Examining Contrast Between Pure Sine Wave and Modified Sine Wave Inverter



Power inverters are the machines that work to transform the DC current to AC current. Here we shall see the points of difference between pure sine wave inverters and modified sine wave inverters.
As their names also indicate, the key difference between these two devices is basically the form of sine wave they produce. A modified sine wave is a close resemblance of a square wave, which appears as a series of uniformly spaced squares when it is denoted as a waveform. On contrary to a square wave, the output of a modified sine wave stays at zero volts for a short period ahead of switching positive or negative. Quite different from appearing as a series of squares when expressed as a waveform, a pure sine wave appears as a succession of even, uniformly spaced mounds and dells. As a result of its output similar to that of a perfect sine wave, a pure sine wave inverter supplied by several home UPS manufacturers, supports all sorts of electronic appliances including specialized and sensitive equipment like audio equipment, hospital equipment and laser printers. On the other hand, its counterpart, the modified sine wave model does not support all types of electronics.
Another significant bass on which these two systems vary from one another is the energy efficiency that is offered by them. The modified sine wave model provides less efficiency as compared to the pure sine wave model. The companies that have taken the green initiatives that comprise of the energy efficiency, using the pure sine wave inverters that are transformer-less is the best decision.
