OverviewCSI 1K F31-HSA series DC-AC inverters use microprocessor-controlled high-frequency PWM technology to generate up to 1 kVA of pure sine wave output. The design includes a DC-DC boost stage that raises the input voltage to a higher DC bus which feeds the DC-AC inverter to produce continuous, low-distortion AC. Output options include 115 Vac continuous at 60 Hz or 400 Hz, and 230 Vac continuous at 50 Hz. Output neutral is chassis-referenced; isolated floating output is available on request. Typical full-load efficiency is approximately 80%. Optional features include an output-fail alarm (Form C) and remote shutdown.
Mechanical construction and coolingThe units are convection-cooled via a custom heatsink assembly (HSA) with fins attached to the under-surface. This arrangement permits mounting on uneven or thermally non-conductive surfaces (e.g. wood, plastic, brick) and operation without fans or external heatsinking. The heatsink assembly can be chassis-mounted or fitted to a 19 in panel. Designed to operate over -25°C to +50°C for full specification without derating.
ApplicationsThe CSI 1K F31-HSA series is intended for power utilities, mining, marine, industrial automation and transportation systems requiring clean, reliable AC power from DC sources.
EMI, safety standards and electronic protectionInput and output filtering reduces ripple and conducted emissions. The input stage meets EN55032 Class A with margins; Class B available as an option. The product conforms to EN62368-1 and equivalent UL/CSA safety standards. Electronic protections include 1000 Vdc input-to-chassis/output isolation, inrush current limiting, output current limiting with short-circuit protection, and thermal shutdown with automatic recovery if cooling is insufficient.
