What Xantrex Technology does

Xantrex Technology is a Burnaby, British Columbia-based designer, manufacturer, and marketer of power electronic products for mobile and stationary applications, operating as Xantrex LLC since its founding in 1983 and currently a wholly owned subsidiary of Mission Critical Electronics. The company's product platform spans seven categories: inverters (FREEDOM X, PROwatt SW, PROsine, PRO Series, XPower), inverter/chargers (FREEDOM XC, FREEDOM XC PRO, FREEDOM XC PRO Marine, FREEDOM SW, FREEDOM HF, FREEDOM 458), battery chargers (XPLORE, TRUEcharge2, TRUEcharge3), lithium-ion batteries (12V-51V, 50Ah-410Ah), solar products (PWM and MPPT charge controllers, rigid and flexible panels), backup power units (XPower Powerpack, PowerHub), and accessories including the 2025-launched Xantrex Gateway monitoring hub. Underlying technology includes micro-processor controlled multi-stage power factor corrected charging, the proprietary Xanbus communication protocol, and integration with marine and RV networking standards NMEA 2000 and RV-C.

Xantrex serves six primary vertical markets — recreational vehicles, marine vessels, heavy duty trucks, work trucks, buses/coaches, and specialty vehicles — addressing auxiliary power, battery management, off-grid solar integration, and idle-mitigation needs for OEMs, fleet operators, and end consumers. The company holds ISO 9001:2015 certification for design, manufacture, and marketing of power conversion products, and distributes exclusively through an Authorized Dealer and Authorized Service Center (ASC) network across the US and Canada, supported by a US office in Elkhart, Indiana. Revenue is generated through hardware sales of power electronics products plus aftermarket technical support, warranty service, and parts/replacement revenue through the dealer channel, with no public pricing and quote-based dealer transactions. Brand strategy leverages an "Ambassador Program," trade show presence, an extensive technical documentation library, a Tech Doctor educational series, and integration partnerships with OEM Dynamax (eGEN systems) and idle-mitigation specialist ZeroRPM within the Mission Critical Electronics family of brands.
