A modified sine wave inverter is a device that converts direct current (DC) into alternating current (AC). The AC waveform it produces is close to a sine wave, but not exactly the same, hence the name “modified sine wave”. Modified sine wave inverters are commonly used in homes, outdoor activities, and small industrial equipment because they are low cost and suitable for most common appliances.
Modified sine wave inverters consist of several key components, including:
Pros | Cons |
---|---|
Improved output waveform compared to square wave inverters, with reduced harmonic content | Output waveform still differs from pure sine wave and contains some harmonics |
Relatively simple structure and lower cost | Not suitable for inductive loads such as motors and transformers |
Suitable for resistive loads like incandescent lamps and heaters | May cause interference with certain sensitive electronic devices |
When choosing a modified sine wave inverter, you need to consider the following factors:
