Schneider Electric XW Series (formerly Xantrex)
The Schneider Electric Xantrex XW Series hybrid inverter/charger has an innovative, integrated design that minimizes external balance-of-system components allowing for quick and easy installation as either a grid-tie battery-backup system or a fully off-grid power system. The XW offers split-phase 120/240VAC output from a single inverter. Up to 4 inverters can be paralleled for up to 24kW of total output in a 120/240V split-phase system, or operate in a 208VAC 3-phase configuration with up to 2 inverters per phase (6 inverters total) for up to 36kW of power. Models are also available for 230V or 400VAC three-phase at 50Hz for overseas operation. Charge controllers, such as the Schneider XW60-150 or the XW80-600, are required for use with any PV array.
High surge capacity is achieved by using digital control to regulate the output voltage from dropping during surge. Efficient, power-factor-corrected, high-current multi-stage battery charging minimizes recharge time and electricity/fuel costs. Dual AC inputs (grid and generator). Full control of generator with optional automatic generator start (AGS) unit. Configurable auxiliary relay output of 250mA at 12VDC included in each inverter.
The inverter display panel shows status at a
glance. LEDs indicate AC-in status, faults/warnings, equalize mode,
and battery state of charge. Three-character LED indicates output
power or charge current. A battery temperature sensor is included
with each inverter, but only one is needed per system.

XW Power Distribution Panel with conduit box for 1 XW inverter | |||||
The XW Connection Kit contains everything needed to add a second inverter. For a third inverter, use one Connection Kit plus a pair of 5-foot 4/0 inverter cables, with lugs on each end. An external transfer switch will be required if the inverter bypass function is desired.
For four inverters, use two Power Distribution Panels and two Connection Kits.
Use the XW conduit box to retrofit XW inverters into existing systems which already have AC/DC disconnects.
The XW System Control Panel plugs into the Xanbus network and provides a central user interface to configure and monitor all components in the system. One is required per XW system to change inverter programming.
5-year warranty.
CSA Listed to UL 1741 for the U.S. and Canada.
Dimensions of the inverter are 16 x 23 x 9 inches.
The inverter is field-serviceable without needing to remove it from the wall.
