It is my understanding that a 'converter' is the combination of a high-tech charger and DC power distributor. In other words, the converter will charge your batteries and help manage DC loads. An'inverter', on the other hand, allows you to run AC loads off of your batteries (in addition to charging your batteries).

For more information, including a block diagram of a basic inverter setup, I suggest this site: Xantrex Technology
