The Xantrex PROwatt SW 2000, MPN 806-1220, is a 12-volt true sine wave inverter rated at 1800 watts continuous and 3000 watts surge. It supplies 120-volt-class AC in RVs, heavy-duty and work trucks, specialty vehicles and boats. Xantrex positions the PROwatt SW line for demanding loads such as variable-speed power tools, advanced appliances and microwaves, within the inverter's continuous rating. The 2000 in the model name is not the continuous rating, so size sustained loads to 1800 watts. The SW 2000 is a standalone inverter. It does not charge batteries.

AC output is at dual GFCI receptacles, and a Type A USB port supplies 5 V at 500 mA. The digital display reports DC voltage, AC output power and error codes. Input range is 10.5 to 15.5 volts DC. Output is 104 to 127 volts AC at 60 Hz ±0.5 Hz, with 90% optimum efficiency and under 0.8 amps of no-load draw. The store listing gives a low-voltage alarm at 11.0 V DC and shutdown at 10.5 V DC, plus overvoltage, overload, over-temperature and GFCI protection. Xantrex lists UL 458 with Marine Supplement 01 and CSA 107.1 safety approvals and FCC Part 15 Class A EMC. The housing measures 3.9 × 11.8 × 13.7 inches and weighs 10.7 pounds.

At 1800 watts continuous, the SW 2000 draws far more DC current from a 12-volt bank than the smaller PROwatt models, and Xantrex recommends a 250 A DC fuse instead of the 150 A used on the SW 600 and SW 1000. Confirm that your battery capacity supports your expected runtime, and take DC cable size from the owner's guide for your cable length. For ignition-controlled operation, add the PROwatt SW Remote Panel, part 808-9001. For shore/inverter switching to hardwired AC circuits, add the 15 A Inline Transfer Relay, part 808-0915. Note that the relay's 15 A rating, not the inverter's 1800 W, sets the limit on the transferred circuit.

The PROwatt SW 2000 is a 12 V true sine wave inverter rated at 1800 W continuous. Check these six points before you buy.

PROwatt SW 2000 or PROwatt SW 2000I?

The PROwatt SW 2000 (806-1220) is the North American model, producing 104–127 V AC at 60 Hz from dual GFCI receptacles for standard US and Canadian appliances. This collection also lists the PROwatt SW 2000I (806-1220-01), an international version that produces 230 V AC. The two are not interchangeable: plugging 120 V appliances into a 230 V inverter can damage them, and the reverse may not operate. Choose the 806-1220 for North American 120 V equipment. The international version is listed here for comparison.

Within the North American PROwatt SW line, the SW 2000 provides the most continuous output at 1800 W, double the SW 1000's 900 W, but it requires a larger DC fuse and heavier wiring. If your loads stay under 900 W, the SW 1000 keeps DC current and installation size lower.

Is this the 120-volt or 230-volt PROwatt SW 2000?
Part 806-1220 is the North American model with 104 to 127 volts AC, 60 Hz output. The 230-volt international version is a separate product, 806-1220-01.
What battery voltage does it need?
It is a 12-volt inverter with a 10.5 to 15.5 volt DC input range.
What DC fuse does Xantrex recommend for the SW 2000?
Xantrex recommends a 250 A DC fuse. Size the DC cables from the owner's guide for your cable length.
Can it run a microwave?
Xantrex positions the PROwatt SW line for microwaves and similar appliances. Check the microwave's input wattage, not its cooking wattage, and keep it within the 1800 W continuous rating together with any other loads running at the same time.
Can the SW 2000 be hardwired into my RV panel?
Its AC output is at dual GFCI receptacles. The optional Inline Transfer Relay, part 808-0915, adds a hardwired connection and shore/inverter switching, rated at 15 A.
Is a remote included?
No. The PROwatt SW Remote Panel, part 808-9001, is sold separately and adds on/off control with ignition lockout.
