Features
The Conext XW+ is a modular building block sine-wave inverter/charger that can
be used for residential and commercial battery based off-grid, grid backup, and
grid interactive applications.
The Conext XW+ is a self-contained DC to AC inverter, battery charger, and
integrated AC transfer switch. It is configurable in a hybrid system to operate with
generators and renewable energy sources. These configurations are capable of
extending battery based off-grid/backup autonomy.
Performance Highlights
• Excellent load starting with high 30-minute and 5-second power.
• Off-grid AC Coupling with PV inverters using frequency power curtailment
method.
• Operation in hot environments up to 70°C.
• Conversion of DC energy to AC energy for export to the utility grid.
• Power factor corrected charging minimizes AC current required for charging.
• True sine wave output.
Distinguishing Features
• Grid-interactive feature set enables time management and prioritization of
energy sources and power conversion to support advanced modes of
operation such as load shifting, self consumption and peak load shaving.
• Dual AC input connections with 60 A automatic transfer switch integrates
both utility grid and generator.
• Generator Support functionality assists small generators with heavy loads.
• Auxiliary port assist with relay switching of external devices such as battery
room fans, diversion loads and generators.
• Configurable battery parameters for customized battery charging.
• Field serviceable boards and components.
Xanbus™ Network Communications Protocol
The Conext XW+ uses Xanbus™, a network communications protocol developed
by Schneider to communicate with other Xanbus-enabled devices. You can
configure and monitor the Conext XW+ and other Xanbus-enabled devices in the
system using the Conext System Control Panel (part number 865-1050-01) or
Conext ComBox (part number 865-1058).
