Can the inverter use a lithium battery? Is the inverter packaged with a lithium battery? The time when the inverter is designed is not short. The batteries inside the inverter are all lead-acid batteries.
Lead-acid batteries have many advantages such as stable voltage, low price, simple maintenance, stable quality and high reliability. Therefore, lead-acid batteries have long occupied the battery selection of products that require high-capacity batteries before they came out.
However, lead-acid batteries also have shortcomings such as low specific energy, short service life, frequent daily maintenance, and high risk of leakage of internal constituent materials, so that after the lithium battery is developed, its use field is gradually replaced by lithium batteries.
The inverter is also a product that uses a lead-acid battery as an internal battery. Can the internal lead-acid battery be replaced by a lithium battery pack? This problem is what the Sengeng Electric Xiaobian wants to discuss with you today.
Before discussing the battery inside the inverter, first understand the function of the inverter itself, etc., in order to better know whether it can replace the battery.
What is an inverter?
Inverter is a tool that can convert direct electrical energy into alternating current. It consists of inverter bridge, control logic and filter circuit.
When you go out to work or go out for a trip, you can use an inverter to connect the battery to drive the electrical appliances and various tools. Connect the household appliance to the output of the high power converter to use the appliance in the car.
The inverter itself consumes a part of the power when it is working, so its input power is greater than its output power.
Can the inverter use a lithium battery pack?
Nowadays, there are still many inverters equipped with a lead-acid battery. The main reason for the lead-acid battery is its stability and low cost. Merchants want to make money, and some consumers want to use it. Lower prices to buy inverters that meet basic requirements. So the lead-acid inverter market still exists.
In addition to consumers who have a fancy cost, the market also has consumers who pay attention to long-term benefits. Lithium battery packs have a longer service life, higher energy ratio, and smaller volume than lead-acid batteries. , and the safety and environmental protection aspects of lithium batteries are also better than lead-acid batteries. So the lithium battery inverter market is also there.
However, in addition to the above two consumers, there are also consumers who like to transform themselves. They like to transform the inverter that originally used lead-acid batteries into an inverter using lithium batteries. This behavior is also feasible.
However, to replace these two types of batteries, there are still many places to pay attention to. For example, the DC voltage must be matched, and the voltage of the lithium battery pack must be consistent with the nominal DC input voltage of the inverter.
For the problem that the inverter can use the lithium battery pack, it is now basically possible to draw conclusions. Many manufacturers have inverters with original lithium batteries, but the price is higher than that of inverters with lead-acid batteries. The original inverter with lead-acid battery is modified into an inverter using a lithium battery pack, which is also feasible, mainly to match the input voltage.
