The Go Power! AIC-3000-12-SL is a 3000 watt pure sine wave inverter, a 150 amp multi-stage battery charger and a built-in 30 amp single-leg automatic transfer switch in one low-profile chassis. Plugged into shore or generator power, it passes AC through to your panel and charges your 12 volt house batteries. Unplug, and it switches to battery power in under 20 milliseconds to keep 120 volt AC flowing.
It's built for 30 amp RVs, boats and work trucks that need more inverter capacity and faster charging than the 2000 watt model. It's UL listed to UL 458, meets CSA 107.1, ABYC A31 and ABYC E11, and joins the Go Power! PowerTrak system over RV-C.
The inverter supplies 3000 watts continuously with total harmonic distortion under 3%. It handles 6000 watts for 200 milliseconds, 4800 watts for 5 seconds and 3300 watts for 5 minutes, which helps with motor starts. Go Power says that's enough to run a microwave and a coffee maker together, an induction cooktop, or a rooftop air conditioner fitted with a soft-start. Output is 120 volts at 60 Hz by default, and the PowerTrak Display can change it to 100, 110 or 115 volts or 50 Hz.
The power factor corrected charger runs bulk, absorption, float and equalize stages, with flooded, gel, AGM, LiFePO4 and custom profiles. LiFePO4 charges at 14.4 volts and floats at 14.0 volts, and the custom profile accepts absorption and float settings from 13 to 16 volts. Maximum charge current is adjustable from 5 to 150 amps. The included battery temperature sensor corrects lead-acid charge voltages by -25 mV per °C; lithium banks don't need it.
On shore or generator power, AC passes straight through to your loads and spare capacity goes to charging. Set the shore breaker limit from 10 to 30 amps (30 amps by default) so the unit never pulls more than your source can deliver. Power sharing, on by default, lets the inverter add battery power when your loads need more than that limit allows.
No-load draw is under 25 watts and standby with the inverter disabled is under 15 watts. Hibernation mode drops below 2 watts, all measured at 12.5 volts. Optional load sense waits for an AC load of 5 to 50 watts (your setting) before the inverter starts.
The RV-C port connects the AIC to the PowerTrak Display (GP-PT-DIS-3, sold separately), Go Power! Advanced Lithium Batteries and Dometic MPPT 30 and 40 amp solar controllers. From the display you change settings and watch DC voltage and current, AC input and output, temperatures and fault codes. DIP switches set the RV-C instance number, and the included power disconnect harness lets the battery power the RV-C network, as Go Power recommends. Go Power's spec sheet also lists over-the-air firmware updates.
Built-in protection covers AC over and under voltage, over-current, over and under frequency, output overload, short circuit, DC over and under voltage and over-temperature. The low battery cut-off is 10.5 volts by default and adjusts from 10.0 to 12.5 volts. A status LED shows green for AC output, blue for charging and red for a fault.
30 amp RVs with bigger loads. Run a microwave and coffee maker together from a lithium bank, then recharge at up to 150 amps on shore power.
Boats. The AIC meets ABYC A31 and E11, and the manual explains how to bond the AC and DC grounds to one common boat ground.
Work trucks. Power corded tools from the 12 volt bank during the day and recharge whenever the truck is on shore or generator power.
Both use a 30 amp single-leg transfer switch and carry a 3-year warranty. The AIC-2000-12-SL offers 2000 watts, a 4000 watt surge and a 100 amp charger on 2/0 AWG cable with a 300 amp Class T fuse. The AIC-3000-12-SL adds 1000 watts of continuous power, a 6000 watt surge and a 150 amp charger, and it calls for 4/0 AWG cable with a 400 amp Class T fuse.
Both have 3000 watts, a 6000 watt surge and a 150 amp charger. The dual-leg AIC-3000-12-DL has a 50 amp transfer switch with two AC legs for 50 amp service. The single-leg AIC-3000-12-SL is the match for 30 amp, single-phase service.
Connect only a 12 volt battery bank. Go Power estimates the unit draws about 280 amps at full inverter load and suggests 400Ah or more of lithium for sustained use, or about twice that in lead-acid. Use 4/0 AWG copper DC cables no longer than 10 feet each, with a 400 amp Class T fuse or breaker in the positive cable near the battery. The manual names the GP-DC-KIT5 install kit for this model. The unit isn't reverse polarity protected and has no output breakers, so mark your cables and fit branch-rated breakers in your panel. AC wiring is 10 AWG on a 30 amp breaker.
Mount it on a noncombustible surface, horizontally or on a wall with the terminals to the left or right, never vertically. Keep at least 6 inches of clearance around the vents and install it in a dry compartment away from moisture. It runs at full rating from -4°F to 104°F and derates above that, up to 140°F. Go Power recommends a certified RV technician or licensed electrician for the install.
The AIC runs on factory defaults without it, but Go Power calls the PowerTrak Display (sold separately) the remote required for changing settings. Out of the box it uses an AGM profile, a 120 amp maximum charge current and a 30 amp shore breaker setting, so you'll need the display to select LiFePO4, use the full 150 amps or match a smaller shore breaker.
Yes, with LiFePO4 batteries that include a battery management system. Pick the LiFePO4 profile or set a custom profile from your battery maker's charging specs.
Go Power lists a rooftop air conditioner fitted with a soft-start among the loads it can run, and doesn't recommend running the air conditioner and a microwave at the same time. The manual also states the unit isn't intended for life support or other medical equipment.
Go Power covers the AIC-3000-12-SL with a 3-year warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.
The Go Power! 3000 Watt Single-Leg Advanced Inverter Charger brings 3000 watts of pure sine power, a 150 amp charger and a 30 amp transfer switch to your 12 volt system, with PowerTrak control over RV-C. If you'd like help sizing your battery bank, cables or fusing, the Outbound Power team is happy to help.
