f you must extend the cable:
•
Use the smallest extension length possible.
•
Use at least AWG 4 gauge conductors.
•
Splice and solder the joint.
•
Protect the joints with heatshrink tubing.
Before plugging any devices into the unit, turn it on.
If the power switch is illuminated, the unit is working properly.
OUTPUT CONNECTIONS
Two standard AC receptacles are provided. Ensure that the total average load connected does
not exceed the continuous current rating of the unit.
CAUTION:
Do not apply AC voltage to the outlets. Damage caused by this action will not be
covered under warranty. An optional line input detect modification is available for UPS operation.
Consult your local representative.
CAUTION:
Do Not Reverse Connect the Input Wires. This will cause serious Damage to the
Inverter and will not be covered by Warranty.
An optional AC output cable modification is available for hardwiring to a load. Consult your
local representative for information on the modification and to specify a cable length and
termination.
LINE DETECT CONNECTION
Plug the optional LINE IN cable into a standard 110 VAC wall outlet.
The inverter will operate in Standby as long as power is available from the wall to run the
load. If there is a power failure, or the voltage falls below 98 VAC, the inverter will switch
on within a few AC cycles and take over supplying power to the load. The inverter will wait
twenty seconds after the power is restored before returning to Standby.
A separate battery charger is required for UPS operation. Plug the battery charger into the
wall, NOT the inverter.
DISCONNECTION
If you disconnect the unit to remove it for service or storage, turn the power switch on for at
least one minute after it has been disconnected from it’s input power source to discharge the
storage capacitors.
