charge maintenance)
| below 20%| 13,6 V*| 95% to 100%
All voltage values refer to 12 V. For 24 V: double value. The voltage tolerance is ± 0.2 V.
Functional diagram SSI-series (illustration of a 12 V-device)
ECO Mode
If the inverter mode is activated, the batteries will not be charged despite
available shore power. If the inverter is switched off, the batteries will be
charged by the charger in case of available shore power.
UPS Mode
Scenario 1: Shore power available during daytime
T0 – T5: (bypass mode)
If the system is started and shore power is available, the bypass mode starts
automati-cally, the inverter mode is deactivated and all devices are supplied
with shore power. As long as the battery voltage is >11 V, the integrated
charger remains deactivated in this phase. Everything is charged by solar
power.
The solar power charges the batteries with a IUoU charging characteristic
(max.
14,4 V) and remains afterwards at a maintenance-charge voltage of 13,6 V*.
Scenario 2: Shore power fails at night
T5 – T6: (UPS function/inverter function)
If the shore power connection is disconnected and no solar power is available
the device switches automatically from bypass mode into inverter mode. Due to
the disconnection of solar and shore power the batteries are used for power
supply and discharged until max. 11 V*.
Scenario 3: Shore power returns at night
T6 – T9: (Charging with charger)
As soon as shore power is available, the device switches immediately to bypass
mode and the batteries are charged by the integrated charger. If there is no
solar power avai-lable but shore power, the batteries will be charged to a
100%.
Scenario 4: Shore power fails a second time at night
T9 – T10: (deep discharge of batteries in emergencies)
If the shore power connection is disconnected a second time and there is no
solar power available (at night for example) and the device switches into
inverter mode, the batteries are discharged to 10,5 V* and then disconnected.
Scenario 5: Simultaneous charging according to Scenario 4
T10 – T11: (simultaneous charging after emergency)
If scenario 4 has occurred (discharging to 10,5 V) the batteries are charged
via solar and shore power (for example in daylight) to prevent a battery
damage as soon as possible, until a voltage of 13 V is reached. Afterwards
the batteries are charged with solar power only.
All voltage values refer to 12 V. For 24 V: double value.
Safety features
Please note!
Restart necessary!
The inverter is equipped with several safety features to protect the inverter
and all its components as for example the batteries.
The inverter is equipped with a thermic and electronic over-/undervoltage
protection. If the required values are exceeded or not reached, the device
disconnects the AC output and must be switched off and on again before
restarting via the ON/OFF switch.
Caution!
The device remains switched on when the AC output is disconnected. There is a risk of deep discharge of connected batteries due to the power consumption of this standby mode.
The inverter disconnects the AC output in the following cases:
- internal temperature too high
- required output load too high
- input voltage too high or too low
