Welcome to OutBack Power Technologies
Thank you for purchasing the OutBack Radian Series Inverter/Charger. This product offers a
complete power conversion system between batteries and AC power. It can provide backup power,
sell power back to the utility grid, or provide complete stand-alone off-grid service.

NOTE
:
This product has a settable AC output range. In this book, many references to the output
refer to the entire range. However, some references are made to 120/240 Vac or 60 Hz
output. These are intended as examples only.

Outback Power Technologies Intuitive Control System for Renewable Energy

Designed to be integrated as part of an OutBack Grid/Hybrid™ system

Battery-to-AC inverting which delivers split-phase power (100/200 Vac to 120/240 Vac at 60
or 50 Hz)

Model GS8048A can continuously produce 8 kVA (33 Aac)
Model GS4048A can continuously produce 4 kVA (16 Aac)

Mounts easily with supplied mounting plate

All terminals exit at the bottom of the inverter, allowing the
installer to use a single distribution box; the GS Load Center
(GSLC) is specifically designed for this purpose

Uses the MATE3™ class of System Display and
Controller products, or the AXS Port™ SunSpec Modbus
Interface (sold separately) for user interface as part of a
Grid/Hybrid system
~ MATE3s system display is required for grid
support functionality; requires revision 1.001.000
or greater

Supports the OPTICS RE™ online tool
1
for a cloud-based
remote monitoring and control application
~ Requires MATE3-class device or AXS Port
~ Visit www.outbackpower.com to download

Uses the HUB™ Series Communications Manager for
networking as part of a Grid/Hybrid system

Features versatile mounting locations for the MATE3 and
HUB products, FLEXmax charge controller, and GSLC

The venting on the cover allows mounting of multiple Radian inverters side by side with
minimal clearance between them

Up to 10 Radian inverter/chargers can be stacked together

Uses spring-based AC terminals instead of screw-based terminals; this eliminates torque
requirements and periodic re-tightening
