Frequently Asked Questions
What is Generator Support Mode and how does it work?
Generator Support Mode automatically supplements generator power when AC loads exceed the generator's capacity. The Freedom SW3012 seamlessly combines generator and battery power to handle high-demand loads, allowing smaller generators to power larger electrical systems.
Can I connect multiple Freedom SW3012 units together?
Yes, the Freedom SW3012 supports both parallel and series stacking. Parallel stacking doubles the AC output power, while series stacking creates 120/240V split-phase output. A stacking cable (part #808-9005) is required for these configurations.
What battery types are compatible with the Freedom SW3012?
The Freedom SW3012 is compatible with flooded lead-acid, gel, and AGM battery types. The 3-stage charging algorithm with temperature compensation optimizes charging for each battery type, and the unit can recover batteries drained to as low as 3VDC.
How fast does the transfer switch operate?
The Freedom SW3012 features ultra-fast transfer switching in less than 10 milliseconds between AC input power and inverter power. This rapid switching ensures connected equipment experiences virtually no power interruption during transitions.
Is professional installation required?
Yes, professional installation by a qualified marine electrician or RV technician is strongly recommended. The unit requires proper DC and AC wiring, appropriate fusing/breakers, battery connections, and adherence to ABYC/NEC electrical codes for safe operation.
The second generation 2000 Watts model has been completely redesigned to include many of the same great features found in its high power counterpart. A key feature enhancement is ‘Generator Support Mode’ which enables the Freedom SW to supplement a generator¹ when AC loads exceed the generator’s capacity. The new generation models also feature improved AC transfer or AC input detection time, providing the ability to transfer AC loads to batteries in less than 10 Milliseconds when the incoming grid or generator power is lost. Connected loads are almost unable to feel the power transition due to this quick transfer time. Both models are approved to UL458 with marine supplement, CSA, ABYC and FCC, Class B requirements.
