Samlex PSR-1200-48 1200 Watt Pure Sine Wave Rack Mount Inverter, 48V, 1U, Built-In Transfer Relay
Samlex PSR-1200-48 1200 Watt Pure Sine Wave Rack Mount Inverter, 48V, 1U, Built-In Transfer Relay
Samlex PSR-1200-48 - 1200W Pure Sine Wave Rack Mount Inverter with Transfer Relay, 48V
Warranty
Backup Without a Second Battery Bank
- Pure sine wave output, under 2% THD; the 16 A transfer relay switches in under 8 ms.
- Load Safe transfer on brownout - the load moves to the inverter before a sag becomes an equipment reset.
- Ethernet web monitoring, SNMP traps and e-mail notification; configuration from the front panel, USB, or RS-232C.
- SPDT alarm contacts and wired ENB on/off terminals (contact closure or 20 to 60 VDC signal).
- Detachable C13 AC input cord supplied; NEMA 5-20R duplex output.
- ETL listed to UL 62368-1 and CSA C22.2 No. 62368-1; FCC Part 15(B) Class B.

Where This Inverter Is Used
- 48V telecom and radio sites - one AC circuit for the equipment the DC plant cannot feed directly.
- 48V solar and off-grid systems - household-quality AC from the bank, with generator input through the relay.
- Emergency backup for comms equipment - the shelf stays up as long as the plant holds.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is this different from a rack mount UPS?
A UPS carries its own small battery tray, which means minutes of runtime and a recurring replacement cost. The PSR-1200-48 has no internal batteries: it inverts from the 48V plant you already maintain, so runtime is whatever your string holds and there is nothing inside to age out.
How much load can it carry?
1200 watts continuous on the inverter, with a 2000 watt surge allowance for startup, and the bypass path carries the same 1200 watts of grid power. Keep the steady total under 1200 watts in either mode.
Do I need the PSR-2200-48 instead?
Only if the load list outgrows 1200 watts. The 2200 brings a 30 amp relay and a 4000 watt surge budget, but it takes 2U of rack and costs more; a radio shelf plus a network stack rarely needs it.
What does the DC hookup look like?
Battery conductors land in set-screw terminals with 7/16 inch cable holes, next to a dedicated chassis ground lug. Inside, four 10 amp blade fuses (40 amps total) protect the input; follow the manual's conductor sizing and put a fuse at the battery end of the run.
