USER MANUAL
Sine-Inverter SW-100 12V
Dear Customer,
Thank you for purchasing this product. You have bought one of the most powerful, compact and reliable devices of its class.
Please make sure to read this manual carefully before operating the device.
WARNING!!! Important security advice!
•
Warning!!!
Use fluorescent lamps only with electronic starters or with an electronic transformer. Using fluorescent lamps with
normal starters will damage your inverter.
•
This unit produces alternating current of 230V and is not to be put in children’s hands!
•
Even when the unit has been turned off, there can still be 230V AC at the outlet of a while.
•
Must not be operated under adverse circumstances such as: Temperatures above 50°C, inflammable gas, solvents, vapours, dust,
humidity over 80 % rel. or water.
•
The unit must only be operated in closed, dry rooms.
•
Only devises with safety classification
II
(not ground connector) must be connected. These devises are normally quipped with a
Euro-plug.
•
Connection devises with safety classification
I
(with external ground connector) can cause danger to life.
•
As soon as you assume that operation of the unit under safe circumstances is no longer possible, unplug the unit immediately and
make sure that it not put into operation inadvertently. Operating the unit must become unsafe when the unit does not show any
signs or working or has been visibly damaged, when damage has occurred during transport or after storing the unit under
unfavourable circumstances.
•
Service and repairs - Servicing and repairs must be conducted by authorised personnel only. Only fuses of the indicated value
shall be used as replacement. No use may be made of repaired fuses or repairs by short-circuiting of the fuse.
Description
Inverters of the Sinus-family are modern, computer-controlled devices especially suited for mobile applications. The inverter converts
the low DC input voltage into a higher AC voltage.
The output signal voltage corresponds to a true sinusoidal alternating voltage. In contrast to trapezoidal alternating-current converters,
highly sensitive measurement technology equipment, computer systems, audio and DVD equipment, satellite systems, television sets,
pumps and all devices with a transformer will have a largely trouble-free operation.
The sinus inverters are distinguished by the following features:
●
Low idle power consumption
●
high efficiency
●
Low weight
●
precise voltage thresholds
●
Precise crystal-controlled 50Hz frequency
●
Under- / Over voltage protection
●
Low battery warning
●
Overload management
●
Short circuit protection
●
Low voltage shutdown
●
Reverse polarity protection
●
Soft start - for loads with high inrush current
●
true sinus output voltage
●
temperature-activated protective circuit

LED Indicator:
The LED indicates various modes of operation of the inverter.
•
LED lights continuously green
Normal operation of the inverter within specified parameters.
•
LED flashes red
The battery voltage is below nominal. Depending on the current draw,
continuing use may lead to shutdown due to too low battery voltage.
•
LED lights continuously red
o
The rated minimum voltage has been exceeded, the battery is discharged. To protect the
battery from destructive deep
discharge, the device has shut off the AC voltage.
Resetting the device is possible after the battery has reached the minimum
operating
voltage of the inverter.
o
The maximum rated short-term power of the device has been exceeded. The overload management has turned off the output
of the transformer. The attached load has too high a power consumption, too high inrush current or is defective, leading to a
short circuit in the inverter output. The transformer now attempts a warm restart five times every five seconds and then every
thirty seconds. During the restart attempt, the LED briefly glows green. If the voltage transformer does not turn on after
several restart attempts, you should disconnect the consumer load from the output of the voltage transformer and check the
function of the voltage transformer. Check the load device with mains voltage and have it repaired or maintained by a
technician in case protective components have been triggered.
