Outback Power 4.0 kW, 48 VDC, 120/240 VAC Radian Series Inverter/Charger
Outback Power 4.0 kW, 48 VDC, 120/240 VAC Radian Series Inverter/Charger
Description
The Radian™ Series Grid/Hybrid™ (full-flexibility grid-interactive/off-grid) Inverter/Charger is engineered toward one goal: making system design and installation easier and faster in grid-interactive and comprehensive off-grid applications. The new Radian Series inherit the hallmark features of the original design, including: dual AC inputs for grid/generator flexibility with no external switching required, unparalleled surge capability and operational stability, easy field upgradeability. Additionally, the use of a MATE3s brings stacking capability for large system scaling, simplified system commissioning through a powerful, easy-to-use configuration wizard, and multi-mode operational flexibility.
In addition, both models have a new Advanced Battery Charging (ABC) profile option to support leading-edge battery technologies such as Lithium-Ion and others, and enhanced diagnostics for improved performance. And both incorporate OutBack’s GridZero technology, a superior level of intelligence in energy management for self-generation and self-consumption programs, providing precise balancing between using stored energy, solar and utility power, blending-in the latter to overcome surges and load spikes when needed. GridZero operation makes it possible for a smaller inverter and battery system to perform like a much larger one when required, putting stored and renewable energy sources to work and minimizing grid dependence. GridZero technology make the new Radians ideal for use in complex utility environments such as California and Hawaii.
The GS8048A and GS4048A are certified to UL1741 for US applications, and CSA C22.2 No. 107.1 for Canada, and is IEC 62109-1 certified to meet the most stringent worldwide PV safety and emission standards.
The GS7048E and GS3548E are IEC certified to meet the most stringent worldwide PV safety and emission standards.
Product Highlights:
- Grid-interactive and stand-alone capability in the same package
- 8000 and 4000 Watts of continuous power, respectively
- GridZero Technology minimizes grid dependence
- Unsurpassed surge capacity
- Field adjustable input/output voltage and frequency boundries
- Dual AC inputs
- Field serviceable modular design
- GSLC load center option allows for quick and easy installation

Troubleshooting
In the event of a product failure, the customer will need to work with an OutBack Technical Support representative to perform the necessary troubleshooting. This is a required step before a return can be performed. Troubleshooting requires a qualified technician to be present at the site of the product, with a quality voltmeter that measures both DC and AC. The OutBack representative will request voltmeter readings, product error messages, and other information. Many problems can be resolved onsite. If the customer is not willing or able to provide these readings (or is not willing or able to visit the site), and the product is found to have no problems upon return, OutBack may choose to charge additional labor and handling fees up to $180.00 USD.
Return Material Authorization (RMA)
A request for an RMA number requires all of the following information:
- Product model and serial number
- Proof-of-purchase in the form of a copy of the original Product purchase invoice or receipt confirming the Product model number and serial number
- Description of the problem
- Shipping address for the repaired or replacement equipment
Upon receiving this information, the OutBack representative can issue an RMA number.
Returning Product to OutBack
After receiving the RMA number, the customer must pack the product(s) authorized for return, along with a copy of the original purchase invoice and warranty certificate, in the original product shipping container(s) or packaging providing equivalent or reasonable protection. The RMA number must be written on the outside of the packaging where it is clearly visible.
If product is within the warranty period, OutBack will cover pre-paid shipping with prior arrangement.
The product(s) must be shipped back to OutBack Power in their original or equivalent packaging, to the following address:
OutBack Power

The customer must insure the shipment, or accept the risk of loss or damage during shipment. If a shipping box is needed for return of a product, OutBack will, upon request, send a shipping box.
IMPORTANT:
OutBack is not responsible for shipping damage caused by improperly packaged products, the repairs this damage might require, or the costs of these repairs.
If, upon receipt of the product, OutBack determines the product or product part is defective and that the defect is covered under the terms of this warranty, OutBack will then and only then ship a repaired or replacement product or product part to the purchaser freight prepaid, non-expedited, using a carrier of OutBack’s choice, when applicable.
If product fails in 90 days or fewer from the original purchase date, OutBack will replace with a new product. If product fails after 90 days and up to expiration of warranty, OutBack will, at its discretion, either repair and return a product, or ship a replacement product. OutBack will determine whether a product is to be repaired or replaced in accordance with product age and model. OutBack will authorize advance shipment of a replacement based on product age and model.
In cases where an OutBack dealer or distributor replaces a product more than 90 days old with a new product, OutBack will NOT compensate that dealer or distributor with new stock unless the exchange was authorized in advance by OutBack.
Out of Warranty
If product is out of warranty, OutBack will repair and return product for a fee. Alternately, if applicable, OutBack will advance-ship replacement parts for a fee upon request.
If a shipping box is needed for return of out-of-warranty product, OutBack will send a shipping box upon request. The customer is responsible for paying shipping to OutBack.
The warranty period of any repaired or replacement product or product part is 90 days from the date of shipment from OutBack, or the remainder of the initial warranty term, whichever is greater.
This warranty is void for any product that has been modified by the customer without authorization by OutBack. A product with a voided warranty will be treated the same as one with an expired warranty.
