INSTALLING THE INTELI-POWER MARINE
CONVERTER
! DANGER !
Before working on any electrical equipment, first determine
that there is no live power! Double check power connections, as
well as battery terminations.
5.1
MOUNTING LOCATION
Mount the
INTELI-POWER MARINE
converter vertically flush on
a bulkhead in a protected area away from rain or spray. Mount as
close to the batteries as possible. Ensure that there is six inches of
unobstructed area on all sides of the charger for air circulation and
cooling. See section 3 for precautions.
5.2
MOUNTING HARDWARE

positions, remove the converter/charger and drill the holes.
Depending on the model converter, Install the mounting hardware on
one side of the charger into the drilled holes, Leave these loose at this
time. Align the mounting holes on the converter/charger with the
hardware installed in the drilled holes, align and install the remaining
hardware and firmly tighten all mounting hardware. For models with
2 fans or key hole slots in the base. Mark and drill mounting holes as
above. If using the drip shield, attach the drip shield leaving the
screws loose. Position the keyholes over the screws holding the drip
shield and slide the unit in place. Install the rest of the mounting
hardware and firmly tighten.
