Samlex PST-1500-48 - 1500W 48V Pure Sine Wave Inverter, GFCI + Hardwire

48 volt banks keep multiplying, in solar builds, telecom plants and electric equipment, and most of them eventually need real AC. The Samlex PST-1500-48 is a 48V pure sine wave inverter that answers with 1500 watts of 120VAC, a 3000 watt surge window, and an input range that stretches from 42 to 64 volts, wide enough to ride a lithium rack at absorption without complaint. Output lands on a GFCI duplex or the hardwire terminal block, and the whole thing draws no more than 50 amps.

Warranty

Warranty. Samlex America warrants the PST-1500-48 for 3 years. Full terms are confirmed in writing with your quote.

Built for the 48V Build-Out

42 to 64 volt window
The highest input ceiling in the PST family tolerates charge voltages that would shut down narrower designs.
50 amps, fully loaded
1500 watts arrives at a quarter of the current a 12V build would need; cabling and fusing stay light.
90% peak efficiency
More of the bank becomes AC and less becomes heat, with two temperature-controlled fans idle until needed.
  • Pure sine wave output, under 3% THD, up to 12.5 amps at 120 VAC.
  • 3000 watt surge (under 8 ms) starts motor loads without dropping the rest.
  • UPC protections: low voltage shutdown at 40 V, high voltage at 64 V, overload, short circuit, over-temperature and outlet ground fault.
  • RC-300 LCD remote available separately; FCC Part 15(B) Class B.

Where This Inverter Is Used

  • 48V solar and off-grid systems - the AC stage sized for a serious bank.
  • Telecom plants - utility power for the corded equipment a DC site cannot feed.
  • Electric equipment and vehicles on 48V - tools and chargers straight from traction voltage.
  • Backup power - 1500 watts of household AC through an outage.

Ordering

The 48V sweet spot. Add the DC-1000-KIT 100A cable kit and the RC-300 remote in the same order. Rack-mount comms sites should look at the PSR-1200-48 instead; 12 and 24 volt banks take the matching PST-1500. Site and fleet quantities get a written quote in 24 to 48 hours.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will it run from my 48V solar or telecom bank?

That is the design brief. The 42 to 64 VDC input window is the widest ceiling in the PST line, high enough to sit on a lithium rack at full charge or a lead string in equalize without tripping the high-voltage shutdown.

What are the output connection options?

A GFCI-protected duplex receptacle for corded loads and a set-screw terminal block for fixed wiring to a sub-panel or a Samlex STS-30 transfer switch, sharing 12.5 amps of output between them.

What does it draw at 48 volts?

A maximum of 50 amps, protected by five internal 10 amp fuses, with under half an amp at idle. Samlex pairs it with the DC-1000-KIT 100A installation kit, which covers the cable and battery-end fuse with room to spare.

How does it differ from the PSR rack mount 48V inverters?

Role. The PSR-1200-48 is a 1U rack unit with a built-in transfer relay and network monitoring for comms sites; this PST-1500-48 is a chassis-mount inverter with more wattage, hardwire capability and GFCI outlets for vehicles, solar builds and general 48V plants. Same battery voltage, different jobs.
