FAQ

What are the main electrical specifications of the Mean Well TS-400-212C?

The TS-400-212C is a 400W DC-AC power inverter with a nominal 230V AC output. It produces a true sine wave output with THD below 3%, and it can deliver surge power up to 800W for short peak demand.

What kind of equipment is this inverter best suited for?

This model is designed for applications that need a 230V AC true sine wave supply from a DC source. Its low-distortion output makes it a strong fit for business and industrial loads that are more sensitive to waveform quality than they would be with a modified sine wave inverter.

How does the TS-400-212C compare with a modified sine wave inverter?

The TS-400-212C provides a true sine wave output with THD below 3%, which is a key differentiator from modified sine wave models. That cleaner waveform is generally preferred when output quality and stable operation matter more than choosing the lowest-cost inverter option.

Can the AC output voltage be adjusted on this model?

Yes. The front-panel setting button allows adjustment across 200/220/230/240VAC, and the specification also lists 100/110/115/120VAC settings. For this product listing, the nominal output voltage is 230V.

What operating environment is the TS-400-212C designed for?

The specified operating temperature range is -10°C to +40°C at 100% load, extending to +60°C at 50% load. It includes a thermostatically controlled cooling fan, which helps manage heat during operation within its rated environment.

What protection and support features does the TS-400-212C include?

This inverter includes protection for short circuit, overload, over temperature, battery low alarm, battery low shutdown, and input reverse polarity. It also has front-panel status indication, a power ON-OFF switch, built-in remote ON-OFF control, and a 3-year warranty.
